Enterprises need to make security and access more intuitive for their employees, partners and customers in order to protect transactions and facilitate instant engagement. Identity anchors digital businesses as operations scale across cloud, mobile and IoT. The current spotlight on IAM is surfacing new innovations in behavioral authentication, distributed consensus management, smart analytics and malware defense and is ushering in a new era of “Intelligent Identity,” at pace with the world’s most exciting emerging technology trends.
International thought leaders, technical experts and business executives will present research, innovations, case studies, best practices and trends, which are contributing to a future powered by “Intelligent Identity” at the 2017 Cloud Identity Summit.

The Cloud Identity Summit curates talks from bleeding edge thinkers and futurists alongside in-the-trenches practitioners and executives to push identity breakthroughs into the future.”
