These customers from some of the world’s largest and most well-known organizations are sharing their insights on identity’s role in their security strategies moving forward, as well as practical advice for customers adopting identity governance.

“With SailPoint, we’ve accomplished what we thought was an impossible task – centralizing our complex, disparate identity governance programs and teams into one scalable, user-friendly solution, IdentityIQ. This transition has allowed us to secure more than 1.8 million digital workers and 1,800 applications, streamlining our work and improving our overall security posture,” said Eric Schwab, Principle Technologist, GE. “We’re excited to be at Navigate ’18 to share our identity best practices and successes with other professionals, helping them learn from our large-scale identity governance deployment.”

Every year at Navigate, SailPoint honors the customers who represent the company’s core values of innovation, integrity, impact and individuals, which are the cornerstones of SailPoint’s corporate culture and integral to its success. The Navigate ’18 award winners are:

• FTD Inc. for the Innovation Award: FTD Inc. has taken an innovative, cloud-first approach to identity governance by implementing access certifications and provisioning to stay ahead of the transforming IT landscape.
• Raymond James for the Innovation Award: Raymond James receives the innovation award for extending an already successful identity governance program to govern access to data stored in files, the next frontier in identity governance.
• Humana for the Impact Award: Humana has made a strong impact with their identity governance program by achieving 100% role-based access profiles for their entire workforce and is now extending the depth of those roles to encompass access to data stored in files using SecurityIQ.
• James Kastle, Vice President, Information Technology & Chief Information Security Officer of Conagra Brands for the Individual Award: James Kastle of Conagra Brands receives the individual award for his dedication to identity governance. At his last four roles, he has elevated the importance of identity all the way to the board level.

“Our customers play a huge role in SailPoint’s success, and one of the highlights of Navigate is being able to recognize the incredible work some of our customers are doing,” said Meredith Blanchar, Vice President of Customer Success for SailPoint. “FTD Inc., Raymond James and Humana have put identity the center of their security and IT operations and provide great examples for other companies to emulate as they think about their own identity strategies. We’re also happy to honor James Kastle of Conagra Brands for taking on the role of identity evangelist by helping companies who are new to identity learn how to implement a cloud-based approach.”

Navigate ’18 will continue its global reach with Navigate Australia in Sydney on August 22 and Navigate Europe in Barcelona on October 17-19. More information on both conferences can be found at https://navigate.sailpoint.com/.
