Session will explore how multiple identity providers erode control, disrupt user experience, increase risks, drive up costs and strain IAM teams

BOULDER, Colo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#CloudIAMStrata Identity, the Identity Orchestration company, today announced it will host a webinar with The Cyber Hut, focusing on the growing challenges organizations face when managing multiple concurrent identity providers (IDPs). The session will explore strategies to simplify authentication and improve security by rationalizing IDPs without changing core app source code or costly rip-and-replace projects.


WHO:

Simon Moffatt, Founder & Analyst, The Cyber Hut

Simon Moffatt has over 22 years of experience in identity and access management. He is an Amazon-published author of the industry’s first book on consumer identity and a contributor to identity standards at NIST and the IETF. As CEO and Research Analyst at The Cyber Hut, he leads an industry analyst and advisory firm focused on emerging IAM technologies. Simon is also the co-host of The Week in Identity podcast and an advisor to C-level executives. He holds CISSP, CCSP, and CEH certifications and is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Information Security.

Aldo Pietropaolo, Field CTO, Strata Identity

Aldo has over 20 years of experience in the identity industry and was the co-founder of Good Dog Labs, where he invented the first microservices-based identity and access management product, Perseus IAM. Good Dog Labs was later acquired by Lighthouse Computer Services. He has held senior management roles in identity solutions engineering and architecture with SGNL, Identropy, PwC, HP, RSA, and Securant. At Strata, Aldo helps customers address and overcome complex multi-cloud and hybrid cloud identity challenges.

WHAT:

The webinar, Too Many IDPs, Not Enough Control: How to Rationalize Identity & Simplify SSO, will examine the impact of identity provider sprawl. Due to mergers and acquisitions (M&As), multi-cloud strategies, or years of layered legacy systems, organizations often find themselves with too many IDPs. This results in inconsistent user experiences, increased security risks, higher costs, and overwhelmed IAM teams. In this session, attendees will learn:

  • The hidden costs of IDP sprawl—including security risks and compliance gaps
  • How IDP rationalization enhances business efficiency, security, and user experience
  • Strategies to centralize identity management for improved compliance and incident response
  • Practical steps to achieving unified SSO without lengthy application rewrites or redundant user licensing

WHEN: March 20, 2025 at 10am PDT / 1pm EDT, for 40 minutes.

WHERE: Online. To register visit: https://events.strata.io/rationalizeidentity-simplifysso?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=businesswire

About Strata Identity

Strata Identity is the leader in Identity Orchestration for multi-cloud and hybrid-cloud. The orchestration recipe-powered platform enables organizations to integrate and control incompatible identity systems with an identity fabric that does not change the user experience or require rewriting apps. Strata also provides identity continuity that prevents application outages by failing over to an alternate on-premises or cloud IDP when the primary IDP goes offline. By decoupling applications from identity, Strata makes it possible to implement modern authentication, like passwordless, and enforce consistent access policies without refactoring apps. The company’s founders created the IDQL (Identity Query Language) standard and Hexa open-source software for multi-cloud policy orchestration and are co-authors of the SAML standard for SSO federation.
