About Me

Hi, I'm Andrew.

I'm Andrew Chanthaphone — an IAM practitioner, educator, and LinkedIn Learning instructor on a mission to make Identity & Access Management approachable and career-changing for everyone.

Over my career I've worked across business analyst, project manager, and director-level IAM roles in both the federal and commercial sectors. I specialize in Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, and SailPoint, and I've led large-scale tenant-to-tenant migrations in highly regulated environments.

I've spoken at Identiverse and Cyberjutsu Con, appeared on Identity at the Center, and built this community because IAM is one of the most important — and underappreciated — disciplines in cybersecurity today.
