Identity and access management (IAM) is a balancing act. On the one hand, organizations need to mature their capabilities as corporate assets increasingly live outside the traditional security perimeter. On the other hand, this can't come at the cost of complicating the end-user experience. By focusing on five pillars of IAM, organizations can strike a balance, and give the right users the right level of access to enterprise resources at the right time. Join host Robb Boyd as he speaks with WWT's Mike Wampler, Principal Security Consultant, and Maafu Shabaz, Principal Consultant. They'll discuss how organizations can adopt identity principles and practices to drive a cohesive, strategic approach to IAM.

The rising concern of cyber breaches within the enterprise has organizations grappling to figure out, just how secure are we?

Zero Trust is a framework that combines Identity and Access Management (IAM), Enterprise Segmentation and other security components to provide "least access" protection to corporate networks and resources.
