Just like the eerie urban legend where the call comes from inside the house, in cybersecurity, the greatest threat might already be within your network. That unsettling notion isn’t fiction — it’s a daily reality. In today’s digital offices, knowing who has access is as crucial as locking the doors at night. Episode #7 of the Cyber Insurance News and Information Podcast delves into this concept through the lens of Identity Governance. It’s not just for tech giants. It’s for every organization that wants to stay one step ahead of cybercrime.
Why Identity Governance Is Your Digital Security System
Host Martin Hinton sits down with Craig Ramsay from Omada, a leader in identity governance administration (IGA), to break down Omada’s latest report and the harsh reality: 40% of companies haven’t modernized their IGA frameworks.

The episode is packed with actionable insights: how automation is changing IGA, why AI can be a decision-making ally (not a threat), and what “identity is the new perimeter” really means. You’ll also learn why legacy systems are ticking time bombs of technical debt and why IGA isn’t a barrier — it’s a business enabler.
