Overview

Identity is no longer a layer in your security stack it is the control plane. Cloud, SaaS, AI agents, remote work, and automation have erased the perimeter. The only thing standing between a normal business day and a catastrophic breach is how well you control who and what can access your systems and under which conditions. IAM in the Zero-Trust Era shows you how to architect identity-first security using modern Zero-Trust principles, phishing-resistant authentication, cloud IAM governance, and adaptive risk controls that operate in real time. This is the blueprint for securing humans, workloads, bots, APIs, and AI agents in distributed, multi-cloud environments. Built on NIST 800-207 Zero-Trust architecture, FIDO2/WebAuthn authentication, modern PAM, CIEM, ITDR, and real-world enterprise design patterns, this book aligns directly with the frameworks, standards, and security models now demanded by regulators, auditors, and modern security teams. It reflects the architecture used by cloud-first enterprises, government security models, and Zero-Trust maturity frameworks translated into clear, implementable strategy rather than vendor-locked theory. This is not a conceptual overview. It is a field guide for building resilient, self-healing identity security systems. You will learn how to replace perimeter-based security with Zero-Trust IAM, deploy phishing-resistant passkeys, govern cloud entitlements, lock down privileged access, secure machine and AI identities, automate access lifecycles, and detect identity-based threats before they become breaches. By the end, you will have a practical, phased roadmap to build identity architectures that limit blast radius, enforce least privilege, and continuously verify every request across users, workloads, and automation. What's Inside- Identity as the control plane for Zero-Trust security - NIST 800-207 applied to real enterprise architectures - Passkeys, FIDO2 & phishing-resistant MFA deployment - PAM with just-in-time and just-enough administration - Cloud IAM & CIEM for AWS, Azure, and GCP - Securing service accounts, bots, APIs, and AI agents - ITDR, behavioral analytics & automated response playbooks - Continuous compliance, governance, and audit readiness - A 36-month Zero-Trust IAM implementation roadmap This book is written for: Security engineers, IAM architects, cloud engineers, DevSecOps teams, CISOs, IT leaders, and professionals preparing for Zero-Trust, cloud security, and IAM certifications anyone responsible for protecting modern distributed environments where credentials, automation, and AI now define risk. If you manage access, design security architectures, or own cloud infrastructure this book speaks your language. Designed for step-by-step execution, not theory. You can begin applying these architectures in weeks, not months from deploying passkeys and conditional access to locking down privileged identities and machine accounts immediately. The Zero-Trust era has already begun. Attackers have adapted and legacy security models are failing. This book gives you the blueprint to build identity-first, self-healing, breach-resilient security architectures that scale across cloud, AI, and automation. Secure your identities. Control your blast radius. Future-proof your security strategy. Get your copy of IAM in the Zero-Trust Era today and start building the next generation of digital defense.
