Managing identities and access across Microsoft Entra ID, Google Cloud, and AWS is a growing challenge for government agencies at all levels. Distributing agencies’ application infrastructure and workloads among different clouds has benefits, such as greater resilience, targeted cost management, and greater flexibility in the future by avoiding lock-in with one provider.

But the benefits carry their own drawbacks, including the need to manage security controls and risk management practices in several different cloud environments while meeting and maintaining regulatory compliance in each, including the adoption of a Zero Trust architecture for all of them.

Learning Objectives:

Review the application of Zero Trust principles in identity governance
Outline ways to manage decentralized identities and prevent credential sprawl
Delineate measures to use automation to streamline governance
Evaluate steps to handle privileged access management across cloud platforms
Identify tools and best practices for cross-cloud identity management while ensuring compliance with federal regulations
