Last month Steve had a conversation with Aysha Khan (CISO Treasure Data) for the latest episode of the Candid CISO podcast.

She shares her journey and insights on leadership, empathy, and the changing role of a CISO. She emphasizes the importance of building trusted relationships, driving accountability, and connecting security to the business. Aysha believes in leading with empathy and compassion, using a carrot rather than a stick approach.

Also in this episode, Aysha emphasizes the importance of grit, emotional regulation, and investing in others for personal and professional growth. She also discusses the role of leaders in serving others and creating a positive impact.

????Welcome to Season 5 of the Nonconformist Innovation podcast. For this episode I have an opportunity to sit down with Katy Ruckle and Jordan Burris to discuss the future of identity verification, privacy implications, and the ethical considerations of AI in both the public and private sectors. We explore the complexities of implementing biometric technologies, the regulatory landscape, and the importance of public-private partnerships in advancing digital identity solutions. We also talk about the influence of state-specific laws on the use of biometric identifiers and the implications for businesses, opt-in vs opt-out, and attempt to answer whether consent is dead. ??

?????? Excited to be in Nashville for the Identity Theft Resource Center - Nonprofit Identivation Summit tomorrow… but before we kick things off I got to join Steve Tout, MBA on his Nonconformist Innovation Media Podcast for an in-depth discussion around how #digitalidentity is underpinning the movement around #customerexperience in #government. ?? Here are just a few ways that Socure is helping governments deliver best-in-class digital services to their citizens: ? Simplified Access to Services: A unified digital identity allows citizens to access multiple government services with a single login, reducing the need for multiple usernames and passwords. This single sign-on (SSO) capability enhances convenience and reduces friction in interactions with government services. ? Personalized Interactions: With a robust digital identity system, governments can offer more personalized services. By leveraging data, agencies can tailor interactions based on individual needs and preferences, creating a more user-centric experience. This personalization can extend to proactive service delivery, where citizens receive notifications and services based on their life events and circumstances. ? Streamlined Processes: Digital identity facilitates the automation of various government processes, reducing the need for manual intervention and paperwork. For instance, applying for benefits, renewing licenses, or paying taxes can be completed online, saving time for both citizens and government employees. ? Trust and Transparency: Building trust is crucial for any government-citizen relationship. A secure digital identity system ensures that citizens' data is handled transparently and securely. By providing clear information on data usage and implementing strong data protection measures, governments can enhance trust and encourage more citizens to engage with digital services. However, achieving this vision requires a foundational approach that prioritizes interoperability, data governance, user-centric design, and robust #security. As governments continue to innovate and embrace #digitaltransformation, a strong digital identity framework will be essential for creating seamless and engaging citizen experiences. Charlotte S.
