Pre-Conference Workshop Session
Build a zero trust identity access management and governance roadmap for your institution
While universities and colleges struggle to keep pace with the insurgence of cybersecurity attacks, many are seeking advice on how to implement zero trust security models while modernizing identity access management & governance programs. Join Bravura Security and Identity Works to get guidance on how to do both: generate a zero trust identity access management and governance assessment and roadmap outline for your institution. Attendance is limited to the first 60 who register.
Session Outcomes
-
Learn how a Zero Trust security model can reduce cybersecurity risk and protect your institution through today’s attack vector: identities.
-
Work through the ten-step identity access management and governance assessment including business process and technical analysis, how they affect one another, identifying gaps, and determining how to select a vendor to meet your institution’s identity access management and governance requirements.
-
Gain first-hand knowledge about which IAM & IGA roadmap strategies work (or not), which quick wins offer visible results, and which are part of projects or programs.
-
Produce a roadmap outline for your institution with benchmarks to other institutions and strategies to achieve your institution’s goals.

Online Panel Discussion
Stop stagnating: modernize your identity access management & governance program with achievable projects
Very few Higher Education institutions have modernized their identity access management solutions. Why? There are a plethora of reasons but ultimately many institutions don’t have the budget and don’t know where to start in what seems like a daunting, expensive, and risky program. The result? Institutions keep legacy or homegrown tools and solutions in place that are no longer up to the task, are eating up more budget than they’re worth, or are putting schools’ research, data, finances, and reputation at risk every day.
Join this discussion to learn from a panel of experts on the practical approach to prepare to modernize your access management solution. Learn where to focus time and effort to reduce post-production surprises. Get actionable steps on how to establish your requirements and plan your projects to achieve incremental steps that are highest visibility, highest impact, and give your institution the biggest bang for its buck.
