Explore how digital trust is built at a scale from securing machine identities to navigating the disruptive forces shaping IAM in 2026 and beyond.
The Gartner Identity & Access Management Summit brings together IAM leaders, architects, and cybersecurity professionals from every industry to tackle today’s most critical identity challenges.
This year’s theme, Identity at the Core, focuses on how organizations can strengthen resilience through secure, scalable IAM strategies in a rapidly changing global environment.
Machine identities, from certificates and keys to the cryptographic assets underpinning digital trust, are at the center of four disruptive forces. Expanding compliance mandates, such as NIS2 and Executive Order 14028, are increasing scrutiny of cryptography and key management. AI agents are multiplying non-human identities, which already outnumber human ones by as much as 40:1. TLS certificate lifespans are collapsing from one year to just 47 days, amplifying operational risk for organizations still relying on manual processes. And quantum computing is rapidly advancing, with NIST’s post-quantum standards now finalized and adoption underway.
In this session, learn strategies to quantify risk, automate at scale, and safeguard digital trust in 2026 and beyond.
Session details: December 9, 1:10 PM, Theater 1
Join us on December 9th after Gartner IAM for an evening of networking and a touch of Texas tradition.
Kick back at Hotel Vin in Grapevine for an exclusive, invitation-only experience with your peers in the security and identity community. Enjoy a curated bourbon tasting, get fitted for and create your own custom cowboy hat, brand a pair of boots, and connect beyond the conference floor to talk shop and toast the season.
Don’t worry about transportation, you can hitch a ride from us! We’ll provide luxury cars to and from the Gaylord Texan.
Space is limited, and tickets are non-transferable. We look forward to saying howdy in Grapevine!
Join Keyfactor at Gartner IAM to explore the trends driving the next era of identity: expanding compliance, AI identity growth, 47-day TLS cycles, and quantum disruption. See how we help organizations stay secure, automated, and future-ready, and don’t miss your chance to win an Apple Watch!
