Where Identity & Security Move From Strategy to Execution

Germany provides the ideal backdrop for this forum, building on the momentum of our previous edition in Amsterdam. As Europe’s largest and most regulated economy, it brings together critical sectors from banking and manufacturing to telecom, healthcare, and public infrastructure where security and identity are mission-critical.

With a strong regulatory environment and deep engineering culture, Germany is where Zero Trust is actively being implemented at scale not just discussed.

Embracing an Identity First Approach

As organisations navigate an increasingly complex threat landscape shaped by cloud adoption, AI, machine identities, and evolving regulatory demands, identity has become the foundation of modern security.
An Identity First approach goes beyond traditional perimeter-based thinking. It recognises that every human, machine, and AI identity must be continuously authenticated, authorised, governed, and protected across increasingly distributed environments.
The Identity First Security Summit Europe brings together leaders from banking, enterprise, government, telecom, healthcare, manufacturing, and critical infrastructure to focus on one thing: how organisations are securing Human, Machine & AI Identities in practice.

This is not a theoretical conversation. It is about strategy, architecture, implementation, and the realities of operating in highly regulated and high-risk environments.

If you are shaping cybersecurity, identity, access, or digital trust strategies at scale, this is where those conversations happen.
- Parry
