AI-powered governance, machine identities, predictive analytics: the IAM industry never runs out of promising trends. But let's be honest: most organizations are wrestling with entirely different problems. Overcomplicated solutions, exploding license costs, and the eternal question: "Do we actually need all this?"

In this session, we cut through the noise. Together with our customer Matthias from GLS we‘ll have an open dialogue about what IAM really looks like in day-to-day operations. We'll walk through real scenarios: Are NHIs really new for companies and do require special treatment? What do you do when fancy AI features recommend access based on historically wrong assignments? Or when the gap between vendor promises and actual capabilities slows down your IAM rollout?

Our goal: Don't panic when Joiner, Mover, Leaver processes cause sleepless nights. Most of the time a simple, straightforward solution with reduced complexity is exactly the right approach. Join us to get the bare truth about real life issues and solutions, focusing on real cases and implementations, independent of which tool your company has chosen.
