UPCOMING EVENTS

 

Overview

Identity continues to be foundational to cybersecurity and the running of your business from hybrid work to customer access. Conventional approaches to identity and access management (IAM) are no longer sufficient as organizations operate in an escalating threat environment where zero trust is a must-have.

11:30 AM – 12:30 PM: The Fatal Silo: Why Separating Identity and Data Security Is Your Next Breach Waiting to Happen 

Ammar Faheem, Product Marketing Director for Customer Identity & Access Management, Thales

The perimeter is dead, and the firewall has become irrelevant to the modern attacker. Yet, most organizations continue to treat Identity Access Management (IAM) and Data Security as distant cousins, operating in isolated silos with separate tools and strategies. This disconnect creates the ultimate blind spot for the enterprise: “Shadow Access” to “Shadow Data.” This session will confront the uncomfortable reality that while you are busy watching the network gate, attackers are already inside, using valid credentials to exploit data you didn’t even know was exposed. 

Dissect the critical convergence of these two domains with Ammar, analyzing why “Identity-First Security” is the new mandate for survival. Moving beyond the buzzwords of Zero Trust, plus explore the tactical intersection of Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) and Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM). We will speak about why the most dangerous threat today isn’t the hacker breaking in, but the over-permissioned user—human or machine—who has seamless, unmonitored access to your organization’s crown jewels. 

Join industry leaders as we map out the blueprint for a unified future. We will debate the necessary death of the silo, discuss how to operationalize the “Cybersecurity Mesh,” and provide actionable steps to build a context-aware security fabric. Don’t just manage identities and lock down data; learn how to fuse them into a single, intelligent shield that stops the breach before exfiltration begins.
