Governing Non-Human Identities with Proven IGA Principles [Introductory]
11:00—11:20

Watch the video

 

The rise of non-human identities (NHI) is undeniable - and their presence is growing at an astonishing rate. With estimates suggesting there are 25 to 50 times more non-human identities than human ones, it’s no surprise that NHIs and their management are now a focal point for identity professionals.

Have you thought about governing non-human identities? While most NHI approaches focus on credential management, API access, and security, there’s another crucial angle: the very essence of non-human identities themselves. This is where identity governance comes into play.

In this talk, we will explore how the proven principles of identity governance and administration (IGA) can be seamlessly applied to non-human identities and the benefits that come with it. You will learn how to leverage your existing IGA deployment and extend it to cover both human and non-human identities by using governance principles like ownership and responsibility for NHIs. By utilizing a modern IGA platform, you’ll create a unified foundation for managing both types of identities.

How and Why IGA Programs Fail - A Case Study [Intermediate]
11:40—12:00

Watch the video

 

It is said that there is no better teacher than failure. And in Jon Lehtinen’s experience, there is no IAM program more prone to providing those lessons than launching Identity Governance within an established organization. According to Gartner, traditional IGA projects fail to achieve functional, budgetary, or timing commitments 50% of the time. Why is that? In this talk, Jon Lehtinen invites you to learn from his experience with failure by delving into a case study of one such troubled IGA implementation as seen from his perspective. He will highlight everything he would do differently to sidestep the hazards, pitfalls, opportunities, and misaligned expectations to ensure a robust IGA program takes root so you may avoid making the same mistakes he has.
