Adaptive identity: Keeping security in step with innovation

Summary

Traditional identity and access management (IAM) was not built for the speed and scale of modern, AI-driven environments. As human and non-human identities multiply, the old models of periodic reviews create an ever-widening security gap. This IDC white paper explores how an adaptive identity strategy shifts security from a static, governance-based problem to a dynamic, real-time control plane, enabling you to innovate securely and with confidence.

Learn how to build an identity strategy that keeps pace with innovation:

• Shrink the privilege exposure window by limiting access to only the required duration.
• Interrupt identity-based attacks during execution, moving to active enforcement.
• Build verifiable evidence for access decisions to ensure AI agents operate securely.
