Netwrix Innovation Week: 1Secure Platform & Vision – Reinventing Data & Identity Security

Oct 15, 2025

Join us for the kickoff of our Netwrix Innovation Week podcast series, right in the heart of Cybersecurity Awareness Month. This first episode will feature a discussion of the challenges organizations are facing and how we are innovating our 1Secure™ platform to unify data and identity security to make it easier to improve your security posture. Later in the podcast series, we’ll feature fireside chats from different experts, spotlighting what’s new today and what’s coming soon across DSPM with Netwrix Access Analyzer 26, Copilot readiness, AI data loss prevention, ITDR, MCP Server integration, and more.

At Netwrix, we work with customers that range from small-to-medium sized businesses and municipalities all the way up to the largest global 2000 organizations and national governments. Given the rapid adoption of cloud and SaaS and the persistence of on premises systems and endpoints, organizations of all sizes struggle with common questions: where is our sensitive data, who has access to it, and are we consistently enforcing the right policies to protect our data from malicious threats and accidental exposure.

AI has added both opportunity and urgency. Customers tell us they are concerned about whether sensitive data could be inadvertently exposed through AI engines, as well as how to govern the identities of AI agents—what those agents can access, how they operate, and whether they introduce new risks.

I recently sat down with Grady Summers (CEO), Jeff Warren (Chief Product Officer), and Paul Stephens (Chief Technology Officer) to discuss how we are tackling these challenges directly. From real-world CISO insights to new product innovations, the conversations during Innovation Week highlight both the urgency of the problem and the unique opportunity we have to help organizations address it.

👉 Explore every Innovation Week conversation to hear how Netwrix leaders are reimagining data and identity security across the 1Secure Platform — from AI-driven risk remediation to Copilot readiness and beyond.

1Secure: Our Unified Platform

1Secure brings data and identity security together into a single SaaS platform:

  • Microsoft 365 visibility: find sensitive data, understand how it’s being shared, and identify risky permissions.
  • Identity risk detection: assess Entra ID weaknesses, monitor privilege changes, and alert on dangerous shifts.
  • AI-powered risk remediation: speed your response with automated data and identity risk remediation recommendations that eliminate trial-and-erro
  • Measurable outcomes: show real improvements in posture across data and identity with one platform.

For MSP partners, 1Secure includes one-click tenant provisioning, multi-tenant dashboards, and integrations with ConnectWise and ServiceNow — making it simple to secure dozens or hundreds of clients.

Why We’re Excited About Innovation

Paul Stephens reminded us that innovation is powered by people, portfolio, and platform. He highlighted how customer ideas flow directly into engineering via our Ideas Portal, and how continuous improvements across Threat Manager, Privilege Secure, and Endpoint Protector add value every day. At the same time, we’re making bold moves with AI — reimagining products to be simpler, smarter, and stronger.

“If I could sum it up in three words, it would be simpler, smarter, stronger,” Paul said. “That’s what we’re building, and that’s what we’re innovating.”

What’s Coming Next During Netwrix Innovation Week

Over the next 6 business days, our podcast series will deep dive into numerous topics, including AI innovations, the launch of Access Analyzer 26, Copilot Readiness, and new features for MSPs.

Highlights include:

  • AI at Netwrix: embedding practical AI into workflows.
