Скачать или смотреть Why 25 Years of Identity Work Just Became Obsolete

Ian Glazer reflects on 25 years in identity and reveals the plot twist nobody saw coming - the rapid obsolescence of traditional identity approaches we've relied on since Enron and SOX.

What started as a career following interesting work and smart people led Ian through every corner of identity, from network admin to analyst to founding IdPro. But now he sees something different happening. The plumbing we've spent decades building is finally good enough, yet the speed at which identity systems must operate has to dramatically increase.

The breaking point has arrived. We can no longer tolerate legacy systems that worked before AI and cloud transformed how enterprises operate. Identity is no longer just about password resets - it's become a key control plane for business resiliency, enterprise risk mitigation, and customer experience.

Ian shares stories from Burton Group's "golden dump truck" culture, the speakeasy conversation that launched his analyst career, and why the identity community remains one of the most welcoming in tech. He discusses the Digital Identity Advancement Foundation's mission to remove barriers to participation and why IdPro serves as a safe space for practitioners at every level to ask questions and learn.

The conversation explores how AI is forcing identity to evolve beyond traditional access certification approaches, why standards keep getting reinvented until we get truly round wheels, and how human connections at conferences remain irreplaceable for career growth.
