Agenda highlights
16:00 – Welcome & Introduction to Iasa
16:30 – When Apps become Agents: Identity Management in Microsoft Entra by Raymond Comvalius and Sander Berkouwer, known as the IT Bro’s.
AI agents are becoming a new category of digital identities within organizations. But what identity should you assign to an agent, where does the trust boundary lie, and how do you prevent autonomy from leading to uncontrolled access?
In this session Raymond and Sander take you from the familiar world of App Registrations, Enterprise Applications, and workload identities to the new architecture of Agent Identities in Microsoft Entra. Through architectural insights, practical examples, and demos, they show how agents are changing existing identity, security, and governance challenges. You’ll gain a practical framework for making decisions about identity, trust, permissions, ownership, and lifecycle, and above all discover why an agent is not simply “just another application.”
17:30 – Dinner & Networking
18:00 – 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐘𝐀 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 by Hans Nouwens , Enterprise Architect LUMC and Board member KNVI for over 10 years.
This model is widely used in the Netherlands to assess the maturity of an architecture function. In practice, however, assessments are often carried out with paper questionnaires or spreadsheets. That can be labour-intensive and makes it harder to compare results over time or between teams.
In this presentation, Hans Nouwens will introduce both the assessment method and new online tooling that makes the assessment digital, consistent, and actionable. The tooling provides immediate insight and practical advice on the next steps in your architecture function’s growth.
It is based on the original peer-reviewed DYA publications and will be released later this year as an open-source WordPress plugin
