Ermetic, the cloud access risk security company, today announced it is hosting a webinar with guest speaker Andras Cser, Vice President, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research entitled “What’s Identity Governance Got to Do with It?” on March 3, 2021.
WHO: Andras Cser, Vice President, Principal Analyst Serving Security & Risk Professionals, Forrester Research is a leading expert on identity management, access management, user account provisioning, entitlement management, federation, privileged identity management, and role design and management. Andras covers cloud security and enterprise fraud management, which have many synergies with identity and access management when an organization needs to protect against risk and wants to manage fraud appropriately. He helps clients develop enterprise strategies for creating business value through identity management, cloud security, and fraud management.
WHAT: Businesses are moving their IT systems from data centers to the public cloud for agility and flexibility, but they may not be fully aware of the security risks that arise from excessive permissions granted to humans and services. In his presentation, Andras will explain how a lack of visibility and control over access and entitlements to compute, storage and network assets jeopardizes sensitive business resources and security posture. He will discuss the components necessary to implement a cloud identity governance program, including strategies for mapping and analyzing access to reduce the cloud attack surface, applying automation to access policy reviews and recertifications and IAM permissions. He will also cover how cloud identity governance not only reduces security threats, but also helps address both data protection and privacy compliance mandates.
