From in-depth discussions with industry leaders to live demos of KeeperPAM, Identiverse 2025 was a powerful reminder of the critical role of privileged access management.

Thanks to everyone who connected with us!

I finally got around to writing a follow-up to my previous blog post that was triggered by Patrick Opet's open letter, regarding the tradeoff organizations make: sacrificing foundational security for business velocity.

In this post, fueled by conversations I had at Identiverse, I explore how we can change that, by trying to answer the real question: Why aren’t we building secure-by-design systems, even when we know how? Spoiler: It's about incentives.

Check it out and let me know your thoughts.

Secure-by-Design has an Incentive Problem – Talking Identity

As the last day of Identiverse kicks off, and I bask in the warmth of this incredible, incredible community I call family (not gonna tag all of you because you know who you are), I couldn’t ignore what tugged at my heart every time I ordered coffee in the morning.

Miss you my friend. All the time.

Just a few days to go till Identiverse, the largest gathering of identity professionals on earth - all packed into the Mandalay Bay in Vegas. What could go wrong? Stories will be shared, lessons learnt, fun will be had. Can’t wait to meet up with friends old and new and figure out new ways to avoid having to take a shot someone says “Agentic AI”.
So many great sessions on the agenda, it’s going to be a tough time choosing between them. I will be taking the stage twice myself.
On Wednesday, I will be giving a talk about the dangers of “build fast, break fast” in digital identity projects, and how we can responsibly balance innovation with societal needs, especially when it comes to citizen identity initiatives. [https://identiverse.com/idv25/session/?idvid=2812757]
Appropriately enough, I will follow that up on Thursday by joining Tina as she once again leads a workshop on overcoming obstacles to innovation in identity and security. It got an amazing reception last year, and I’m sure will be a ton of fun again. [https://identiverse.com/idv25/session/?idvid=2835460]
Hope to see you there.
