Join industry leaders to explore how modern identity solutions can transform aviation security and operations.

Identity is the new security perimeter in aviation. From passenger verification to vendor access and ground staff authentication, the challenges are complex – but solvable. This roundtable will provide actionable insights on how Microsoft Entra can help aviation organisations secure identities, streamline operations, and meet compliance requirements.

This interactive session will explore six critical identity challenges facing the industry today and demonstrate how Microsoft Entra delivers practical, scalable solutions:

  • Passenger identity and fraud
    Verified ID and MFA to secure bookings and loyalty programmes.

  • Non-human identities
    Lifecycle management and PIM for APIs, bots, and IoT devices.

  • Vendor and supply chain access
    Zero Trust connectivity and secure external collaboration.

  • Legacy system compliance
    Federation, automated audits, and hybrid Zero Trust policies.

  • Cybersecurity threats
    ID Protection, AI-driven optimisation, and threat detection.
