Presentation Title:  “The Evolving State of Identity and Access at Eaton”

Topic Abstract:

The intent of this presentation is to describe the physical and logical systems landscape at Eaton, a large, global, premier diversified industrial manufacturer, and the series of challenges faced in managing information about the identity of internal and external users, as well as securing their access to various resources. The state of identity and access needs at Eaton continues to progress, in part due to changes in business strategy, including Eaton’s interest in taking advantage of the opportunities created by the Internet of Things (IoT). Eaton’s broader foray into Cloud initiatives to gain operational efficiencies or deliver new service capabilities is presenting new challenges to the Enterprise Identity and Access team, as is our Information Security strategy to move towards more of a zero-trust model. This presentation will look back at some historical goals for IAM at Eaton and what we’ve learned, as well as what we’re currently contemplating to navigate the muddy waters ahead.
