WHAT:

Utilizing Verifiable Credentials for Vendors and Contractor Access

The W3C Verifiable Credential standard is gaining traction in many circles. In this session Mike Engle will explain how organizations can use this standard today to enable contractors and partners to safely access their internal systems, while providing a more secure and user-friendly alternative to federated authentication.



Trends in Passwordless Authentication for CIAM

Passwordless helps reduce account takeover fraud, provides better security and reduces end-user friction. But each organization faces its own set of challenges when deploying customer facing passwordless because of the unique user journeys they must support. In this session Huzefa Olia will present best practices an organization can follow to smooth the transition to passwordless access for customer-based applications.
