That likely sounds like the grandma responding to the wolf’s knock in “Little Red Riding Hood.” But addressing those questions and more is key to identity, credential and access management. Get insights on how to scale ICAM in our new e-book.
Who’s there? What do you want? That likely sounds like the grandma answering the wolf’s knock in Little Red Riding Hood? The truth is, identity management isn’t that far off. Agencies are asking the same questions — who, what, when, where, why, and how — but in real time, across every user, system, and data stream.
As federal agencies accelerate their zero trust strategies, identity, credential, and access management (ICAM) has become mission-critical. The Defense Department is taking a federated approach, enabling single identities to securely span multiple systems. But with every badge, credential, and privilege comes both opportunity and risk — and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
Industry leaders like John Baase of DISA and Michael Saintcross of Optiv + ClearShark emphasize the need for dynamic identity management. That means:
Moving toward zero standing privilege
Dynamically provisioning and deprovisioning access
Leveraging AI to proactively identify and block adversaries before they escalate privilege
The goal is clear: eliminate unnecessary exposure, strengthen your cyber posture, and reduce the attack surface — all while enabling the mission.
