What does machine identity management look like from outer space? Almost as amazing as it will look from The Illuminarium in Las Vegas, where your senses will be inspired by wall-to-wall sights and sounds that set the stage for intergalactic machine identity innovation and disruption.
For those unfamiliar with the cosmos references, let me ground this a bit. We're using the vastness and wonder of space as a metaphor for the expansive and evolving landscape of machine identity management. The Illuminarium in Las Vegas serves as our 'space station,' where cutting-edge discussions and innovations in the field will be showcased, akin to discovering new galaxies in the universe. And just as Alpha Centauri is one of the brightest stars in our sky, our summit promises to be a standout event in the industry's calendar. Are you ready?
Seriously, we’ve got a great experience lined up for you with an experiential venue that’s as innovative, vast and futuristic as our vision of where the industry is headed. Which is why I’m super excited to announce updates to our speaker list of technology luminaries.
Explore modern machine identity management, zero trust, AI, cloud native and more.
Join experts, visionaries and top executives live in Las Vegas as we take you on a journey into the future of machine identities. We’ve carefully curated an out-of-this-world agenda that will prepare you to put the proof in futureproof. With the spirit of conquering new frontiers as our navigation, we’ll take you on an exploration the future of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), quantum preparedness, zero touch, cloud native and more.
Now, let’s talk about the exciting lineup of industry explorers and pioneers who will be sharing insights with us at the summit.
The future is yours to win!
First and foremost, I’m excited about what our fearless leader, Jeff Hudson, has to offer. This amazing futurist isn’t just looking at tomorrow, next month or next year. He’s looking bravely into a seismic shift in security—one where the potential of machines is fully manifest, yet machines and humans can coexist safely and harmoniously.
In Jeff’s opening keynote, he’ll share a global vision of holistic machine identity management that empowers your organization to act and run locally, but secure globally. He’ll be joined on the stage by a series of surprise guests who will help him show how we can all work together to expand that vision.
AI and the future of machine identity management
Kevin Bocek, Venafi’s vice president of ecosystem and community is well known in the industry for his stellar insights, as well as his inspiring style of shaping ideas. He’ll share insights into how AI and ML are rapidly changing the way we do business and protect our organizations. He’ll outline what you need to know about emerging threatscapes in the age of AI and why machine identity management is the prime protection to help you counter these new attack vectors.
To further elucidate that topic, Kevin will be joined on stage by Jamie Holcombe, CIO of the US Patent and Trademark Office for a fireside chat. You’ll hear his CIO perspectives on the future of security and AI. Plus, he’ll tackle hard-hitting questions, such as Will we adopt it as a predictive security tool? What are the necessary guardrails? And where do we start right now to protect against future AI attacks? Can’t wait to see what Jamie has to say about these exciting topics.
CISO panels: Game changers for Infosec and post quantum computing
Hear from industry-leading CISOs Jane Domboski (CISO, OneMain Financial), Marene Allison (Former CISO, Johnson & Johnson, Greg Crabb (Former CISO USPS), and others about the sweeping impacts of AI, quantum computing and cloud native architectures. They'll speak candidly about how you can prepare to protect your business from whatever the future may bring. As the attack surface continues to evolve, it’s challenging InfoSec adapt immediately and globally—especially now that there is an element of fiscal accountability for breaches (SolarWinds). Join these enlightened CISOs to learn why you need to think beyond technology and focus on critical risk. In addition, the panel on post quantum computing will dig deep into post quantum preparedness—not to be missed!

Engaging the open source community and deep diving into machine identity
One of the highlights of our summit will be a dedicated space for the vibrant cert-manager open source community. Open source has always been about collaboration and breaking boundaries, and cert-manager stands as a testament to that ethos. It's not just a tool; it's a movement that continues to shape the future of machine identity management. This gathering will offer a unique chance for product experts and solution architects to dive deep into the technicalities, discuss potential enhancements and brainstorm new integrations. For those of you who enjoy the more tactile aspects of ideation, we'll have whiteboards aplenty—inviting attendees to visually map out concepts, discuss challenges and nerd out about the intricate details of machine identity management. It's an invaluable opportunity for hands-on professionals to not just learn but to actively contribute to the evolving narrative of this crucial field.
