Why Identity Is The Digital Trust Accelerator

Mattias Bolander, Regional Vice President, Nordics, Okta

Where once in-person interaction and brand reputation were the drivers of trust, now customer experience is key. Consumers and citizens alike are increasingly willing to share aspects of their digital identity in exchange for greater convenience and personalised services.

The Human Aspect of Digital Identity

John Erik Setsaas, VP of Identity and Innovation, Signicat

John Erik will talk about the need for knowing who people are, and the challenges with using passwords for this purpose. There are several mitigations to address these problems, and using eIDs provides a better solution, although most of the eIDs are also based on a password in one form or another.

Signicat eID provides a single API towards more than 30 different eIDs, which simplifies the job for service providers with customers in different countries. The Okta integration makes this integration even simpler to achieve. Finally, John Erik will take a look into the crystal ball on what is coming in terms of digital online identification with the EU digital wallet.

 

Putting it all together: Building a consistent, user-friendly solution for identity proofing

Andreas Faltin, Cloud Architect, Cloudworks

Customer interaction is always tricky. We want to remove boundaries and steppingstones but also need to make sure that we fulfill legal and business requirements to avoid misuse and provide all the security required. Learn how an eID solution like Signicat can be integrated into an existing solution and not only secure the environment but enrich the user experience.
