In today’s complex, data-driven cloud environments, the greatest risk isn’t just a data breach—it’s a breach of trust. As organizations shift more applications and sensitive data to the cloud, identity has emerged as the new control plane for securing access.

Yet many still face challenges: siloed identity systems, inconsistent access policies, and a growing landscape of threats—from misconfigurations to AI-driven fraud.

Join Rob Otto, EMEA CTO at Ping Identity, to learn how global enterprises are using identity-first security strategies to re-establish control, simplify cloud access, and protect critical data—without compromising user experience. This session will explore how adaptive identity can underpin a resilient cloud posture, empower zero trust initiatives, and build confidence in every digital interaction.

Key learnings:

  • Why identity is critical to securing multi-cloud and hybrid environments—and how to get it right.
  • How to use AI-driven identity threat protection to counter deep fakes, account takeover and API-based attacks.
  • Practical ways to unify identity across users, apps and ecosystems to reduce risk and improve agility.
