In this fireside chat, hear how SOK, one of the largest retailers in Finland, is moving from a legacy, script-based IAM environment to a modern, cloud-first Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) model. Already leveraging modern IGA and external identity solutions, SOK is exploring future options. This session will share insights into how they’re securing access for over 50,000 users across retail, banking, and hospitality operations—while aligning IAM with Zero Trust principles, automation goals, and compliance needs.

In this session you will learn:

• How SOK is approaching the transition away from SAP IDM in a complex enterprise landscape.
• Strategic insights into evaluating next-generation solutions.
• Practical lessons from building a scalable, cloud-aligned IAM foundation that supports SAP and hybrid environments.
