- What is Identity Resilience and why is it trending with CISOs?
- How to build a strong partnership between risk teams and security teams.
- Myths vs. realities of Disaster Preparedness for IAM environments.
- Why most IAM backup plans are woefully inadequate.
- Why regulators and insurers are starting to pay attention.
