Europe is waking up to the fact that relying on external platforms means risking control over its own infrastructure and opensource is at the heart of this shift. OSS allows for transparency, customization, and resilience in a way proprietary stacks simply can't match.

Great article from @forbes.com on how many systems can become an easy target for hackers. Attackers are increasingly bypassing perimeter defenses, targeting identity layers and under protected systems across both human and machine accounts. www.forbes.com/councils/for...

I skimmed through the Verizon 2025 Data Breach Investigations Report, and here are some takeaways that stood out to me:

🔑 Credential abuse is still a top threat
🔒 MFA is not optional
🌐 Third-party and supply chain risk doubled
👤 Identity governance is essential

A great infographic by The Linux Foundation shows how #opensource is becoming critical for European industries and governments. Yet, even though much of Europe’s critical infrastructure already runs on open source, the field remains heavily underfunded.

Glad to see Gartner call out ease of deployment as essential for #IGA. What’s the point of great features if you can’t deploy them?

This is where #midPoint shines:
🚀 fast rollout thanks to an iterative approach
🔄 safe simulations
🤖 MidPilot, an AI-powered application onboarding assistant

#Zerotrust isn’t new, it’s rooted in strong #IGA.

☑️ Continuous verification: IGA is the source of truth for who is accessing what.
🔒Least → Zero standing privilege: Automated provisioning & reviews ensure just-right access.
🔄 Dynamic policies: Context-aware access needs deep identity insights.

If we want #IGA to be seen as a strategic enabler, we need to change how we talk about it - sgnl.ai/2025/06/alig...

Most execs only care about business continuity and revenue protection.

So if your #identity roadmap doesn't speak in those terms, it's not going to land.

ISO 27001, GDPR, DORA, HIPAA... the list keeps growing. And with every new regulation, the pressure on IT and security teams rises.

Without IGA, this tasks becomes incredibly hard and risky. Check out this webinar to learn more about regulatory compliance in IGA - www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrJx...

Example of how one misconfigured script can expose entire directories. That’s why identity governance is so important.

Don't ignore #NHIs. These silent agents can gain massive access without oversight. Security must cover every identity, whether human or not.
