Description: Remember the good old days, when all we ever needed to worry about in Identity was workforce and customer access? … Just kidding, there never were any good old days like that. Unfortunately, the realities of technical limitations, budgetary constraints and enterprise leadership attention spans has meant that an entire universe of identities have been neglected for at least the last 30 years. The vast majority of companies, organizations and agencies around the world have either willfully ignored this massive problem or have addressed it by signing off on risk acceptances. The catastrophic exploits of the last two years have clearly shown that both approaches aren’t just failing strategies – but that they are actively enabling greater and greater losses and damage.

It isn’t the identities you know that are your greatest risk anymore, it is all of the identities you don’t that are you largest unmitigated risk and threat. Technology has caught up, identity ascription is achievable and frameworks like Zero Trust functionally demand that you know who and what is on the wire. In this session, Richard Bird, “The Guy With The Bowtie”, dives deep into the world of all other identities and how to tackle the challenge.
