6 Learning Objectives for the Gartner IAM Summit
It’s always good to establish a list of goals for any learning event. What are your core objectives this year for the Gartner IAM Summit?
If you need some inspiration, here are six outcomes you might want to add to your list.
With these in hand, you can set out to find the right answers to today’s most pressing identity security challenges:
- I can manage identity risks across the entire identity fabric.
- I can confidently respond to breached identities faster.
- I know of some top-level “quick and dirty” hygiene and risk remediation initiatives I can push to be more resilient.
- I found some key innovations that can help me to do less with more.
- I understand how threats and risks have evolved and what I should focus on.
- How an Identity program works with designated roles and responsibilities to bridge the gap between IAM and Security.
Hint: If you schedule a meeting with Rezonate onsite, we can show you how to check all of these off! 😉

Mastering the Many Dimensions of Identity Security
There are two sides to the Identity coin – the efficacy and operational side and the security and risk mitigation side. Another dimension of identity is the preventative side and the responsive side. Organizations must get better at identity hygiene to proactively keep identity secure. And when an attack is underway, IAM and Security teams must respond quickly and accurately. Today, this is proving to be a monstrous challenge that Rezonate is here to solve.
Identity and access are the connective tissues of business growth. The right identity-centric security approach can deliver multiple business outcomes, resulting in great value. The key is bringing all of the disparate systems and identity silos and closing the gaps between security and identity. With this unified, identity-first approach, you can bring it together for better context and knowledge of what’s happening across your identity fabric.
The sessions and frameworks the analysts will share are going to start helping address this for you. Whether you are an Identity Architect or a Security Analyst, you will surely gain some great insights that will help you take IAM to the next level this year. If you need a complimentary identity-centric solution that helps you with identity threat detection and response, identity hygiene, and overall identity intelligence, Rezonate can help.

Grab Peers and Have a Little Fun
Identity can be intense. Don’t forget to take a few breaks and make time for some fun while you’re in London! Why not take some time to explore the city’s vibrant culture and rich history? The InterContinental Hotel London is in the O2 entertainment district in southeast London, offering many dining options and activities such as axe throwing, movies, indoor skydiving, and more. They even have a golf range, a six-minute walk from the hotel.
If you’ve got extra time, you can hop on the tube to do some sightseeing at Buckingham Palace and the Tower of London. March in London can be brisk, so pack accordingly with layers and a sturdy umbrella.
