Strategic roadmaps and long-term IAM architectures are important but they’re not enough. Many IAM programs fall short because they assume a fresh start and ignore the complex, fragmented and often deeply rooted legacy landscapes they are supposed to improve. This is challenging because IAM systems are the nervous system of any digital organization and migrations are always high-stakes operations involving a living organism.
This session introduces a pragmatic, reference-architecture-based IAM Maturity Assessment approach as the critical first step toward meaningful change. Rooted in the KuppingerCole Identity Fabric 2025 and the updated Reference Architecture, it offers a qualitative three-stage model that balances structure and flexibility without overwhelming complexity.
You’ll learn how to:
- Operationalize KuppingerCole's Identity Fabric and Reference Architecture 2025 with an IAM Maturity Model
- Adapt the model to your organization's individual requirements and needs
- Accurately assess the current state of your IAM landscape
- Leverage the maturity-based assessment to make informed, strategic decision
- Take the next step towards a roadmap creation, a TOM design or a tool selection
Whether you're starting a transformation, planning a migration, or just trying to improve your existing IAM landscape, this session will help you build a solid foundation by making sense of where your IAM program really stands and what is important to move forward with.
