Leveraging Identity and Access Management Technologies to Prevent Insider Threats

Hoboken, NJ, June 05, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Insider threats are not only a threat to the government, but also pose a risk to national security. Insider threats can be monitored and avoided with identity, credential and access management (ICAM) technologies. The goal of these technologies is knowing who is on the network and monitoring what they are accessing. Topics at the symposium will revolve around ways to leverage biometric identification to identity insider threats before they occur. Government agencies will come together to discuss the current and future challenges in identity intelligence and ways to overcome them.

Discussions at DSI’s 2019 Identity Management Symposium will revolve around the use of identity intelligence, informed by forensic and biometric data collection and analysis to help protect against outside hackers and insider threats throughout the military and Federal Government. Senior level speakers will convene in Alexandria, VA for this two-day symposium emphasizing the critical need for the rapid acquisition and development of intelligence IT capabilities across all services in order to better share and secure sensitive information.

To this end, the symposium will feature senior level-speakers and sessions including:

- “Leveraging Biometrics for Threat Detection and Defense”
Glen D. Krizay, Director, Defense Forensics and Biometrics Agency

- “Leveraging Biometric Identification for National Security”
Shonnie Lyon, Director, OBIM
