In this episode, Steve Durbin speaks with Alex Bovee, CEO and Co-Founder of C1, about why identity security has become one of the most critical and under-addressed risks in modern enterprises.
They explore how cloud and SaaS adoption moved identity outside the traditional firewall, and why the sprawl is only growing. The conversation covers deepfake risks, generational workforce expectations, board-level communication, and what the next five years could look like for organisations navigating a world of human and machine identities.
If you see identity as an afterthought, it’s probably just a matter of time before you have a major security incident.
Key Takeaways:
- Cloud, SaaS and AI agents have pushed identity sprawl into the open, making it a strategic risk that can no longer be treated as an IT afterthought.
- The most effective security programmes build guardrails that make the secure path the easy path, reducing shadow adoption and insider risk.
- As agentic workflows accelerate, real-time intent-based access control will replace traditional ticketing, with humans overseeing rather than manually approving.
