Jesse Minor is a Principal Security Architect focused on Identity Security at Humana, with more than 15 years of experience in identity and cybersecurity and over a decade leading enterprise identity programs. His work spans IAM, IGA, PAM, identity threat detection and response (ITDR), authentication, authorization, non-human identity, and Zero Trust.
Throughout his career, Jesse has led identity modernization and security initiatives across healthcare, professional services, travel, and other complex enterprise environments, including large-scale identity transformations, M&A integrations, and global IAM operations. Prior to Humana, he worked in identity and cybersecurity consulting at KPMG and held identity leadership roles across several organizations.
Jesse is passionate about moving identity beyond access administration and treating it as an active security and risk-management capability.
Attackers don't always need to break in when identity already provides a path. Compromised users, stale privileged access, service accounts, OAuth grants, MFA fatigue and now AI agents all create new opportunities for identity to become the incident.
This session explores how organizations can evolve from traditional IAM operations to a true Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) model.
Attendees will learn which identity signals matter most, how IAM and SOC teams can work more effectively together, and how to develop practical response playbooks for compromised users, privileged access abuse, service account risk and AI agent misuse.
