Digital IAM Governance for BMW Group - Establishing Automated Evidence and Documentation at Enterprise Scale [Intermediate]
14:30—14:50

Watch the video

 

In large-scale enterprises, IAM governance is evolving from static documentation towards dynamic, automated assurance. At BMW Group, the Digital IAM Governance initiative redefines how compliance, transparency, and operational efficiency can be achieved in complex IT environments.
 
The project focuses on creating a fully digitalized and workflow-driven IAM documentation and evidence framework. This approach ensures that access concepts, roles, and entitlements are consistently defined, validated, and auditable across the organization. By end-to-end integrating governance processes, policy controls and data from various systems, BMW builds a foundation for continuous compliance and real-time traceability of identity-related decisions.
 
In this session, BMW Group will share its strategic vision and practical experiences in transforming IAM governance into a fully digital, automated process. The presentation will explore key design principles, organizational challenges, and lessons learned on the journey towards faster, simpler, and more secure IAM governance across the enterprise.

From Configuration to Intent: How AI-Driven Design Studios Are Transforming Identity Governance [Intermediate]
14:50—15:10

Watch the video

 

Identity Governance programs continue to demand deep customization, extensive configuration, and constant redesign—placing significant burden on IAM designers and delivery teams. In this session, we introduce Tuebora’s AI-powered IGA Design Studio, a new approach that allows practitioners to translate business intent directly into governed, reusable identity artifacts across joiner/mover/leaver flows, access reviews, policies, and integrations. Attendees will see how AI-assisted design, validation, and deployment dramatically reduce manual effort while preserving auditability, governance controls, and vendor-specific precision. We will also explore real-world use cases including redesign, reuse, and migration of identity configurations—traditionally some of the most time-consuming activities in IAM. The session concludes with a practical view of how AI can elevate the role of IAM designers from configuration specialists to true governance architects.

From Fragmented to Autonomous: Building an Identity Governance Strategy for the Cloud and AI Era [Intermediate]
15:10—15:30

Identity is the breach. 90% of incident response investigations trace back to an identity weakness, and the containment window is shrinking.

Praerit Garg has been building identity and access systems since before most enterprises knew they needed them, starting at Microsoft in the early days of directory services and spending decades since at the intersection of cloud scale and enterprise security. He has a point of view on where this is going, and it isn't flattering to the status quo.

This session maps the maturity journey from fragmented point solutions to autonomous, self-healing access governance, and makes the case that getting there is a strategic decision, not a procurement one.
