In this episode of the Cloud Security Podcast, Ashish sat down with Art Poghosyan, CEO and co-founder of Britive, to explore the changing world of identity and access management (IAM) in the cloud era. With over two decades of experience in the identity space, Art breaks down the challenges of traditional Privileged Access Management (PAM) and how cloud-native environments require a rethinking of security strategies.
From understanding the complexities of cloud infrastructure entitlements to unpacking the differences between on-premise and cloud-based PAM, Art explains why "Identity is the new perimeter" and how modern organizations must adapt. They dive deep into the importance of Just-in-Time (JIT) access, non-human identities, and the critical role identity plays as the first and last line of defense in cloud security.
