🚨 Presenting at Gartner IAM 2024! 🚨 Veza’s Chief Strategist, Rich Dandliker, will dive deep into a critical topic at this year’s conference: Why Enterprises are Avoiding Siloed Solutions in Non-Human Identity Security. Organizations are waking up to the significant risks non-human identities (NHIs) can pose when not properly secured. While some new players offer “NHI-only” solutions, strategic leaders know that NHIs and human identities share common ground. To truly mitigate risk, it’s essential to adopt a unified approach that covers: 🔍 Discovery 👤 Ownership ⚖️ Governance 📊 Lifecycle Management Join us on Dec 9, 3:15 PM - 3:45 PM, as we explore why NHI security can't exist in silos and how a holistic strategy is key to future-proofing your identity security programs. https://lnkd.in/ec4EsBay #GartnerIAM #Cybersecurity #NonHumanIdentities #IdentitySecurity #ThoughtLeadership #IAM

🔐 What’s the real risk of non-human identities (NHIs)? Many attacks involve stolen NHI credentials, giving attackers access to SaaS or cloud environments and enabling lateral movement. NHIs are now the largest and fastest-growing part of the identity attack surface—making them a critical security focus.Hear from cybersecurity leaders like Phil Venables, Elizabeth Butwin Mann, and more in this fast-paced, 3-hour virtual event—now available on-demand! 👉 Watch the NHI Summit today: https://lnkd.in/eN4Fnutc

Last week @ NYSE I had the opportunity to speak with Judy Khan Shaw as part of Lightspeed and Fortune Cyber 60 celebrations. Since Veza's public launch less than 3 years ago, we have already made a significant impact on the identity industry. The world of identity has taken notice and new companies are entering this space every day to join this movement of reforming the way the world thinks about identity. This immense shift stems from Veza's core beliefs that: 1- Achieving the "principle of least privilege" is the answer to modern day security and must be the north star for all companies 2- The only way to "De-Risk the Breach" is by securing access at the source: permissions and entitlements 3- The traditional identity approach is fractured and unsuited for today's threat landscape. Identity needs the next-generation identity platform that serves multiple teams; it no longer can lie solely with IT. Identity is a team sport. Veza is the access control fabric that enables organizations to have clear visibility, control access workflows, manage the access lifecycle and use AI-powered technology (Access AI!) to ensure they accomplish and sustain least privilege at scale. With Intelligent Access at the core of our platform, we address critical challenges in PAM for Cloud and SaaS, next-gen IGA, SaaS security, Data Systems Access, and Non-Human Identity (NHI) Security for organizations like Blackstone Snowflake Instacart Wynn Resorts SoFi Intuit Warby Parker and many more. We are grateful to NYSE for recognizing the progress we are making in the world of identity and featuring this milestone on the floor! https://lnkd.in/gSXaqNuD #identitysecurity #cybersecurity #leastprivilege #GenAI #Cyber60

Please read my latest thoughts on building effective identity security programs that actually work.
