In this episode of Minerva Meets, I sit down with Hanno Ekdahl, CEO of Idenhaus, to discuss the foundations of Identity and Access Management (IAM) and why it plays such a critical role in cybersecurity.

Identity may not always be the most visible part of a security program, but it sits at the center of how organizations manage access, protect systems, and maintain accountability. As companies grow, adopt cloud technologies, and support hybrid work environments, managing identity becomes more complex.

Hanno shares insights from over two decades of experience helping organizations from mid-sized businesses to Fortune 50 companies design identity programs that scale with their operations.

Together, we explore why identity initiatives stall, the role of data and process in successful implementations, and why identity requires more than just a technology solution.
