Enterprise identity and access management isn't a product you buy — it's a program you build. The Identity Blueprint covers the full spectrum: seven-phase IAM frameworks, zero trust architecture, JIT access, FIDO2 passkeys, identity governance, and the operational models that hold up at enterprise scale. Built for practitioners who are past the basics. Hosted by Ernie and Josée.

  1. Why Identity Governance Must Lead Technology

    Why Identity Governance Must Lead Technology

    Season 1, Episode 4: You automated your practices. You accelerated your procedures. Yet you're still failing your audits. Your platform isn't fixing your identity problem — it's accelerating it. And right now, you're operating blindly when you should be seeing everything. In this episode, Ernie and Josée break down Phase 3 of the IAM engagement blueprint: the policy and governance framework. Drawing from the Identity Management Institute, Microsoft Entra, SailPoint, Ping Identity, Okta, and CISA — this is the episode that establishes why governance isn't a phase you revisit after deployment. It's the conductor. Everything else is the orchestra. If you're a CISO, a VP, or an architect responsible for an identity program and the technology is already live — this episode is not optional.

  2. Identity Strategy and Target State Design

    Identity Strategy and Target State Design

    Season 1, Episode 3:  Identity isn't a technology problem. It's a strategy problem. And until your executive team agrees on where you're going, every platform you buy and every policy you write is just expensive guesswork. In this episode, Ernie and Josée map out Phase 2 of the IAM engagement blueprint: Identity Strategy and Target State Design. From building an executive vision that gets the CFO to write the check, to designing a target state capability map that governs employees, contractors, and autonomous AI agents — this is the episode that turns discovery into direction. You'll leave knowing how to design a zero-trust architecture that actually gets funded, and why skipping the decision gate guarantees failure regardless of the technology you choose. If you're an architect ready to stop fighting fires and start building something that lasts — this is your blueprint. Connect with Ernie Prescott on LinkedIn at linkedin.com/in/ernieprescott

    Executing a Ruthless Identity Security Autopsy

    Season 1, Episode 2: You can spend millions securing the front door. Vault-grade authentication. Biometric access controls. Armed monitoring around the clock. And an attacker will walk right past all of it — through the forgotten maintenance tunnel you didn't know existed. In this episode, Ernie and Josée execute Phase 1 of the IAM engagement blueprint: the identity security autopsy. A keystroke-level discovery process that surfaces every ghost account, shadow identity, and orphaned credential hiding in your environment before you build a single thing on top of them.

  4. The Seven Phase Identity Security Blueprint

    The Seven Phase Identity Security Blueprint

    Season 1, Episode 1: One forgotten password. One orphaned VPN account with no MFA. That's all it took to shut down half the fuel supply of the United States East Coast. In this episode, Ernie and Josée unpack the seven-phase IAM Program Engagement Blueprint — the complete, sequenced framework for taking an enterprise from identity chaos to a governed, mathematically verifiable security program. From executive scoping to continuous operations, this is the architecture that separates organizations that get identity right from those that make headlines.
