Modern enterprises are moving toward an Identity Fabric to unify siloed environments into a single, cohesive control plane. By connecting disparate access management, AI agent identity, and security token services into a consistent policy engine, identity has evolved into the primary security perimeter for the digital business.

However, the transition from legacy silos to a unified fabric involves navigating complex technical hurdles, cultural shifts, and the rapid rise of non-human identities.

In today’s digital-first sports and entertainment landscape, seamless and secure customer authentication is critical to delivering frictionless fan experiences. This session explores how Everi leverages WSO2 Identity Server to power authentication across a diverse ecosystem of mobile and web applications spanning professional sports, wagering, and casino platforms.

In an era of rapid geopolitical change, it is increasingly critical to maintain data residency and data sovereignty for customer data. It is also increasingly difficult to deploy a complete identity, API, or AI stack in numerous countries. Learn how to use WSO2 partner's InCountry data residency technology to deploy a single global WSO2 Identity, WSO2 AI Gateway, or WSO2 API gateway instance and fully isolate customer sensitive data in each country of origin.

ThunderID is WSO2's next-generation identity core, built from the ground up in Go to address the evolving demands of modern access management. This session introduces the project, exploring its architecture and the technical decisions that shaped it. We'll discuss why we chose Go and how ThunderID leverages fast startup times and a minimal memory footprint to deliver low-latency authentication at scale in cloud-native environments. ThunderID looks ahead, with its design shaped by emerging demands like AI agent identities and post-quantum cryptography.

As autonomous AI agents quickly transition into active workforce members, digital assistants, and dynamic application endpoints, they bring about significant security challenges. Existing deployments often suffer from unmanaged credentials and fragmented tool management, treating these intelligent agents as mere service accounts or application clients, or worse, allowing them to operate using borrowed credentials. WSO2 Agent ID introduces a transformative framework designed to establish AI agents as first-class, identity-backed Directory Entities.

IAM is no exception to other technological domains that are going through a transformation due to the impact of AI. This session explores the duality of AI in the identity landscape: its power as a transformative ally and its role as a sophisticated threat. AI is becoming a force multiplier for technical teams by assisting developers in crafting frictionless user journeys and enabling target system integrations and admins to automate the monotonous tasks of authoring access control policies, approvals and report generations.
