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

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.
