This paper presents identity as the connective layer of modern cybersecurity. It highlights the gap between identity governance and security operations and introduces Dynamic Security Orchestration with Shared Signals Framework (SSF) integration.

Identity becomes a real-time enforcement mechanism aligned with Zero Trust, enabling faster threat containment and smarter, risk-aware access decisions.
