Many organizations are interested in establishing a resilient and comprehensive approach to IAM by building an Identity Fabric, but it's not always easy to know where to start and how to do it right. During this discussion, we'll explore how both IGA and Zero Trust principles can play a big part in maturing your Identity Fabric. 

Attendees will gain insights on identity governance, ensuring that access is approved and reviewed on a regular basis, and controls that enforce policy and ensure that they stay relevant and effective.  We'll also discuss how to establish a robust security framework that not only shields against unauthorized access, but also fortifies defenses against phishing, insider threats, and broader cybersecurity vulnerabilities. 

We will spend time on each IAM component to show what each should be delivering, and how they can interact. Finally, an IAM strategy approach is discussed, the often-missed components of an IAM Program. 

The topics covered during this workshop include:

+  Understanding the principles of Zero Trust.
+  Defining an Identity Fabric, including the capabilities and benefits.
+  Clarifying the important role that having an effective IGA strategy plays in maturing your Identity Fabric, and how to build one.
+  Outlining how an Identity Fabric can be effectively leveraged to implement each principle of Zero Trust
+  The role of IGA, PAM, and AM and how they expand with an Identity Fabric 
+  The role of compliance in IAM, and how to improve adherence to controls and audits 
+  The areas of an Identity Fabric that SailPoint addresses 

Bonus #1: Attendees of this IAM workshop will be eligible for a free 1:1 follow-up IGA/IAM Essentials workshop with Integral Partners.  We can also cover the SailPoint platform to help you understand their ecosystem so that you can make informed choices

Bonus #2:  We will be raffling off (4) Apple AirTags to those that attend!

Workshop: Building an IGA Strategy to Mature Your Identity Fabric

As high-profile breaches dominate headlines and decimate share prices, demonstrating your ability to protect client data has become the latest IT imperative getting boardroom attention, along with a host of new analyst and vendor-created labels for the ‘perfect’ solution. 

The people we talk to are still wrestling with cloud governance and shadow IT from a security perspective. 

We want to help those who are short on time and resources cut through the bewildering landscape of buzzwords and gold standards by offering some practical, vendor-agnostic advice on where best to start and how to get the biggest wins in reducing their firms' exposure to risk. 

We’ll be discussing: 

- How/where should you start transforming the way you address these risks 
- Microsoft E5 – can it do everything? 
- Where can you get the biggest bang for your buck in trying to reduce your organisation's exposure to risk?

The "Work from Anywhere" culture has become firmly ingrained in the modern enterprise and is changing the architecture of the enterprise network, from the branch to the datacentre to the cloud. In this session, we will talk about Xalient’s offering built on the foundation of Fortinet’s unique security-driven networking approach to converge enterprise-grade security and networking for all network edges and the role it plays in the overall secure access services edge (SASE) framework. Fortinet recently announced the industry’s most comprehensive cloud-delivered security services enabling the hybrid enterprises to enable consistent security across all the users. Powered by our organic innovations in FOS, our SASE framework is fast to deploy and intuitive to manage, delivering an excellent user experience and better threat protection.

SASE: the key to securing your business transformation

Why did some organisations respond better than others to the lockdown-driven challenge of getting people working from home? According to a recent survey of CIO WaterCooler members, a key factor could be how far they had got towards implementing coherent and comprehensive identity and access management capabilities, or IdAM as it’s known. Before COVID-19, better IdAM was often seen as merely ‘nice to have’, but the pandemic has stripped away that illusion.

Join us as we explore:
-  The findings from our recent report, in partnership with Okta and CIO WaterCooler
-  The accelerated importance of IdAM 
-  The implications on digital transformation programmes

Attendees will receive a free download of the report in full.

IdAM: New Normal Demands Urgent Focus On Security & Simplification

SD-WAN is a game-changer for digital transformation and an enabler for using cloud services.

Organisations adopting SD-WAN often begin their transformation with a gradual switch to internet access circuits, typically as their MPLS circuits contracts expire. But as soon as you implement the first internet access circuit at one of your sites, your organisation’s security posture changes.

Join us for our upcoming webinar as we discuss the impact SD-WAN has on network security and how you can ensure your organisation stays secure through its digital transformation.

On the webinar, we'll explore the key questions, priorities and considerations around an organisation's network, and its security, that IT decision-makers should be conscious of when undergoing a digital transformation.

This is an SD-WAN webinar hosted by Mark Cooke, Xalient's Chief Operating Officer, with presenters Stephen Amstutz, Head of Technical Strategy and Stephen Smithers, Principal Consultant.

What impact does SD-WAN have on network security?

Aimed at IT teams and decision-makers currently evaluating or deploying an SD-WAN, this webinar will help you understand what SD-WAN managed service capabilities are crucial for achieving your business objectives and how best to evaluate various managed service offerings.


You're considering SD-WAN as the right solution for your organisation - with the potential to improve the performance of your applications through efficient bandwidth utilisation and thereby enable you to accelerate your business.
However, implementing and managing an SD-WAN is a challenge. Working with the right partner to manage your SD-WAN can help you realise the benefits faster. But how do you know which one is right for you?

This is the first webinar in an SD-WAN series hosted by Steve Tucker, Xalient UK Sales Director with presenters Kieran Darlow, Head of Managed Services and David McGrail, Principal Consultant.
