identity governance

About this tag
Identity governance on WindowsForum.com covers the policies, tools, and practices for managing digital identities, access rights, and compliance across enterprise environments. Discussions focus on controlling user and machine identities in Microsoft 365, Azure, and Edge, especially as AI agents and agentic automation introduce new governance challenges. Topics include real-time access controls for Copilot Studio agents, identity boundaries for Google sign-in in Edge, and platform-level governance for AI agents across Microsoft's stack. Real-world deployments, such as CoreView for a humanitarian organization, illustrate identity governance at scale. The tag also appears in the context of cybersecurity leadership in accounting firms and AI infrastructure security, emphasizing that identity is becoming the control plane for autonomous systems.
