?? What does *your* organization want to ask the identity industry? ?? It’s an intense fall conference season in the identity industry, with so many events and great conversations that inform our products and projects. IDPro has another way to help organizations build that information: we’re introducing a new benefit for top-tier IDPro members next year that will let you help design questions for the next IDPro Skills, Programs, and Diversity Survey. Starting in January 2025, our Gold, Platinum, and Diamond members will have the opportunity to shape questions beyond the capabilities and demographics of our industry. You will be able to gather valuable insights from hundreds of responses, informing your product strategies, project planning, and hiring decisions. For almost 10 years, our survey has provided a window into the demographics and interests of identity professionals—extending beyond just our membership. And now, your organization can leverage this resource to gain critical industry insights. ?? Interested in learning how this and other benefits could support your organization? Let’s chat!

#FeatureFriday: Revisiting the Power of Multi-Factor Authentication with a Spotlight on Passkeys #ICYMI: IDPro members Dean H. Saxe, CIDPRO H. Saxe and Khaled Zaky’s article on Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) from the IDPro Body of Knowledge continues to be highly relevant—especially after the recent Authenticate Conference, where passkeys and phishing-resistant authentication methods took center stage. ?? Key Points: ? The Importance of MFA: MFA is a critical security tool that protects against various threats such as credential stuffing, phishing, and account takeovers. Implementing more than one authentication factor strengthens defenses against unauthorized access. ? The Role of Passkeys: Passkeys, highlighted in this article, are a promising evolution in authentication, offering a highly phishing-resistant alternative to traditional passwords. Passkeys can be synced across devices for seamless use while maintaining security. ? Reducing Single-Factor Authentication Risks: The article emphasizes why single-factor authentication, like passwords, is outdated and vulnerable to attacks. Incorporating newer methods like passkeys into your MFA strategy is key to staying ahead of the evolving threat landscape. As the conference discussions made clear, passkeys are the future of secure, user-friendly authentication. Explore how you can incorporate these tools into your security strategy by reading the full article. https://lnkd.in/gmJtBdbt #MultiFactorAuthentication #CyberSecurity #Passkeys #DigitalIdentity #IAM #Authentication #FeatureFriday #IDPro

One of my favorite sessions at #authenticate24 coincidentally involved two of my favorite people: Dean H. Saxe, CIDPRO and Pamela Dingle. I touched on this a few years ago, but they articulated this in far better fashion: why our current ways of thinking about authentication strength (the classic MFA trio) is outdated and...well...wrong. This photo is a perfect example: It is bit of an eye chart thanks to my delightful photography but in it is a dummy entry in 1Password that includes 4 mechanisms/secrets for authentication, but how many factors is it? Conventional wisdom would say the password + TOTP = 2, but they are both retrieved from the same device and even the same app & record. Needless to say, there is a healthy debate to be had on this subject. I highly recommend watching this talk once it is up. #MFA #2FA #identity #authentication
