How mature is your identity security strategy?

Discover the 5 horizons of identity security and take the assessment to see where you sit.

Identity security is a strategic enabler and core to securing your business. The SailPoint Maturity Assessment provides three simple steps to help you analyse where you currently are, and devise a plan forward to garner the buy-in you need.

Assess your current capabilities

Understand where your organisation is in the identity journey. Pinpoint areas most urgent to address in your IAM program, uncovering the most value.

Build a business case with SailPoint

Understand the roadmap for your identity transformation and the costs of an identity program.

Start the transformation

Target identity capabilities that span across the entire organisation and are inherently cross-functional. Securing support, sponsorship and buy-in from executive leadership is key.

The future of identity security

Business leaders across industries are recognising that next-generation digital identities will be essential to enable seamless collaboration with business partners, boost operational efficiency, comply with rising cybersecurity and privacy regulations, and reduce cybersecurity risks. As a result, the future of identity will be shaped by ongoing technology shifts. 

Identity security horizons

We surveyed IAM decision makers across the globe to define the capabilities across different horizons of the identity journey. We also explored the value drivers for each horizon based on different business goals.

45%

of companies fall into horizon 1 – they are at the beginning of the identity journey.

We found that companies going through an identity journey generally fall across 5 horizons:

  • At Horizon 1, the lowest maturity, companies lack the strategy and technology to enable digital identities
  • Those at Horizon 2 have adopted some identity technology but still rely heavily on manual processes
  • For organisations at Horizon 3, the identity program has become digitalised, scaled up, and adopted more widely across the company
  • Those at Horizon 4 have automated at scale and use artificial intelligence (AI) to enable digital identities
  • At Horizon 5 is closest to the future of identity – serving as a critical control point in reducing cybersecurity risk and supporting business in next-gen technology innovation

Where a company falls on this journey depends not only on technical capabilities, but also on the company’s strategy, operating model, and talent.
