Ep 9: The Identity World is Calling for Innovation


Listen Later

In this episode of Access Granted, Nauman Mustafa sits down with Art Poghosyan, co-founder and CEO of Britive, to discuss the evolving landscape of identity and access management (IAM) in the cloud era. 

Drawing on over 20 years of experience, Art shares the journey of building Britive, the challenges of transitioning from traditional IAM solutions to cloud-native approaches, and the critical role of ephemeral access and Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP) in securing multi-cloud environments. The conversation also delves into the growing importance of managing non-human identities (NHIs), the rise of AI-driven innovations in IAM, and how companies can make informed decisions in a crowded and noisy cybersecurity market. 

Key Takeaways: 

  • The cloud paradigm shift as static on-prem environments are left behind for dynamic, cloud-native or hybrid environments instead. 

    • How just-in-time (JIT) access can be used to achieve true zero standing privileges (ZSP) by granting access only upon request. 

      • How the rise of NHIs and service accounts present unique challenges that necessitate specific security strategies. 

        • How incorporating customer feedback and requirements directed feature development for Britive’s multi-cloud PAM platform. 

          • Why choosing solutions based on organizational requirements is key to navigating a saturated security market. 

            • A look into the future as AI, Kubernetes, SaaS applications, and other platforms continue to impact identity and access management strategies.
