Enterprises now manage identities that span employees, partners, customers, workloads, and emerging AI agents, each with different risk profiles and lifecycle demands. Disconnected governance, access, and threat-detection tools make it difficult to enforce policy consistently or respond to attacks quickly. An identity security fabric provides a unified architectural layer that centralizes visibility, standardizes controls, and automates responses across every identity and system.
Alejandro Leal, Senior Analyst at KuppingerCole will outline the market forces reshaping identity security, explain why siloed architectures persist, and highlight strategies for consolidating identity layers. He will share guidance from recent research and show how coordinated detection and response strengthen enterprise resilience across diverse systems and environments.
Arkadiusz Krowczynski, Principal Product Acceleration Specialist at Okta will demonstrate how to operationalize an identity security fabric using Okta’s platform, showcasing orchestration-driven response automation and protection before, during, and after authentication. He will address securing AI agents, reduce misconfigurations, and achieving unified visibility across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid ecosystems.

AI agents increasingly act on users’ behalf, yet their decisions often lack clear authority, control, and transparency, intensifying an already fragile state of digital trust. To close this gap, identity architecture must evolve. An Agentic Identity Framework, supported by CIAM platforms like Auth0, enforces explicit delegation, limits agent privileges, and creates auditable, user-aligned decision paths that keep AI activity accountable.
John Tolbert, Director of Research at KuppingerCole Analysts, will analyze how AI agents disrupt traditional identity assumptions and where existing controls fall short. He will provide background on where and how AI agents are being used in the consumer and B2B ecosystems, describe the risks of unmanaged autonomy and the architectural principles necessary to reestablish accountability, transparency, and policy-driven boundaries for agent behavior, and discuss the current and in-work standards that are being used to promote trust with agentic AI.
Michael Pattison, Senior Solutions Engineer at Auth0, will demonstrate how the Auth0 platform enables secure adoption of AI agents. He will show how to operationalize authentication, RAG-driven authorization, delegated API access, and human-in-the-loop verification. Michael will present practical CIAM patterns that reduce friction, block modern identity threats, and create transparent, trustworthy AI-enhanced customer journeys.
AI is no longer just a supporting tool — it’s becoming a semi-autonomous actor. AI agents are now automatically accessing systems, interacting with data, making decisions, and taking actions with little or no human interaction. But, as agentic AI adoption accelerates, identity and access management related challenges become critical. Misbehaving AI agents can do as much or more damage as individual human “agents”.
A recent survey shows that 91% of organizations already use AI agents, yet 44% lack any formal governance. This creates blind spots, compliance risks, and an entirely new class of security and identity threats.
Agentic AI introduces unique challenges that traditional identity systems were not built to handle: weak authentication practices, stale permissions, unauthorized data access, malware agents, and lack of visibility, to name just a few. And of course, attackers are now using AI not just to assist — but as central components of their attacks.
Securing this new AI agent ecosystem requires a unified, identity-centric approach: managing agents as first-class entities within your identity fabric, enforcing lifecycle controls, and integrating governance directly into how agents are built, deployed, and monitored.
Matthew Gardiner, Analyst at KuppingerCole, will examine the rise of AI agents and how AI is changing the nature of both general security and identity specific threats, the governance challenges of agentic systems, and the emerging best practices for secure AI adoption.
Arkadiusz Krowczynski, Principal Product Acceleration Specialist at Okta, and Michael Pattison, Senior Solutions Engineer at Okta will present how Okta’s cross-platform approach extends identity protection to AI agents. They’ll demonstrate how Okta helps organizations secure agents throughout their lifecycle across four critical phases — Detect & Discover, Provision & Register, Authorize & Protect, and Govern & Monitor — integrating seamlessly into existing identity and security frameworks.
In this video, Anders Askåsen of Okta and Martin Kuppinger, Principal Analyst at KuppingerCole Analysts, discuss the lessons that organizations can learn from the financial services industry on compliance and multi-factor authentication (MFA). They focus on DORA and NIS, upcoming regulations that will impact the financial services industry and other organizations. They discuss the need for strong MFA and the importance of context in authentication. They also explore what other industries can learn from the financial services sector's experience.
Sie kennen das Sprichwort mit dem Tier, das durch das Dorf getrieben wird. Zero Trust könnte mal wieder dieses Tier sein.
Doch Zero Trust gehört nicht in diese Kategorie und ist ein absolut notwendiges Sicherheitskonzept in Zeiten, in denen Unternehmen mit extrem kostenintensiven Angriffen wie Ransomware konfrontiert werden. Daher beleuchten wir in diesem Vortrag ganz aktuelle Szenarien und was es braucht, um derer Herr zu werden.
2020 pushed the notion of trust to the forefront of all our lives. It made customer trust in brands acutely important to the bottom line amidst a severe economic recession. It also forced many organisations to overcome long-standing reservations about trusting their employees to work from home and placing their faith in digital channels to serve customers.
Inspired by this quote from Mark Carney, the former Governor of the Bank of Canada (2008-2013) and the Governor of the Bank of England (2013 -2020), we will take a look at how identity and trust are intimately connected, yet how fragile they are in the digital world. And, using two customer examples, we’ll show you how critical identity is to establishing trust and enabling seamless digital experiences in our daily lives.
Da mittlerweile mehr als zwei Drittel aller Beschäftigten remote arbeiten, möchten Unternehmen Ihren Nutzern sichere und flexible Arbeitsmöglichkeiten über alle Plattformen und Geräte hinweg anbieten. Und da sich 85% Ihres Datenverkehrs bereits in der Cloud befindet, schützen Sie Ihre Nutzer und Daten am besten mit Security aus der Cloud. Aber wie?
Verteilte IT-Umgebungen, der Einsatz einer Vielzahl von SaaS-Anwendungen, hybride IT und Multi-Cloud-Strategien: All das führt zu einer unübersichtlichen Zahl verteilter Identitäten in den zugrundeliegenden Systemen. Eine solche jenseits des Perimeters gewachsene IT-Landschaft bietet neue Angriffsfläche für Cyberangriffe und birgt Sicherheitsrisiken. Zero Trust ist die Antwort. Doch wie baut man das notwendige Vertrauen in einer Zero Trust Welt auf?
