For over twenty years, organizations have relied on "standing access" and slow-moving Joiner/Mover/Leaver (JML) processes, leaving massive windows of exposure for attackers to exploit. Even modern Just-in-Time (JIT) efforts often rely on manual approvals that create delays and encourage "rubber stamping" rather than verifying actual business need.

It is time to evolve. This session introduces the Continuous Identity Maturity Model (CIMM), a practical framework for advancing your access security posture. We will explore the operational shift from risky, point-in-time access to the gold standard: session-bound, ephemeral access.

Attendees will learn:

• How to map their current Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) and PAM implementations against the CIMM.
• How to narrow "access exposure windows" by moving from manual, time-bound provisioning to event-based, needs-bound access.
• Practical steps to achieve Zero Standing Privilege (ZSP) and real-time session termination without ripping and replacing your existing infrastructure.
