Australia’s Security of Critical Infrastructure (SOCI) Act 2018 and ERP Bill 2024 places new obligations on owners and operators of critical infrastructure to manage cyber risks, strengthen resilience, and safeguard national interests. Meeting these requirements demands more than just technology—it requires a strategic approach to identity security.
Join us for this exclusive session where we explore how Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) can help your organisation:
- Achieve and demonstrate compliance with the SOCI 2018 Act and ERP 2024 Bill
- Secure Identities with Phishing Resistant MFA
- Gain visibility and control over privileged and non-privileged access
- Strengthen zero trust strategies across critical systems
- Automate governance to reduce risk and administrative burden
- Enable faster, more secure responses to emerging threats
This is a must-attend event for Critical Infrastructure CISOs, risk leaders, compliance managers, and IT decision-makers looking to align security investments with regulatory requirements while ensuring operational resilience.

Identity at the Center of Critical Infrastructure |
Critical Infrastructure is the frontline of national security, yet it is increasingly in the crosshairs of cybercriminals and nation-state actors. Recent changes to the SOCI Act and ERP 2024 Bill place identity at the center of compliance and resilience. This session explores the rising threat landscape, the regulatory drivers, and why traditional perimeter security is no longer enough. Learn why identity is the new battleground for protecting essential services. |

Navigating IAM Obligations Under SOCI and ERP 2024 |
The latest legislative amendments introduce mandatory cybersecurity, supply chain, and personnel obligations for critical infrastructure operators. But what does this mean in practice? In this session, we break down the identity and access management requirements step by step, providing clarity on how organisations can align with SOCI and ERP 2024. Attendees will gain actionable insights on turning regulatory pressure into a roadmap for better security and stronger governance. |

Beyond Access: The Role of Identity Governance & Administration in Reducing Risk |
For critical infrastructure operators, unmanaged access isn’t just a security risk, it’s a business risk. Excessive user rights, complex workforce lifecycles, and insider threats can disrupt operations, undermine compliance, and erode stakeholder trust. Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) provides a smarter way to manage access. By automating access decisions, streamlining workforce onboarding and offboarding, and embedding oversight into everyday operations, IGA reduces costs while strengthening compliance. More importantly, it shifts identity from a compliance requirement to a strategic capability that protects uptime, reduces risk, and builds resilience across the organisation |
