Across Europe, two major regulatory deadlines are arriving that will reshape the mechanics of identity verification for EU-regulated businesses. By the end of 2026, eIDAS 2.0 will require organizations to accept EUDI Wallets for online services where electronic identification or authentication is necessary. That obligation covers state, regional, and local authorities; bodies governed by public law; and certain private entities that are required to provide public services.

As organizations expand across cloud platforms, SaaS applications, remote teams, and AI-driven systems, managing access becomes more challenging. Security teams must ensure users, applications, and automated workflows can access the resources they need without exposing sensitive data or critical systems. This is where the RBAC vs ABAC discussion becomes important.

As a fintech organization, you depend on multiple systems like AWS, Databricks, Snowflake, Power BI, Stripe Treasury, Identity Providers (IdP), developer tools, internal operational platforms, and many more. Managing access and access level across platforms is often disconnected and spread across emails, Slack approvals, tickets, and sometimes spreadsheets. Obviously, this is inefficient. There'll be delays in onboarding. But that's the least of your worries.

On May 22, Brazil’s National Data Protection Agency (ANPD or Agência Nacional de Proteção de Dados) published new draft guidance on age assurance (aferição de idade) mechanisms. The guidance provides companies with their clearest picture yet of how to comply under the Digital ECA. Part of a broader rollout of Brazil’s Digital ECA framework, the guide emphasizes risk-based proportionality and privacy by design (privacidade desde a concepção).

If you’ve deployed your first AI agent, then you must have given it access to your CRMs, ticketing systems, and your cloud storage. This AI agent is programmed to run 24/7, make decisions, call external APIs, and trigger actions (without a human in the loop). Now, answer these questions: If you cannot answer these questions, then you have an agentic AI identity issue. Traditional Identity and Access Management (IAM) was built for service accounts with static API keys and users with usernames.

Since the announcement of the Atlassian Data Center end-of-life, organizations have started planning their migration to the cloud. However, it’s not a simple copy-and-paste job. Over time, your Jira and Confluence instances accumulate years of attachments. These might include screenshots, log files, ZIP files, duplicate uploads, and other items nobody remembers uploading. You might not even realize these files exist until migration begins and the bloat starts causing delays.

AI agents today are becoming a part and parcel of everyday enterprise operations. They can access databases, trigger workflows, send emails, approve requests, and interact with business systems with very little human involvement. What started as AI assistants is now evolving into autonomous operators capable of making decisions and executing actions at machine speed.
