RANT Roundtable in partnership with Orchid Security

The identity security space has been fundamentally broken for years. Organisations often believe they have a clear view of their application landscape. The reality tells a different story, and the gap between perception and truth becomes a breeding ground for identity dark matter: unknown apps, orphaned accounts, and unmanaged behaviours hidden in the shadows.

At the current pace of discovery and onboarding, it can take years just to bring these applications into existing identity tools. Meanwhile, risks compound. The friction between what teams think exists in their environment and what is actually happening at the application layer is where vulnerabilities thrive, especially when logs are incomplete or when unknown apps connect to identity providers and quietly scrape data.

Agentic AI adds a new pressure point. These systems depend on identity context to act on behalf of users and services. When that context is incomplete, inaccurate, or drifting, Agentic behaviour amplifies the risk. What was once seen purely as an access issue is now tied to productivity, resilience, and business continuity. Major incidents from 2025 made that clear: without rethinking identity, organisations won’t be able to safely build or ship products.

Join us for this discussion on repairing the broken identity space, and how to bring a clearer, more grounded view of identity to the table that challenges existing patterns and supports security leaders.
