Why Identity Security Assessments Matter in the Age of AI

SC Media, Monday, November 2nd, 2026

Sponsored SC Media content from iC Consult explains what an identity security assessment covers and why AI agents make one urgent.

This sponsored (native) article from IAM consultancy iC Consult describes an identity security assessment as a review of an organization's identity technologies, processes and governance to find risks, compliance gaps and improvements.

It says AI agents and automated workflows add non-human identities that often sit outside conventional IAM inventories.

Assessments can cover lifecycle management, access management, governance, privileged access, monitoring and AI security, scored on a five-level maturity model.

iC Consult outlines its four phases of preparation, interviews, analysis and a prioritized roadmap, and lists triggers such as Zero Trust adoption, tool consolidation, audit findings and incidents.
