Identity Security for Public Sector

This lab offers a comprehensive deep dive into the modern identity security stack, demonstrating how to achieve a seamless balance between robust protection and user productivity. You will begin by utilizing Duo Directory to establish a clean, automated foundation for user lifecycle management. From there, you will configure passwordless workflows that leverage risk-based insights, ensuring that users enjoy a frictionless login process while the organization maintains a hardened security posture. By the end of this session, you will have a holistic understanding of how to orchestrate these powerful tools to create a seamless security workflow that proactively defends against evolving identity threats without disrupting the end-user experience.

Building upon this, you will explore Cisco Identity Intelligence to gain deep visibility into identity-based risks. By analyzing patterns and detecting potential threats across the environment, you will understand how to transform raw identity data into actionable insights that inform security policy decisions.

Recommended for identity and/or security practitioners, but all are welcome. Lunch will be provided.

[ZTA] Documentation Test

Template Description:

This example event shows what a complete workshop event page can look like when key fields are fully populated, including speaker details, sponsor logos, and gallery images. Use this page as a reference for structure, presentation, and content quality.

Speaker images

Speaker images are most effectively presented when they are square, centrally aligned, and of high resolution. A square headshot produces the most refined presentation within the speaker section. Please ensure that a description is included. Keep the face centered. Avoid landscape banners or portrait crops with the subject near the edge. Non-square images are accepted, but they produce an inconsistent result.

Recommended: 800 × 800 px or larger

Sponsor logos

Sponsor logos should be displayed in a manner that is clean, centered, and cropped with minimal unnecessary whitespace. Horizontal logos typically produce the most consistent appearance. It is advisable to prefer horizontal or well-balanced square logos. Very tall logos should be avoided to ensure uniform presentation. Excess whitespace should be removed. Padding and proportions across different sponsors should be standardized to maintain consistency within the row. When available, transparent PNG files are preferred.

Recommended: 800 to 1400 px wide
Best practice: use transparent PNG files when possible

Gallery images

Gallery images are displayed as square thumbnails and must remain understandable when viewed at a smaller scale. Choose images with clear focal points and, where possible, reduce the use of visuals with extensive text. Ensure images are composed to crop neatly into a square format, with the primary subject positioned centrally. Refrain from dense screenshots, small text, or layouts placing information at the edges, as these are not easily legible at thumbnail size.

Recommended: 1000 × 1000 px or larger
Minimum: 600 × 600 px
