Identity Sprawl Is the New Shadow IT: What CISOs Need to Know

Identity Sprawl Is the New Shadow IT: What CISOs Need to Know Webinars Identity Sprawl Is the New Shadow IT: What CISOs Need to Know About the Session Identities are everywhere now: AD, cloud consoles, SaaS apps, and code pipelines. Human and non-human accounts pile up fast. Many are over-permissioned, stale, or poorly owned. That creates blind spots, audit pain, and easy paths for attackers.

In this session, fractional CISO Kip Boyle and David Faulk will show how to spot and shrink identity sprawl without slowing the business. We’ll outline a simple playbook: discover, classify, right-size access, and keep it clean with ongoing monitoring. The SE will run a short live demo to map hidden or risky identities, surface stale credentials, and show quick wins with ITDR/PAM controls. You’ll leave with steps you can act on this quarter and metrics to prove value.

Who should attend: CISOs, IAM leaders, SecOps/ITOps managers, cloud/platform owners.
