Reflections from Gartner IAM London: Visibility Leads to Observability

The Gartner Identity and Access Management (IAM) Summit in London focused on the importance of understanding one's identity graph, a map of human and machine identities across an organization. This includes employees, external partners, service accounts, and sensitive secrets like keys and certificates. The summit highlighted the need for visibility and observability to avoid breakdowns caused by hackers, and outlined three main steps: discovering identities, calculating risk scores, and discovering resources, entitlements, and policies. By achieving this understanding, organizations can reduce attack surfaces, prevent privilege creep, simplify compliance, and create a safer and more secure environment.
