EP218 IAM in the Cloud & AI Era: Navigating Evolution, Challenges, and the Rise of ITDR/ISPM
Update: 2025-04-07
Description
Guest:
- Henrique Teixeira, Senior VP of Strategy, Saviynt, ex-Gartner analyst
Topics:
- How have you seen IAM evolve over the years, especially with the shift to the cloud, and now AI? What are some of the biggest challenges and opportunities these two shifts present?
- ITDR (Identity Threat Detection and Response) and ISPM (Identity Security Posture Management) are emerging areas in IAM. How do you see these fitting into the overall IAM landscape? Are they truly distinct categories or just extensions of existing IAM practices?
- Shouldn’t ITDR just be part of your Cloud DR or maybe even your SecOps tool of choice? It seems goofy to try to stand ITDR on its own when the impact of an identity compromise is entirely a function of what that identity can access or do, no?
- Regarding workload vs. human identity, could you elaborate on the unique security considerations for each? How does the rise of machine identities and APIs impact IAM approaches?
- We had a whole episode around machine identity that involved turtles–what have you seen in the machine identity space and how have you seen users mess it up?
- The cybersecurity world is full of acronyms. Any tips on how to create a memorable and impactful acronym?
