Modern IAM: Decentralized Solutions for Evolving Threats - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Identity and access management is at a crossroads. Reliant on passwords and centralized directories, traditional IAM can’t meet the demands of today’s distributed infrastructures and increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. As businesses expand their digital presence, they need adaptable, privacy-preserving solutions to safeguard their assets and ensure seamless operations across ecosystems. But implementing these approaches isn’t without its challenges. Modern IAM offers transformative opportunities through decentralized identity models and blockchain-enabled verifiable credentials. These replace static identifiers with cryptographically signed proofs, allowing organizations to achieve tamper-proof identity verification, transparent lifecycle management and enhanced privacy. These new solutions align with zero trust principles, paving the way for trust-minimized environments that prioritize security and user control. Join Yeghisabet Alaverdyan, Senior Researcher and Associate Professor at IIAP MESCSA RA, to share her insights on how the latest IAM strategies are redefining identity management for the modern age. Takeaways: - Discover why traditional IAM systems are not suited to modern infrastructures. - Learn how decentralized identity models enhance security, privacy and user autonomy. - Understand the role of blockchain in verifiable credentials and tamper-proof identity management. - Explore how emerging IAM protocols align with zero trust principles. Gain actionable insights to future-proof your organization’s identity strategy.
