Most organizations have modernized authentication with SSO, MFA, and conditional access. But once a user is through the front door, authorization remains fragmented, static, and dangerously outdated.In this report, Opal Security’s Chief Security & Trust Officer Jesse Scott examines the growing risk of identity drift—where access privileges accumulate unchecked, especially among non-human identities. The result: hidden blast radius, escalating breach potential, and increasing operational overhead.
In this session, we’ll cover:
Why authorization is the true weak point for todays breaches
How legacy access models create systemic risk
What forward-thinking teams are doing to implement real-time enforcement
How to shift from access governance to a modern access control plane
