Identity has become one of the most powerful levers for reducing human risk, yet it’s also one of the most overlooked. In this session, Ashley Atiles and Alfonso Mancuso explore how identity and human behavior intersect—where privilege creep, MFA fatigue, and provisioning errors create real-world vulnerabilities. They show how organizations can move from identity visibility to mitigation, correlating IAM data with behavior patterns to prioritize the risks that matter most.
