AI @ cidaas: From vibe coding to agent identity – Rethinking authentication in the age of AI

AI is not only transforming how software is built – it is also changing how systems authenticate, authorize, and trust each other. At cidaas, we are exploring how concepts like Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication reshape identity and access management. AI agents no longer just execute isolated requests; they act autonomously, delegate identities, and interact with multiple systems and even other agents. This raises fundamental questions:

Who is acting the user, the agent, or both?

How do we control delegated access?

And how do systems establish trust in machine-to-machine interactions at scale?

In this keynote, Sadrick Widmann will share how we are building AI-driven capabilities in a SaaS platform, and how this impacts authentication, authorization, and security architecture. The focus is on navigating the balance between innovation and control while redefining identity in an increasingly autonomous, AI-driven world.

365 Days of Change: Why European IAM Matters Now [Intermediate]

Over the past year, Europe has made significant strides toward digital sovereignty, both politically and technologically. This talk examines the key developments in Identity & Access Management (IAM), from regulatory milestones like eIDAS 2 and NIS2 to innovations in privacy-by-design architectures and federated cloud models.

Participants will learn why European IAM solutions are increasingly trustworthy, how organizations can leverage them, and how IAM leaders can turn digital sovereignty into a strategic advantage that balances innovation, compliance, and security.
