Identity and Access Management

As enterprises rapidly embrace AI‑driven transformation, identity has become the new control plane for trust. AI agents, autonomous workflows, copilots, and intelligent automation now act on behalf of users, systems, and business processes, creating an explosion of non‑human identities, ephemeral access paths, and machine‑to‑machine interactions. In this AI‑powered enterprise, identity is no longer static or human‑centric; it is dynamic, distributed, and constantly in motion.

This shift fundamentally reshapes the threat landscape. Credentials remain the primary attack vector, but the risk is amplified by AI‑enabled privilege escalation, excessive permissions, and unmanaged machine identities operating at machine speed. Traditional IAM models designed for predictable users and long‑lived access struggle to keep pace with AI‑driven velocity, scale, and autonomy, creating critical blind spots across cloud, DevOps, and hybrid environments.

Infosys Cyber Next represents the evolution of identity security required for this new reality. It moves beyond perimeter‑based and manual controls toward an intelligent, adaptive, and Zero Trust driven identity fabric, one that secures every identity interaction, whether initiated by a human, workload, API, or AI agent.

Infosys helps organizations navigate this transition by architecting identity around AI, automation, and resilience. We enable enterprises to:

• Govern identities at scale across workforce, partners, applications, and non‑human entities, by establishing clear ownership, lifecycle controls, and policy‑driven access.
• Modernize privileged access with zero standing privileges, just‑in‑time elevation, and continuous risk assessment aligned to AI‑driven usage patterns.
• Embed Zero Trust by design ensuring access is dynamically evaluated based on identity, context, behavior, and risk rather than static roles or network location.
• Secure AI and automation safely controlling how AI agents, pipelines, and autonomous systems authenticate, access data, and execute privileged actions.

With a strong focus on scalability, operational efficiency, and business alignment, Infosys integrates identity security seamlessly into cloud platforms, DevOps pipelines, and enterprise ecosystems. This ensures a future‑ready identity foundation that reduces attack surface, simplifies operations, and enables organizations to innovate with AI confidently without compromising security, compliance, or trust.
