Identity Management

Identity and access management (IAM) is a framework of business processes, policies, and technologies that facilitate the management of digital identities to ensure that users only gain access to data when they have the appropriate credentials.

Description: Consumer identity and access management (CIAM) is a critical component of any modern organisation's digital transformation initiative. If you used the Internet yesterday, you would very likely have interacted with a website that had customer identity and access management at its foundation. Making an online purchase, checking your bank balance, getting a quote for car insurance, logging into a social media site or submitting and paying your income tax return. All of those interactions require high scale, secure identity and access management services. Synopsis: But how are ...

The security perimeter just dissolved. And most organizations don't even know it yet. In early 2026, a security analysis of OpenClaw—the most popular autonomous AI agent framework—scored it 2 out of 100 for security. Ninety-one percent of prompt injection attacks succeeded. The system leaked its core instructions on turn one of testing. Yet over 100,000 developers deployed these agents with shell access, browser control, and API keys to their most sensitive systems. It isn't about chatbots anymore. Autonomous AI agents don't wait for instructions—they pursue goals. They don't operate ...
