The New Rules of Governance: Achieving Continuous Compliance with Adaptive Identity

10 September 2026

As AI shifts from a theoretical advantage to an operational reality, the race is on to define the rules of engagement. Yet, for enterprise leaders, the real dilemma isn’t just waiting for regulations to land—it’s realizing that static, point-in-time compliance is officially dead. To secure and govern a dynamic, AI-driven ecosystem, organizations must evolve from rigid access controls to a model of adaptive identity.

In this episode, ISACA’s Safia Kazi, Principal Research Analyst, Privacy, Research Development, speaks with Jeff Purrington, Identity Strategist at SailPoint, to cut through the compliance noise and explore how adaptive identity can act as a real-time control plane—allowing organizations to continuously assess risk, automate governance, and secure both human and non-human identities.

Tune in to discover:
