We are excited to share our final special episode of the Identity at the Center podcast from the FIDO Alliance Authenticate 2023 conference series!

We had the privilege of taking the stage as part of the opening keynote, joined by three incredible identity product managers: Mahendar Madhavan, Daniel Grube, and Christiaan Brand.

During the discussion, we got into the adoption of FIDO authentication, with a focus on passkeys. It was fascinating to hear valuable insights from our guests about their roles at their respective organizations and their firsthand experiences with implementing FIDO authentication.

But it wasn't all serious business! We also had some lighthearted banter, discussing our hobbies and sharing personal experiences like hiking Yosemite's half-dome. And of course, we couldn't resist asking our guests some fun questions, like which song Daniel would perform to go viral on TikTok and automatically enroll everyone in passkeys!

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to Andrew Shikiar, Megan Shamas, and Adrian Loth for their invaluable help in bringing this show to the conference. It wouldn't have been possible without them!

This past week I had the pleasure of co-presenting and hosting a workshop to build a passwordless authentication solution (using Passkeys) with Amazon Cognito!

Extremely excited to see where the authentication space is going (finally). Time to start getting authorization right...

Many of you asked me about the Vittorio t-shirt I made for #Identiverse, so I created a fundraiser in his honor that allows you to buy it while also having all profits and any additional amount you donate go towards fighting the disease that stole him from us. With #Authenticate2023 starting tomorrow, figured it would be a nice way to show our love for him while also doing something in his memory.

When I made this t-shirt for Identiverse 2023 as a light-hearted joke about Vittorio's many misadventures at Starbucks, I used the "I'm With..." meme as a way to have fun with it. It was done as a surprise for him, and I was thrilled that he loved it so much, and that so many of you loved it as well. Now, the "I'm With..." phrase hits very...
