🔍 The Rise of the IVIP – Game Changer or Hype?
Cloud, SaaS sprawl, non-human identities, and AI-driven access are pushing traditional IAM and IGA to their limits. One challenge stands out across all environments: visibility.
In this webinar, Dr. Heiko Klarl (CEO, Nexis), Dr. Maarten Decat (CEO & Co-Founder, Elimity) and Timo Copp (Managing Director, SonicBee) discuss Gartner’s new category Identity Visibility and Intelligence Platforms (IVIP).

🤖 AI You Can Trust – Transparent Identity Governance with NEXIS
AI is becoming a core capability of modern Identity Governance, but it only creates value when decisions remain transparent, explainable, and under human control.
In this interactive webinar Dr. Heiko Klarl (CEO, Nexis) and Viktoria Müller (IAM Consultant, Nexis) show how AI and machine learning are applied across the NEXIS Platform to improve recertifications, access decisions, role mining, application onboarding, and IAM Governance Documentation.

🧩 ICT Risk Management in Practice – Data Collection, Methods and Live Showcase
Effective ICT risk management requires more than frameworks and policies. It needs structured data, clear methods, and seamless integration into existing system landscapes.
In this webinar Jonas Link (Product Manager QSEC, Nexis) and Nabil Arzouni (Information Security Officer, IKB) demonstrate how ICT risk management can be implemented in a practical and controllable way, from structured data collection to hands-on execution directly in the tool.

🧠 New Blog Article: OWASP Top 10 2025 and the Identity Reality Gap – Why Application Security Alone No Longer Closes Enterprise Risk
In his latest blog post, Dr. Heiko Klarl takes a critical look at the OWASP Top 10 2025 and explains why many of today’s most critical risks persist even when application security controls are in place.
The article shows how broken access control, misconfiguration, supply chain risk, and insecure design increasingly originate from insufficient identity, access, and third-party governance rather than vulnerable code alone. Using concrete OWASP categories, it outlines how continuous access governance, Identity Visibility and Intelligence, and structured IAM Governance Documentation help close this enterprise reality gap.

🎙️ Podcast Feature – IAM Success Starts with Honesty
Dr. Heiko Klarl was a guest on The Cyber Security Matters podcast by neuco. The conversation moves beyond tools and frameworks and focuses on a core reason why IAM initiatives stall: a lack of honest visibility into the current state of identity and access management.
Heiko shares why realistic assessments, trusted data, and clear ownership are essential for sustainable identity governance.
A thoughtful episode for security and IAM leaders who want to understand why identity security is as much about people and processes as it is about technology.
⚡ IAM Application Onboarding – Be Fast and Save Money
IAM Application onboarding is one of the biggest bottlenecks in IGA. Manual data collection, fragmented documentation, and late involvement of application owners slow projects down and increase risk.
NEXIS IAM Application Onboarding brings structure and automation to this process:
- AI-supported information gathering from existing documents
- Built-in authorization concepts for regulated environments
- Direct involvement of application owners with clear ownership
- Automated SoD and risk checks
- Onboarding in hours instead of days
