In 2027, identity isn’t just part of your security strategy, it is your security strategy.

As identity sprawl, AI adoption, and sophisticated attacks accelerate, IAM leaders are being asked to do more than defend, they must enable the business securely.

At Gartner Identity & Access Management Summit 2027, you’ll gain the insights and practical guidance you need to tackle the four defining priorities shaping IAM today and beyond:

Identity has become the #1 attack surface. Yet most organizations still lack a unified view across human and machine identities.

Learn how to deploy AI-powered identity visibility and intelligence platforms (IVIP) to:

  • Detect hidden risks and misconfigurations

  • Gain control across hybrid and multicloud environments

  • Automate remediation before attackers exploit gaps

Passwords and legacy MFA are no longer enough.

Discover how leading organizations are rapidly adopting phishing-resistant, passwordless authentication (like passkeys)—and why this shift can dramatically reduce breach risk.

 

More tools don’t equal better security. Fragmented IAM environments are holding organizations back.

At the Summit, you’ll learn how to:

  • Integrate IGA, PAM, and authentication into a cohesive strategy

  • Reduce complexity while strengthening your security baseline

  • Maximize value from your existing IAM investments

AI is transforming the enterprise — and exploding machine identities.

Understand why API access control is now mission-critical to:

  • Safely enable enterprise AI initiatives

  • Protect machine-to-machine interactions

  • Align IAM with business innovation
