The fragmentation of enterprise identity systems is creating real security risks but IPSIE is here to simplify and standardize.
In this episode, Matthias Reinwarth and Warwick Ashford explore IPSIE (Interoperability Profiling for Secure Identity in the Enterprise), how it improves interoperability, enforces secure defaults, and provides measurable maturity levels for enterprise identity management.
🔹 Key Topics Covered:
✅ What IPSIE is and why it matters for enterprise identity 🧠
✅ How fragmentation of SaaS and cloud identity systems increases risk
✅ Opinionated profiles and secure, consistent standard implementation
✅ Maturity levels for session lifecycle, account lifecycle, and entitlements
✅ How IPSIE fits into the broader Identity Fabric strategy
✅ Current limitations: focus on human identities and next steps for non-human accounts
💡 IPSIE doesn’t reinvent identity standards, it helps organizations implement what they already have consistently and securely, creating a foundation for stronger enterprise security.
