Cybercriminals do not break in. They log in. And in most organizations, poor identity hygiene makes that disturbingly easy. Orphaned accounts, excessive permissions, uncertified access, and unmanaged credentials are the open doors that attackers walk through every day.
In support of Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2026 and its theme of making life difficult for cybercriminals, Omada and IDSA hosted a practical session on identity hygiene: what it is, why it matters, and what good looks like in practice.
Whether you are building your identity security program or looking to strengthen what you already have, this session will give you practical guidance you can act on immediately.
You will learn:
- Why identity hygiene is one of the most effective and underinvested areas of enterprise security
- The most common identity hygiene failures and how attackers exploit them
- How to identify and remediate access sprawl, orphaned accounts, and standing privileges
