New School Access Compliance and Risk Management InnovationDate and Time: Wednesday, April 23, 14:00-15:00 CET When companies first sought to balance the rapid pace of business with maintaining compliance with industry and regulatory mandates, they intuitively turned to existing identity management solutions as the fastest path for addressing many of the questions that had to be resolved to demonstrate compliance. But while identity management has provided value for many of these requirements, it still leaves critical gaps that companies have been forced to fill themselves through time-consuming, manual processes or home-grown systems. For these companies, continuous compliance means continuous repetition of hard labor using manual tools. As the deluge of regulatory mandates requiring access-related controls has grown, the need for a more efficient approach to managing access compliance and related business risk has become critical for global organizations. To address these issues, a new wave of companies has emerged to effectively address access governance. Unlike their predecessors, which pre-dated most regulations, these solutions were architected from their inception with compliance and business processes in mind, enabling a streamlined and automated approach to access compliance certification and role lifecycle management. Deployment of these next-generation solutions leads to a sustainable and auditable strategic business process that substantially reduces risk from inappropriate access. This panel will address:
Putting Context in Identity: Governance, Compliance, Entitlement and RolesDate and Time: Wednesday, April 23, 15:00-16:00 CET Pundits talk about "Identity is center" or "Identity is the base" or even "Identity is the platform" in attempting to place Identity within the correct context of electronic interactions. But Identity won't fully deserve that core place until we can put more context into the identity transactions. It's only through knowing the full context – the Who, What, When, Where, How and Why – of an Identity event that we can properly determine the action that should follow. Governance facilitates Compliance just as Role management facilitates Entitlement. But context eases the management of both Governance and Roles. Context is key to more automated, less expensive, GRC solutions. Workshop: The Role of Roles in Compliance – A Practical ApproachDate and Time: Friday, April 25, 14:00-17:30 CET Enterprise role management is quickly becoming a critical technology for enabling organizations to verify and enforce regulatory policies and to audit the effectiveness of internal controls over user access. But due to complexity and marketplace confusion, many companies struggle to find an approach that delivers practical and timely results. This workshop is designed to help technical leaders adopt a pragmatic strategy for managing roles as part of a successful governance, risk management, and compliance initiative. SailPoint's Chief Technology Officer, Darran Rolls, will provide an in-depth look at role management concepts and technologies. And, he'll offer recommendations that can help organizations achieve practical benefits with roles. Points of discussion include:
Workshop participants will gain the theoretical and practical knowledge they need to develop clear action plans for tackling role management in their organizations and to determine the most appropriate approach for the needs of their identity infrastructure and compliance objectives.
