The SAP Identity Crisis and What to Do About It
- Wed 29 Jul 2026
- 11:30 am AEST
SAP has retired IdM with no single replacement. Identity is now spread across tools, teams, and trade-offs. Learn how to regain control with a modern, integrated approach.
SAP Identity Management gave SAP teams one place to handle provisioning, lifecycle, and governance. That anchor is gone — and nothing has replaced it like-for-like. Instead, identity is now distributed across SAP Access Control, SAP Cloud Identity Services, Microsoft Entra, and third-party platforms, each covering part of the picture but none covering all of it.
Meanwhile, the challenge is growing. AI agents and non-human identities are expanding the access surface, and SAP's fine-grained, context-driven permissions make governance harder than in most enterprise systems.
In this webinar, we’ll cut through the complexity to show you what a realistic, modern SAP identity architecture looks like — and how to start building it today.
