Record-Breaking Attendance Reflects a Growing Identity Ecosystem

This year’s Identiverse marked a milestone with unprecedented turnout—a testament to the expanding urgency around identity-centric security. From zero trust to AI-driven governance, attendees immersed themselves in the tools, strategies, and innovations shaping the future of identity.

“The success of this year’s Identiverse is a true reflection of the dedication and collaboration across the entire IAM community,” said John DelMauro, EVP of CRA Events at CyberRisk Alliance.

Eight core themes guided the 2025 programming, offering something for every identity practitioner:

·       Standards Development
