Beyond Human Identity in FinServ: Securing Machine Identities at Scale
5:30pm -8:30pm ET | New York City, NY
Event Overview
Financial institutions are adopting millions of machine identities to support automation, cloud, and AI—but many organizations often lack visibility and control, leading to certificate outages and security risks.

Roundtable Takeaways:
- What are the non-human identities and where machine identity fits in your IAM program.
- How machine identity growth can disrupt financial services.
- Insights from a CIO study on the top machine identity challenges.
- The risks of fragmented secrets, certificate, and workload identity management.
