1
00:00:09,700 --> 00:00:12,500
You're listening to the identity
of the sender podcast. 

2
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,600
This is a show that talks about 
identity and access management 

3
00:00:15,700 --> 00:00:18,600
and making sure you know who has
access to what let's get 

4
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:25,300
started. 
Welcome to the identity of the 

5
00:00:25,300 --> 00:00:27,500
sender podcast I'm Jeff and 
that's Jim. 

6
00:00:27,500 --> 00:00:31,100
Hey Jim hey Jeff, how are you? 
Oh not so bad yourself good. 

7
00:00:31,100 --> 00:00:34,200
But a little bit sad I'm having 
to go through the process of 

8
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,200
canceling. 
My reservations for the identity

9
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,100
versus conference. 
Just have too much stuff going 

10
00:00:40,100 --> 00:00:43,800
on and I'm not going to be able 
to make it and I know I've been 

11
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,700
telling everyone on the podcast 
recently that I was going to be 

12
00:00:46,700 --> 00:00:49,000
there. 
This podcast is going to go live

13
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,800
the day before and I'm very sad 
that I'm not going to be able to

14
00:00:51,808 --> 00:00:55,400
be there in person, but I'm 
hoping doing Least be able to 

15
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,300
catch the sessions virtually. 
We have lots of friends there. 

16
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,200
I think I've shared, I won't be 
there by the time. 

17
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,000
People are listening. 
This, I will be neck-deep in 

18
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,100
boxes. 
Moving a house moving moving out

19
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:09,700
of my house and into another 
house the same week. 

20
00:01:09,700 --> 00:01:12,200
So kind of Bittersweet and was 
looking forward to it. 

21
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,800
Especially this being the first 
conference that's being run by 

22
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,400
different organization than 
paying kind of truly separates 

23
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,500
it from, from, from them and 
makes a little more vendor 

24
00:01:21,500 --> 00:01:23,900
neutral method. 
It wasn't before, but it's been 

25
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,800
in a while. 
I was at RS a few weeks ago, and

26
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,700
it was cool to kind of see 
people there, you know, be able 

27
00:01:28,700 --> 00:01:32,200
to kind of fist-bump folks that 
I hadn't seen in a very long 

28
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,600
time. 
I did see Vittorio on the 

29
00:01:34,607 --> 00:01:38,000
street, I think, after we 
recorded because we recorded on 

30
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,900
this tutorial is on the shree 
Bose. 

31
00:01:39,900 --> 00:01:43,900
You like once-over. 
Now it's one of those things 

32
00:01:43,900 --> 00:01:45,900
you're heading your you know 
every night there's like some 

33
00:01:45,900 --> 00:01:48,100
sort of activity and I don't 
know what he's doing is going to

34
00:01:48,100 --> 00:01:51,600
get food or something like that.
I was like done for the day and 

35
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,800
I saw him from a distance. 
I mean Miss that hair. 

36
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,200
We can't miss. 
I heard, yes. 

37
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:57,500
I was like, oh, that's what are 
you guys like? 

38
00:01:57,500 --> 00:02:00,700
And we were working on something
specifically for this show, so 

39
00:02:00,700 --> 00:02:03,600
we'll get to that in a second. 
So I kind of want Harry I fist 

40
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,100
bump him and say, you know, 
what's going on in chat for a 

41
00:02:06,107 --> 00:02:08,600
second and then kind of went on 
our way is, but that was pretty 

42
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,200
much like the conference was 
like, you know, like a 30 

43
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,200
seconds to one minute to minute 
fist bump and then like, hustle 

44
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,900
and bustle off to the next thing
that was out there. 

45
00:02:16,900 --> 00:02:20,800
But the good news was that you 
were seeing Victoria on the 

46
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,800
streets, because he couldn't get
a hotel, which I know for sure. 

47
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,600
Conferences in the past special,
ersa that can sometimes be an 

48
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,900
issue. 
It is so hard to get a good 

49
00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:33,000
hotel for our site. 
You have to book the day that 

50
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,700
they announced it, or you are 
staying far away, you're taking 

51
00:02:36,700 --> 00:02:38,500
shuttles or yeah, you're just 
out of luck. 

52
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,600
Hopefully, you're not crossing 
the Bay Bridge. 

53
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,400
It's a, it's a try to make it 
but yeah, that's, that's the 

54
00:02:44,408 --> 00:02:46,500
approach that we talked about, 
you know, last time we were 

55
00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:49,800
talking about, this was make 
sure you book early and book, 

56
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,000
often hotel rooms are going RSA,
that's right. 

57
00:02:54,100 --> 00:02:58,100
It's all just yeah, this thing 
that we were talking about with 

58
00:02:58,100 --> 00:03:00,900
the torrio that I sort of tease 
the little bit. 

59
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:07,000
This actually came as a result 
of a conversation that you and 

60
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,000
myself and Andy hindle who was 
on the show a few weeks ago kind

61
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,500
of we're talking about. 
I think it was actually even 

62
00:03:12,500 --> 00:03:15,200
during like one of just kind of 
like our pre-meeting kind of 

63
00:03:15,208 --> 00:03:17,600
getting setup and mic check and 
right you know all that good 

64
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,200
stuff and we're kind of thinking
about as you know, has Has the 

65
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,200
definition of identity and 
access management changed. 

66
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,200
It was like okay well that would
be kind of an interesting show 

67
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,000
because I feel like it kind of 
has and there's a lot of 

68
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,300
different terms sometimes used 
for this right? 

69
00:03:32,300 --> 00:03:37,000
Digital identity. 
I am I DM you know all different

70
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,200
color of identity words that 
could be out there and say oh 

71
00:03:40,208 --> 00:03:42,600
well maybe we can turn this into
a show and my original thought 

72
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,500
was, hey, let's do like a live 
panel like, you know, we have 

73
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:48,600
this wide stream, I'm having a 
little bit of will do it mostly 

74
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,100
because my schedule sucks. 
It should be stabilizing here in

75
00:03:52,100 --> 00:03:53,600
a couple of weeks after I get 
moved. 

76
00:03:54,500 --> 00:03:56,100
But I thought was I think it 
will be interesting to get, you 

77
00:03:56,100 --> 00:04:00,100
know, some of the identity as we
like to say, you know, on the 

78
00:04:00,100 --> 00:04:03,800
show in some way and kind of 
have a Roundtable discussion and

79
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,200
then actually you had the 
brilliant idea was I want to we 

80
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,900
just asked people the question 
and have them email in there. 

81
00:04:10,900 --> 00:04:14,700
Are audio response, so I guess 
Jim you want to kind of take you

82
00:04:14,700 --> 00:04:17,600
take us through the process and 
how we got to where we are 

83
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:18,800
today, and from your 
perspective. 

84
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,800
Yeah, you know, I think you do. 
No, they're pretty good there. 

85
00:04:23,100 --> 00:04:26,900
You know, I think what would 
happen was Andy, kept saying, 

86
00:04:26,900 --> 00:04:29,400
digital identity, digital 
identity, and I thought to 

87
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,000
myself, whatever happened to I 
am. 

88
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,600
And so I asked him that 
question. 

89
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,800
What's the difference between 
digital identity and I am and it

90
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,400
kind of stumped them, right? 
And he's like, well this is a 

91
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,900
longer answer. 
This would be a longer answer 

92
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:49,200
than we have time for in, you 
know, this little bit of the 

93
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,500
episode. 
So, We make it a follow-up 

94
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:54,600
episode and then from there, we 
kind of, as you mentioned 

95
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,500
evolve, the idea to this kind of
Round Table and we're going to 

96
00:04:58,500 --> 00:05:02,900
go through the recordings that 
were submitted in the order they

97
00:05:02,900 --> 00:05:05,800
were said to us, so no 
particular order. 

98
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,400
But do you want to go through 
and kind of like mention each 

99
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,700
person and played the clip and 
then comment? 

100
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,500
Yeah, I will emcee this and so 
the oh yeah, the way it's worked

101
00:05:16,500 --> 00:05:19,600
was, you know, Jim spammed 
everybody that we could think of

102
00:05:19,900 --> 00:05:22,900
sending Male to say hey here's 
the question if you wanted to 

103
00:05:22,900 --> 00:05:26,100
record like a two to three 
minute, sort of answer on what 

104
00:05:26,100 --> 00:05:29,000
your thoughts are and the 
question that we posed to 

105
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,400
everyone, was this, what's the 
difference between digital 

106
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,300
identity and identity and access
management really kind of 

107
00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:36,900
looking to see? 
You know, what the different 

108
00:05:36,900 --> 00:05:40,500
responses where we got responses
from a few different people. 

109
00:05:41,300 --> 00:05:44,500
We have Ann Glaser, he's a 
senior vice president identity 

110
00:05:44,500 --> 00:05:46,700
product management. 
At Salesforce, he's a friend of 

111
00:05:46,707 --> 00:05:49,400
the show been on the show before
Sarah such a tea. 

112
00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:52,500
She's the head of product. 
Amazon Cognito another person 

113
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:54,500
who's been on the show, actually
all these people have gone to 

114
00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:58,200
show, he's mailer Chief 
technologist, technology officer

115
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,900
at Ford Rock, we've got Adam 
Michael, who's a data management

116
00:06:01,900 --> 00:06:06,400
officer and director for it risk
identity and Adjunct professor 

117
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,400
at Texas A&M University and then
our old friend Jamie Lewis 

118
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,700
grows, who's the vice president 
Solutions, engineering and 

119
00:06:12,700 --> 00:06:15,700
strategy at stadiums. 
So, now by saying that Jeff 

120
00:06:15,700 --> 00:06:18,000
you're not calling Jamie old, 
right? 

121
00:06:18,100 --> 00:06:20,200
Here's your beautiful friend for
a long time. 

122
00:06:20,500 --> 00:06:24,200
She has and I think I'm, I think
I am older than she is. 

123
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:29,400
So she I've got her beat on that
one, but here's his inches like 

124
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,200
when she let you listen. 
So if you're listening to the 

125
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,000
show and you stick around for 
when Jamie gets into hers let's 

126
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,800
just say she ages herself as 
well. 

127
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,200
How about that of her own you 
know volition whether it is 

128
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,800
sorry JB don't mean to throw you
under the bus but you start off 

129
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,500
with it. 
But yeah. 

130
00:06:46,500 --> 00:06:49,900
And the other thing is cool here
is I think really the only 

131
00:06:49,900 --> 00:06:53,500
answer that Jim has heard so far
is Ian's. 

132
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,900
So the other is Jim hasn't even 
really kind of listened to and 

133
00:06:56,900 --> 00:06:58,800
Jamie's is going to be a 
complete surprise to the first 

134
00:06:58,800 --> 00:06:59,700
time. 
So, a lot of this will be a 

135
00:06:59,707 --> 00:07:03,100
combination of reaction. 
Mostly on Jim's Park. 

136
00:07:03,100 --> 00:07:05,900
I have heard them all because I 
have added them together and, 

137
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,200
you know, prepped sort of the 
Sound Stage here as we're 

138
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,400
recording. 
So it'll be interesting. 

139
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,400
So why don't we go ahead and get
started? 

140
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,300
And the question again, as we 
ask people was what's the 

141
00:07:16,300 --> 00:07:19,700
difference between digital 
identity and identity and access

142
00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:22,500
management And this first clip 
is from Ian Glazer. 

143
00:07:23,100 --> 00:07:25,000
So at first, I thought that this
question. 

144
00:07:25,300 --> 00:07:27,900
What's the difference between I 
am and digital identity was an 

145
00:07:27,900 --> 00:07:31,900
easy one to answer and then I 
realized it's absolutely not. 

146
00:07:32,300 --> 00:07:36,000
And it's the reason why it's 
not, it's not because if you ask

147
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,200
three identity people, what 
their definition is of a 

148
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,700
specific identity term. 
You'll get six answers. 

149
00:07:42,300 --> 00:07:47,500
It's because in within the 
question is actually a bunch of 

150
00:07:47,500 --> 00:07:51,000
different issues So I think at 
the surface layer, the 

151
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:57,600
difference is in my mind, I am. 
Although it used to be the way, 

152
00:07:58,300 --> 00:08:01,900
certainly analyst referred to 
the General market of digital 

153
00:08:01,900 --> 00:08:07,200
identity has become shorthand 
for Workforce, identity, and 

154
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,000
access management. 
So I think in sort of more 

155
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,200
modern parlance, I am is the 
work force equivalent of Siam. 

156
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,500
Okay. 
And so then that's true. 

157
00:08:18,700 --> 00:08:23,000
We're left wanting an umbrella 
term that could cover both 

158
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:28,300
Workforce, identity, and Siam 
and all the other bits that are 

159
00:08:28,300 --> 00:08:32,200
starting to become integral to 
the industry. 

160
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,299
And so to me, digital identity 
has become that umbrella term 

161
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,900
problem is that's not entirely 
ideal. 

162
00:08:42,100 --> 00:08:45,600
It certainly leaves areas out of
the conversation. 

163
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,900
So for example, if you talk to 
an identity practitioner Then 

164
00:08:48,900 --> 00:08:51,600
you say hey do you work on 
identity theft? 

165
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,500
The likely say no that's not 
Identity or that's not the 

166
00:08:55,500 --> 00:09:00,300
identity I work on and if you 
you know, ask another 

167
00:09:00,300 --> 00:09:05,600
practitioner about you know, how
much they do in terms of source,

168
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,700
documentation verification for 
legal identity, bound to a 

169
00:09:09,708 --> 00:09:12,100
digital credential depending on 
industry. 

170
00:09:12,100 --> 00:09:16,300
And they may say well I don't do
that at all and so the identity 

171
00:09:16,300 --> 00:09:20,800
and identity documents which off
Often come from the physical 

172
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,800
world and now are starting to 
make their way in the digital 

173
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,200
world that often gets left out 
of the conversation to. 

174
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:29,300
So the reason why I'm thinking 
about these things is because 

175
00:09:29,300 --> 00:09:34,800
boundaries are important in 
names in this case really come 

176
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,000
with a set of boundaries and 
that helps Drive Clarity in the 

177
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,800
conversation. 
Well one thing that that you 

178
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:46,700
know I realized was actually a 
couple years ago Andrew Nash at 

179
00:09:46,700 --> 00:09:48,500
the time. 
I think he was with Capital One.

180
00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:52,500
Give me a really good talk. 
That basically said, hey, you 

181
00:09:52,500 --> 00:09:54,200
and the audience think you're 
doing identity management. 

182
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,700
What you're probably actually 
doing is just user account 

183
00:09:56,700 --> 00:09:59,300
management and he wasn't being 
demeaning, he was saying like 

184
00:09:59,300 --> 00:10:01,700
look the totality of the things 
that go into. 

185
00:10:01,700 --> 00:10:05,700
What many of us do on a 
day-to-day basis is user account

186
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,800
manipulation assignment of title
entitlements doing the identity 

187
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:14,200
Plumbing but we weren't doing 
was the more holistic. 

188
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,400
I have a digital representation 
of this legal entity and all of 

189
00:10:18,408 --> 00:10:21,400
the Things associated with it, 
let's manage those things. 

190
00:10:21,900 --> 00:10:25,800
Which notionally would be 
identity management or digital 

191
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:31,000
identity management. 
So coming back around, I think 

192
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,300
the answer is at the surface 
level. 

193
00:10:33,300 --> 00:10:37,200
I am is now become shorthand for
Workforce identity, then all the

194
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,200
things associated with a classic
Enterprise Workforce, identity, 

195
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,800
infrastructure and digital 
identity is the umbrella term 

196
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:47,000
for the industry, but I think 
that's maybe not as exact as it 

197
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,700
could be. 
And, you know, Again given the 

198
00:10:49,700 --> 00:10:51,800
opportunity to talk about 
definitions. 

199
00:10:52,300 --> 00:10:53,800
Everybody's got a bunch of 
opinions. 

200
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,900
Those are mine. 
Alright so that was Ian Glaser 

201
00:10:56,900 --> 00:10:58,600
at Salesforce? 
What are your thoughts? 

202
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,900
Jim. 
I think that he got to the heart

203
00:11:01,900 --> 00:11:05,600
of kind of what I think the 
difference is, which is that 

204
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:12,300
it's a, it's kind of how your 
its wording around, you know, 

205
00:11:12,300 --> 00:11:15,000
what is the classification of 
the industry? 

206
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,100
Now, he's saying identity and 
access management has been 

207
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,800
Become kind of a focus on the 
workforce part of this whole 

208
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,400
digital identity space, whereas 
I think is kind of like a 

209
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,000
historical change this happens, 
like we started out with the 

210
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,300
industry of identity and access 
management and yes it was 

211
00:11:34,300 --> 00:11:37,500
Workforce. 
And yes you know at the time if 

212
00:11:37,500 --> 00:11:40,000
you look at the solutions that 
were on the market, they were 

213
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,800
identity Management Solutions, 
wasn't even IGA and their access

214
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,400
Management Solutions that they 
were. 

215
00:11:46,700 --> 00:11:48,500
How do you protect your 
websites? 

216
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,800
Less about federating out. 
There's more about protecting 

217
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:56,200
the systems that you had so the 
classification identity and 

218
00:11:56,208 --> 00:12:00,000
access management did it very 
well for the time and then as 

219
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:05,000
what kind of start to build up 
in the space kind of grew and 

220
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:10,600
added new scope, it kind of 
stretch and the term identity 

221
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,800
and access management. 
I feel like became less 

222
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,400
descriptive of what this whole 
Space has become. 

223
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,600
Come, which includes customer 
identity management, which 

224
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,400
includes self Sovereign, 
identity, and identity. 

225
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,200
Verification of these things 
that no longer to determine 

226
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,900
identity and access management 
fit very well. 

227
00:12:31,900 --> 00:12:35,500
And I think the term digital 
identity has been around for a 

228
00:12:35,508 --> 00:12:39,800
while, but people weren't really
taking it seriously, until 

229
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,100
within the last. 
Let's say, 34 years, where I 

230
00:12:44,100 --> 00:12:47,500
feel like it's, you know, people
are starting to now break from 

231
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:51,500
using I Am I still use? 
I am but that's kind of the way 

232
00:12:51,500 --> 00:12:54,100
I am. 
I still write with a pen on a 

233
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:59,000
piece of paper sometimes and the
term digital identity is kind of

234
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:04,700
taking over which encompasses 
this much larger area and I 

235
00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:07,000
think it's probably just more 
appropriate. 

236
00:13:07,100 --> 00:13:08,300
Yeah. 
One thing that he said that 

237
00:13:08,300 --> 00:13:13,400
struck me was this delineation 
between I am as being like 

238
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:18,200
Workforce and Siam or customer 
identity access management. 

239
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,100
I know you of I have really kind
of figured out some of that 

240
00:13:22,100 --> 00:13:24,200
stuff as we were kind of talking
over the last couple of years. 

241
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,500
We've started to call it, like, 
E. 

242
00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:29,700
I am Enterprise. 
I am versus Siam or see, I am 

243
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,200
customer. 
I am maybe it's not easy. 

244
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,300
I am maybe it's w. 
I Am Workforce identity and 

245
00:13:35,300 --> 00:13:39,900
access management or maybe why I
am Prince, I am right, things 

246
00:13:39,900 --> 00:13:41,400
like that. 
But I think it is interesting 

247
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,000
that the definition clearly has 
changed. 

248
00:13:44,500 --> 00:13:48,300
I'm a little surprised, not 
surprised because we're going to

249
00:13:48,300 --> 00:13:52,200
have more More answers here at 
the perspective that it seemed 

250
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,400
to me. 
When I was taking is that I am 

251
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:59,400
sort of fits underneath the 
umbrella of digital identity. 

252
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,600
I can see a situation where 
people might have a definition 

253
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,400
of digital identity as sort of 
like a Civic or citizen type 

254
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,200
identity. 
Will be interesting if he is. 

255
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:12,000
You listen here to some of the 
other folks that we've got, if 

256
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,600
you know, how, how close are 
some of these definitions and 

257
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,900
how different some of them are, 
because I think the perspectives

258
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:19,100
really are pretty. 
Different. 

259
00:14:19,900 --> 00:14:23,000
Why do we go ahead and get into 
Sarah's such a tea? 

260
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,500
Next? 
She's with Amazon Cognito, we 

261
00:14:25,500 --> 00:14:27,600
asked her, the question. 
What's the difference between 

262
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,500
digital identity and identity 
and access management? 

263
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,400
What's the difference between I 
am and digital identity? 

264
00:14:33,900 --> 00:14:37,000
I was tempted to say there is no
difference between I and digital

265
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,800
identity, and I suspect that's 
what many experts will tell you,

266
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,200
but that's not true. 
There's a very important and 

267
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,600
over, which difference, there's 
a division of the US government 

268
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,100
called the National Institute 
for standards and Acknowledge 

269
00:14:49,100 --> 00:14:51,400
our nests and their job is to 
measure things. 

270
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,000
How long is a meter? 
Ask Nest, how heavy is a 

271
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,600
kilogram? 
Ask missed. 

272
00:14:57,300 --> 00:14:59,700
Well in the 21st century, they 
started measuring not just 

273
00:14:59,700 --> 00:15:02,800
physical things, but digital 
things like security and 

274
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,000
identity. 
They wrote a document called 

275
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:09,500
special publication 800-53. 
The publication outlined a way 

276
00:15:09,500 --> 00:15:13,100
to measure how strong an 
identity transaction was and it 

277
00:15:13,100 --> 00:15:15,000
used in measure, called level of
assurance. 

278
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,700
How sure can I be that the 
person at the end of the line is

279
00:15:17,700 --> 00:15:19,800
who they say they are. 
R, as that document went into 

280
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,200
broad use, they found it had 
cracks in its armor. 

281
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,000
It wasn't doing the job that it 
was intended to do because it 

282
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,200
was too one-dimensional, and it 
was one dimensional and exactly,

283
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:29,600
the access that we're focusing 
on. 

284
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,400
In this episode, it conflated, I
am with digital identity. 

285
00:15:34,100 --> 00:15:36,200
It said that the strongest 
transactions have both strong 

286
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,300
authentication mechanisms and 
strong identity proofing, 

287
00:15:39,700 --> 00:15:42,300
meaning that we verified the 
real-life identity of the person

288
00:15:42,300 --> 00:15:45,700
at the end of the line. 
But that measured me leaves no 

289
00:15:45,700 --> 00:15:47,600
room. 
For a very important use case 

290
00:15:48,100 --> 00:15:50,000
stronger. 
The authenticated Anonymous 

291
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,300
users. 
Imagine a political dissident 

292
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,900
who wants to tell the story of 
what she's experiencing in her 

293
00:15:54,900 --> 00:15:57,900
country but she needs to keep 
her identity hidden that her 

294
00:15:57,900 --> 00:16:00,700
government won't find her. 
Do we need strong authentication

295
00:16:00,700 --> 00:16:02,500
for that person? 
Absolutely. 

296
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,100
We need to use the strongest 
technology we have to make sure 

297
00:16:05,100 --> 00:16:07,500
that her lines of communication 
haven't been compromised. 

298
00:16:08,100 --> 00:16:09,700
Do we need strong identity 
proofing? 

299
00:16:09,700 --> 00:16:12,500
Shouldn't person. 
No identity proofing. 

300
00:16:12,500 --> 00:16:14,700
That person could actually 
compromise her safety. 

301
00:16:15,300 --> 00:16:17,600
We need strong. 
I am without strong digital 

302
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,100
identity. 
That's one missed hired a team 

303
00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:22,900
of identity experts, including 
myself to rewrite the whole 

304
00:16:22,900 --> 00:16:24,800
concept of identity 
verification. 

305
00:16:25,300 --> 00:16:27,100
We throughout the 
one-dimensional limiter and made

306
00:16:27,100 --> 00:16:30,000
it three dimensional. 
Now, instead of one level of 

307
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,700
assurance, there are three 
identity Assurance level 

308
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,100
authenticator Assurance level 
and Federation Assurance level 

309
00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:39,900
because I am and digital 
identity are, and must remain 

310
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,600
different. 
All right, so what do you think 

311
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,000
about saris answer? 
Well, I think that that's a very

312
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,100
good use case, right? 
And I haven't hadn't thought of 

313
00:16:48,100 --> 00:16:51,900
that. 
I can see where she's coming 

314
00:16:51,900 --> 00:16:53,700
from. 
Yeah, I mean that, I mean, it's 

315
00:16:53,700 --> 00:16:55,500
obviously, you know, given the 
state of the world, right? 

316
00:16:55,500 --> 00:16:58,800
The the political dissidents and
government distances and things 

317
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,900
like that, that are happening, 
certainly makes the case for. 

318
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,400
Okay. 
So, what is what is addition to 

319
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:10,300
definition of digital identity 
and she's exported it into three

320
00:17:10,300 --> 00:17:13,900
dimensions is, are those enough 
Dimensions? 

321
00:17:13,900 --> 00:17:16,000
Is there a fourth dimension 
space and time? 

322
00:17:16,099 --> 00:17:19,800
It may be, you know what? 
Is the the right way to look at 

323
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:25,200
or maybe maybe the definition 
changes based on the use case 

324
00:17:25,500 --> 00:17:26,800
which might be a little bit 
tricky to. 

325
00:17:27,300 --> 00:17:31,900
Yeah I remember in the early 
days of I am some people kind of

326
00:17:31,900 --> 00:17:36,100
making the argument, I'm Jim 
McDonald. 

327
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:41,300
So why can't I just be Jim 
McDonald whether I'm using my 

328
00:17:41,700 --> 00:17:45,100
Google login or my corporate 
login? 

329
00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:48,300
I'm still the same person. 
I think the case is Sir. 

330
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,800
I was making is that sometimes I
don't want you to know that Jim 

331
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:57,100
McDonald make this statement 
because if I speak out I make 

332
00:17:57,100 --> 00:18:00,200
disappear the next day. 
So there are times where 

333
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,900
Anonymous is what I want to be. 
I want to separate that 

334
00:18:03,900 --> 00:18:10,100
authentication so my right to 
access that account from who I 

335
00:18:10,100 --> 00:18:14,400
am as a person. 
I think the you know the other 

336
00:18:14,500 --> 00:18:17,000
aspect to this could be just 
thinking about. 

337
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:21,300
It is it could be The identity 
of things which again is kind of

338
00:18:21,900 --> 00:18:27,500
fallen into originally fell into
I am maybe wasn't the best fit, 

339
00:18:27,700 --> 00:18:31,300
definitely under the digital 
identity umbrella but you know, 

340
00:18:31,300 --> 00:18:36,500
I think that it's it's one of 
the biggest conundrums of I am 

341
00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:40,400
or digital identity is does the 
thing really have an identity? 

342
00:18:40,500 --> 00:18:41,700
Yeah. 
And it in the same way as a 

343
00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:44,400
person with the timing with the 
the news out of Google, right? 

344
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,800
With one of the one of the folks
in Google saying that they're 

345
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,400
aii. 
This is his Come sentient, or at

346
00:18:49,408 --> 00:18:51,500
least appears to be your, some 
like that. 

347
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,500
Yeah, I mean, does does a thing 
have an identity. 

348
00:18:55,500 --> 00:18:57,300
I mean, clearly there's internet
of things. 

349
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,000
And now, I think we're 
stretching into the line of 

350
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:06,500
digital identity of things. 
So does a smart thermostat, 

351
00:19:06,900 --> 00:19:09,600
which clearly lives in the real 
world, I can touch it. 

352
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:15,700
It has its own digital identity 
on the network, or you know, 

353
00:19:15,700 --> 00:19:18,000
whatever it may be the platform 
that it's connected to. 

354
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,900
I think I feel like if this was 
a video podcast, I'd be like 

355
00:19:21,100 --> 00:19:25,400
using that exploding brain gift 
right now, we're going to be 

356
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:26,900
coming out of the top of your 
head. 

357
00:19:27,300 --> 00:19:29,700
Yeah, exactly. 
All right. 

358
00:19:29,700 --> 00:19:31,000
Why don't we move to the next 
one? 

359
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,200
This is Eve Mahler. 
She's a chief technology officer

360
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,000
at Ford truck. 
We asked her. 

361
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,300
What's the difference between 
digital identity and identity 

362
00:19:39,300 --> 00:19:43,600
and access management Identity 
language has been a contentious 

363
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:48,900
subject for a long time thinking
back to the beginnings of iiw, 

364
00:19:48,900 --> 00:19:52,200
the internet identity Workshop, 
the original effort by that 

365
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,600
Community was to actually 
develop a lexicon comprehensive.

366
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,500
Lexicon. 
It was tough going then and I 

367
00:19:58,508 --> 00:20:01,200
think it's always tough going in
this area. 

368
00:20:01,900 --> 00:20:07,000
How I see digital identity as a 
phrase is that it applies to the

369
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,100
users of or the interactors with
identity. 

370
00:20:10,300 --> 00:20:14,900
Technology. 
And I see, I am as being about 

371
00:20:15,300 --> 00:20:19,700
the implementation of identity 
technology in whatever guys. 

372
00:20:20,300 --> 00:20:23,100
So, when it comes to digital 
identity, the kind of the user 

373
00:20:23,100 --> 00:20:26,700
perspective, you know, most 
people interact with identity in

374
00:20:26,708 --> 00:20:29,900
a way that actually isn't all 
that Pleasant identity theft is 

375
00:20:29,900 --> 00:20:31,800
probably the first thing that 
comes to mind. 

376
00:20:32,100 --> 00:20:34,800
And a lot of times that 
interaction is actually in an 

377
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:39,400
offline fashion versus an online
runtime authentication. 

378
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:44,100
For example, Fashion. 
When it comes to, I am that term

379
00:20:44,100 --> 00:20:46,900
itself is, is a bucket for a lot
of other different things and 

380
00:20:46,900 --> 00:20:49,300
sometimes they overlap. 
But I am, sometimes there may be

381
00:20:49,300 --> 00:20:51,800
a little bit apart. 
So identity management, kind of 

382
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,300
life cycle, considerations 
access management, really all 

383
00:20:55,300 --> 00:20:59,100
the runtime considerations and 
also governance and 

384
00:20:59,100 --> 00:21:03,400
administration which gets into 
the world of really operational 

385
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,200
things. 
And there's this phrase that I 

386
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,400
really like lately bolts, which 
is business, operational, legal,

387
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,400
technical answer, societal. 
So that's kind of the game that 

388
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:18,600
you get into when you talk about
both the above, the water user 

389
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,800
considerations and the below, 
the water, implementer 

390
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,800
considerations one, of the 
things that I find when I just 

391
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,800
talked with ordinary people out 
there who don't do what I do 

392
00:21:28,100 --> 00:21:33,000
about, what you call the jobs to
be done of digital identity. 

393
00:21:33,300 --> 00:21:38,000
Is that all of the things people
expect to get from this sort of 

394
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,900
Technology, it cross-country. 
Sweet things businesses want as 

395
00:21:41,900 --> 00:21:43,800
well. 
You know, I have a new Venn 

396
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,200
diagram about this where, I 
think, in terms of protection, 

397
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:51,100
and personalization, and 
payment, and people, so there 

398
00:21:51,100 --> 00:21:55,100
are unique needs among all of 
those categories and they cross 

399
00:21:55,100 --> 00:21:58,900
cut quite a lot of things like 
achieving security is actually 

400
00:21:58,900 --> 00:22:02,200
something that's welcomed by 
people. 

401
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,900
And by businesses, it applies 
across all of the identity 

402
00:22:05,900 --> 00:22:08,300
language but I thought that was 
pretty interesting. 

403
00:22:08,300 --> 00:22:11,800
The definition is it? 
She has for the to, and kind of 

404
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,100
seems to me like it was it's, 
you know, changes a little bit, 

405
00:22:14,100 --> 00:22:16,200
right? 
Whether your I am or digital 

406
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,200
identity, what are you thinking?
Yeah, it's interesting because 

407
00:22:19,900 --> 00:22:23,200
going to allow my mental 
definition to adapt. 

408
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,700
As I hear these recordings 
because there's really, you 

409
00:22:25,700 --> 00:22:28,900
know, as I was listening to Ian 
that like you said, I was the 

410
00:22:28,900 --> 00:22:33,500
only one who listened to you 
beforehand, kind of saw identity

411
00:22:33,500 --> 00:22:37,700
and access management as a 
subset of digital identity as 

412
00:22:37,700 --> 00:22:40,100
those listening to Yves like 
kind of thinking there, too. 

413
00:22:40,300 --> 00:22:43,700
Separate Concepts rate, identity
and access management 

414
00:22:43,700 --> 00:22:48,700
potentially is something I do 
with all these processes to, you

415
00:22:48,700 --> 00:22:52,200
know, manage who gets access to 
what which I think is the 

416
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,200
traditional definition right? 
But then, when I think about 

417
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,500
digital identity, I'm actually 
thinking about some 

418
00:22:58,500 --> 00:23:03,700
instantiation of say, apple has 
this concept of who Jim McDonald

419
00:23:03,700 --> 00:23:09,100
is and I can, you know, have 
apples vision of Jim McDonald 

420
00:23:09,100 --> 00:23:13,600
but it really Kind of has a 
border around it and then Google

421
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,600
has a different definition of 
the digital identity for Jim 

422
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,800
McDonald. 
And then as Jim McDonald, I've 

423
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,400
got all these digital identities
running around, maybe they all 

424
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,300
tie back to me. 
But essentially, they're like a 

425
00:23:26,300 --> 00:23:30,500
data set that these companies 
have about me. 

426
00:23:30,900 --> 00:23:33,700
They're like a digital 
fingerprint of me. 

427
00:23:33,900 --> 00:23:37,300
Maybe they can grant me access 
to things within their border. 

428
00:23:37,300 --> 00:23:40,600
Maybe they can grab me to access
to things beyond my Border. 

429
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,600
So you know, maybe OCTA has that
digital Identity or that 

430
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:49,000
thumbprint about Jim McDonald 
and it can pass me on to concur 

431
00:23:49,300 --> 00:23:55,800
for example but yeah, so so 
maybe rather than I am being a 

432
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,100
part of digital identity 
representing, you know, 

433
00:23:59,100 --> 00:24:02,800
Workforce or even some set of 
Technologies. 

434
00:24:03,100 --> 00:24:08,400
It's it is that Workforce set of
Technologies, how I go and 

435
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,600
manage. 
But then the digital Identity is

436
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,900
a separate concept which is 
these companies have this 

437
00:24:14,500 --> 00:24:18,200
fingerprint this data set about 
me and that is with digital 

438
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,700
identity is yeah, I think it's 
interesting if we take that 

439
00:24:21,700 --> 00:24:24,600
concept of okay, when it's 
concept digital identity and 

440
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,400
separate out from what is 
identity and access management, 

441
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,400
it's typically a collection of 
services that are being done. 

442
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,300
Its identity management, its 
access management privileged 

443
00:24:34,300 --> 00:24:36,700
access government student 
Administration, make things that

444
00:24:36,700 --> 00:24:41,900
you've mentioned, even even the 
the The service of running. 

445
00:24:41,900 --> 00:24:47,900
And I am program is a service 
within that, and now you're 

446
00:24:47,900 --> 00:24:49,800
starting to help. 
People are starting to catch on 

447
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,900
as like, this is hard to Define 
because people have different 

448
00:24:53,900 --> 00:24:57,000
interpretations of, you know, 
digital identity. 

449
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,400
What does it mean? 
Does it mean your your 

450
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,900
fingerprint, you know, so to 
speak online or other digital 

451
00:25:03,900 --> 00:25:08,400
transactions or is it meant to 
be the overarching? 

452
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:12,100
Well, we know it's more than I 
am and we need to come out 

453
00:25:12,100 --> 00:25:14,500
somehow say that. 
Well, we both do boats you know,

454
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:16,600
I am from an Enterprise 
perspective but you also do it 

455
00:25:16,608 --> 00:25:20,400
from a customer side and you 
know, we do other things other 

456
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,200
than technology, maybe it's 
program. 

457
00:25:22,300 --> 00:25:24,500
You know, does that fit under 
the bucket or that definition? 

458
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,300
I think it's interesting. 
You know, as we're kind of going

459
00:25:27,300 --> 00:25:30,000
along. 
I was certainly I certainly had 

460
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,500
sort of a in my head definition 
and as I listened to these over 

461
00:25:34,500 --> 00:25:37,500
and over and over again, stir 
that through the editing process

462
00:25:37,500 --> 00:25:42,300
and prepping the show it. 
Changed a little bit and now 

463
00:25:42,300 --> 00:25:47,100
I'll be honest, I'm not sure 
what to think it's so let's keep

464
00:25:47,100 --> 00:25:51,500
going and let's now hear from 
Adam Michael over at Texas A&M 

465
00:25:51,500 --> 00:25:55,900
and what his answer was to the 
question of what's the 

466
00:25:55,908 --> 00:25:58,400
difference between digital 
identity and identity and access

467
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,100
management? 
When I think about the 

468
00:26:00,100 --> 00:26:05,000
difference between I am and 
digital identity, I really think

469
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:12,000
that they are overlapping sets. 
So I see digital T as being a 

470
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,800
key component of an overall, I 
am strategy so digital identity 

471
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,900
to me and I'm coming from the 
perspective of a higher 

472
00:26:20,900 --> 00:26:26,200
education environment, but so 
much of what we do now, learning

473
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:31,100
and research is moving to an 
online environment and the 

474
00:26:31,100 --> 00:26:34,700
ability to authenticate someone 
and know that, okay, if Joe 

475
00:26:34,700 --> 00:26:38,400
student is taking a test, we 
actually have the correct person

476
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,000
on the other end of the online 
resources. 

477
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,900
Taking that test, right? 
It's important that we have an 

478
00:26:44,900 --> 00:26:49,600
easy way for our students and 
our faculty to assert their 

479
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,200
identity, in a digital space. 
Now that's just step one. 

480
00:26:53,300 --> 00:26:57,800
Write authentication, and saying
that this person actually is who

481
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,700
they say they are. 
But when we talk about, I am it 

482
00:27:00,700 --> 00:27:04,700
goes beyond that and we have 
this concept of giving them 

483
00:27:04,700 --> 00:27:07,900
access to resources. 
So once we've verified their 

484
00:27:07,900 --> 00:27:12,200
identity in a digital space, we 
To be able to grant them access 

485
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:17,000
to the right things in the right
way and the right time, right? 

486
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,800
So that's the access component 
in I am. 

487
00:27:20,300 --> 00:27:25,200
And so I really see digital 
identity and I am as being very 

488
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:30,000
closely related and maybe even 
overlapping sets I am being the 

489
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,600
superset of something. 
A concept that digital identity 

490
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,200
fits inside, all right? 
So remember when I was saying 

491
00:27:37,500 --> 00:27:40,400
maybe digital identities overall
Adam, when a different way, He 

492
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:45,200
sees it the opposite where 
digital identity is a component 

493
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,400
of identity and access 
management, which I can kind of 

494
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:49,900
get behind as well. 
What are you thinking? 

495
00:27:50,100 --> 00:27:53,300
Yeah, because show you that. 
There's there's no wrong answer 

496
00:27:53,300 --> 00:27:57,800
here. 
It's it definitely makes you 

497
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:02,300
think because I think it kind of
even brings in that concept of 

498
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:07,800
the thumbprint. 
Now I assert or I authenticate 

499
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,800
myself, is I am Jim McDonald. 
Now, you can take that 

500
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:15,100
thumbprint of data and you know,
go go ahead and Associate it 

501
00:28:15,108 --> 00:28:18,500
with me through whatever 
interface I'm using. 

502
00:28:18,500 --> 00:28:21,500
And when he thinks about 
identity and access management, 

503
00:28:21,500 --> 00:28:25,000
it's all those processes that 
are included. 

504
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,800
So, I mean, that's definitely a 
valuable perspective. 

505
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,200
It. 
I think what's so interesting is

506
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:36,400
like that. 
You can have two people who live

507
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:41,300
in this world independently come
up with, totally Opposite, you 

508
00:28:41,300 --> 00:28:45,300
know, configurations of which 
one encompasses the other. 

509
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:48,300
That that's why I think it is. 
Such a good question. 

510
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,000
Well, here's another wrinkle 
throught. 

511
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:54,100
So, the people that we asked, 
Adam is the only one that's 

512
00:28:54,100 --> 00:28:58,100
actually in the business side of
is practitioner is not, yeah, 

513
00:28:58,100 --> 00:29:01,500
he's a practitioner, right? 
He's not a vendor, he's not an 

514
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:05,300
identity person. 
For example, right, he has more 

515
00:29:05,300 --> 00:29:09,600
on the business delivery of 
identity Services, rather than a

516
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:14,500
product. 
T', person which Ian, Sarah Eve 

517
00:29:14,500 --> 00:29:17,700
and Jamie coming up, are all 
more on the identity product 

518
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,200
side of things. 
So it is interesting to hear 

519
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,000
sort of like the business 
definition or do business 

520
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,200
answer. 
You know, from someone like that

521
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,800
to say, okay. 
Well here's here's how the 

522
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,500
business of Senate, which I 
thought was interesting. 

523
00:29:28,700 --> 00:29:34,000
Yeah, I think one of the things 
that I also have was thinking 

524
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:38,500
about is, you know, especially 
like Ian's case and Yves case, 

525
00:29:38,500 --> 00:29:41,500
because I think the first time, 
Met the two of them is close to 

526
00:29:41,500 --> 00:29:45,900
20 years ago at identity and 
access management conferences 

527
00:29:45,900 --> 00:29:48,400
and they were part of this 
identity arathi, right? 

528
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,500
And there's many other folks who
were kind of there in that is 

529
00:29:52,700 --> 00:29:57,100
that I am was this, you know, 
especially conferences, were 

530
00:29:57,300 --> 00:30:01,100
people really talking about was 
what is an identity like these 

531
00:30:01,100 --> 00:30:03,400
really philosophical 
conversation? 

532
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,900
And I've been in it at that 
point for probably about, you 

533
00:30:06,900 --> 00:30:10,000
know, eight years. 
I was like, I've never run into 

534
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:17,100
Into a new look with in it wears
like all about are so much of it

535
00:30:17,100 --> 00:30:22,000
was about the philosophy of what
we're doing here and so that's 

536
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:26,200
really what the roots of I am. 
And so I kind of heard that a 

537
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:31,200
lot in their answer as well as 
kind of that coming from those 

538
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,500
roots. 
Deep thinkers deeper thinkers. 

539
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:35,600
Yeah, for sure. 
All right. 

540
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,200
Why don't we go to Jamie Lewis 
Grace and her answer to the 

541
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,900
question of, what's the 
difference between a digital 

542
00:30:41,900 --> 00:30:44,300
identity and a dating access 
management? 

543
00:30:44,300 --> 00:30:48,400
And she's from sabian's, I was 
asked what's the difference 

544
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,500
between I am and digital 
identity? 

545
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,100
Well, this is a lot to unpack in
a very short amount of time, 

546
00:30:56,500 --> 00:30:58,400
because I've been at this for a 
very long time. 

547
00:30:58,700 --> 00:31:03,200
And I've seen the industry 
evolve, I am Identity and access

548
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:07,000
management. 
So early on I am was often 

549
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:11,800
synonymous with authentication 
it then pushed into automation 

550
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:16,700
of processes password management
efficiency gains reduction of 

551
00:31:16,700 --> 00:31:20,000
cost. 
Ultimately I saw I am become the

552
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,400
umbrella of Technologies and 
policies to manage access and 

553
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,200
mitigate risk. 
Inclusive of not only 

554
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:32,000
authentication single sign-on 
and multi-factor but then 

555
00:31:32,100 --> 00:31:35,000
Started to extend into 
privileged access management 

556
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:39,100
identity governance and 
administration risk profiling. 

557
00:31:39,100 --> 00:31:44,400
Authorization are back a back P 
vac and the focus was really 

558
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,300
always all in the workforce at 
least from from my experience 

559
00:31:48,300 --> 00:31:52,300
and so that brings me to digital
identity. 

560
00:31:52,300 --> 00:31:57,300
So digital identity has extended
Beyond just the carbon-based 

561
00:31:57,300 --> 00:32:01,800
identities of our Workforce, our
vendors, our suppliers, our 

562
00:32:02,100 --> 00:32:07,000
Contractors. 
It's encompassing of b2c, B2B G 

563
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,700
to C, but also was very 
important to understand is it's 

564
00:32:10,700 --> 00:32:16,000
taken on the Silicon identities 
to those not, well managed 

565
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,900
service accounts and included, 
certificates Keys devices, 

566
00:32:20,900 --> 00:32:25,000
workloads containers. 
It goes on and on think about 

567
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,600
it, as you know all of the 
machine related identities that 

568
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:32,300
are out there and what's 
happening is with digital This 

569
00:32:32,300 --> 00:32:36,700
formation initiatives there is a
exponential growth of connected 

570
00:32:36,700 --> 00:32:40,600
devices and these machine 
identities use to manage process

571
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,400
Automation. 
And it's really creating that 

572
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:49,700
larger surface and and threat 
attack Vector, really opening 

573
00:32:49,700 --> 00:32:52,700
organizations up to the Cyber 
vulnerabilities. 

574
00:32:53,100 --> 00:32:57,700
So you know, when we also think 
about digital identity often we 

575
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:03,200
also think about the specific 
personal data So whether it be 

576
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,700
personas on social media, 
whether it be someone's online 

577
00:33:07,700 --> 00:33:13,600
bank account access to Amazon 
Netflix, that's all digital 

578
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,200
identity as well. 
And then, there's that digital 

579
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,600
blueprint that really is 
surrounding us. 

580
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,500
We rely on it. 
It might be the nest thermostat 

581
00:33:21,500 --> 00:33:23,900
in your home. 
Your home Wireless, the security

582
00:33:23,900 --> 00:33:28,100
systems that surround you. 
The list goes on and on personal

583
00:33:28,100 --> 00:33:32,000
identity in the digital format 
is as Limitless. 

584
00:33:32,100 --> 00:33:36,200
Our data's continually analyzed 
and it's, it's used, it's used 

585
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,700
against us. 
It positions, adds to us, it 

586
00:33:38,700 --> 00:33:40,400
sells to us. 
It's funny. 

587
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,300
Just the other day. 
My 84 year old father-in-law, 

588
00:33:44,300 --> 00:33:46,800
was essentially taken advantage 
of. 

589
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,600
Because he did an innocent 
search at the library, looking 

590
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,100
into knee pain. 
And before, you know, it he's 

591
00:33:53,100 --> 00:33:57,600
purchasing something online 
that, you know, has little 

592
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,600
information about it, but it was
served up to him through an ad. 

593
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:04,300
So there's just so much Much 
more I could go on and on about 

594
00:34:04,300 --> 00:34:07,500
and discuss. 
But I want to end by saying 

595
00:34:07,500 --> 00:34:11,699
that, you know, right now, for 
personal digital identity and 

596
00:34:11,699 --> 00:34:14,500
the information that's used. 
There's very little control. 

597
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,800
So as we go forward in a world 
of evolution, you know, I think 

598
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,600
that the future is really going 
to demand better protection and 

599
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:27,699
controls of the personal 
information and with that, you 

600
00:34:27,699 --> 00:34:31,300
know, in the future maybe my 
father-in-law won't blindly 

601
00:34:31,300 --> 00:34:34,400
purchase some Misguided product 
for his knee pain. 

602
00:34:34,699 --> 00:34:37,300
So I hope I have answered your 
question today. 

603
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,199
All right, well, first of all, a
couple notes, a hopefully her 

604
00:34:40,199 --> 00:34:41,699
father-in-law's knee is feeling 
better. 

605
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:43,699
Second of all. 
I'm going to give her bonus 

606
00:34:43,699 --> 00:34:47,600
points for using the term. 
Carbon-based life-forms is part 

607
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,199
of her answer and then third 
circling back to the very 

608
00:34:50,199 --> 00:34:53,500
beginning when age was brought 
into it. 

609
00:34:53,500 --> 00:34:55,600
She's the one who said she's 
been doing this for a long time,

610
00:34:55,699 --> 00:34:57,600
not me, there you go. 
I think it's, I think it's 

611
00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:01,400
interesting that she brought up 
the Privacy angle and the really

612
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,400
kind of private think it's that 
kind of go hand in hand with 

613
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,500
those some of those. 
And it's the first time that 

614
00:35:05,500 --> 00:35:09,200
that has been mentioned in this 
conversation was ownership 

615
00:35:09,500 --> 00:35:12,700
really of the attributes of the 
digital identity and how they're

616
00:35:12,700 --> 00:35:14,600
used. 
So, yes. 

617
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,800
And so here's what I was 
thinking as I was listening to 

618
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,300
Jamie, is that there's two ways?
This question could be 

619
00:35:22,300 --> 00:35:26,800
interpreted, one is, what do 
people mean when they say, 

620
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,300
digital identity versus identity
and access management? 

621
00:35:30,300 --> 00:35:34,100
So in other words, when people 
use the Those terms, what are 

622
00:35:34,107 --> 00:35:38,200
they trying to differentiate? 
Or when you hear those terms? 

623
00:35:38,300 --> 00:35:41,800
What do you think of? 
And then there's the question of

624
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,800
what should those terms mean, 
right? 

625
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,700
And I think if you answer that 
it might be a different answer 

626
00:35:48,700 --> 00:35:53,000
than the previous question. 
So as I've been listening to 

627
00:35:53,008 --> 00:35:56,100
these responses, I'm getting 
more and more on the side that 

628
00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:04,000
digital identity is really this 
thumbprint Of who of data about 

629
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,800
you. 
Now, one thing that I've run 

630
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:10,100
into overtime in the identity 
and access management consulting

631
00:36:10,100 --> 00:36:12,800
or digital identity Consulting, 
whatever you want to call it 

632
00:36:13,100 --> 00:36:19,500
right is Winters. 
That data, stop being, I am 

633
00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:23,400
data, right? 
So when what data is I and 

634
00:36:23,700 --> 00:36:26,500
actually one thing I would 
differ differentiate from what 

635
00:36:26,500 --> 00:36:29,900
Jamie said, but I first got into
identity and access management 

636
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,200
it seemed like it was all about 
Directory synchronization and 

637
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,800
ldap data, and we got all the 
cell data. 

638
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,800
How do we manage the ldap data? 
And then the applications are 

639
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:42,200
going to bind to the ldap and 
authenticate or of an access 

640
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,000
management system that binds the
of that but is all about 

641
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,000
directories. 
But you know what used to be the

642
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:52,300
boundary of what was identity 
data or digital at your digital 

643
00:36:52,300 --> 00:36:55,400
Identity. 
Or I am data was what was in the

644
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:59,300
directory? 
I think that what we found with 

645
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,600
virtual directories is now you 
Can expand that out and they 

646
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,700
take it to another sub match. 
If we had Dan Creed from meta, 

647
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,600
answer this question, what is 
the digital identity? 

648
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,700
What it, what is your digital 
identity thumbprint well, now 

649
00:37:13,700 --> 00:37:18,200
it's, you know, all these 
different data points that you 

650
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,500
can, you couldn't even imagine 
where are you? 

651
00:37:21,500 --> 00:37:24,100
And you think, well, maybe 
that's marketing data to me, 

652
00:37:24,100 --> 00:37:27,300
that's what like the digital 
identity data is, where's the 

653
00:37:27,300 --> 00:37:31,100
identity and access management 
is what is the data that? 

654
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,600
What you should have access to 
great. 

655
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,500
So one, what is my credential 
data? 

656
00:37:37,500 --> 00:37:41,100
What is the data that is needed?
For me to authenticate myself? 

657
00:37:41,300 --> 00:37:45,100
And then what defines? 
What's going to give me access? 

658
00:37:45,100 --> 00:37:49,300
It could be attributes for 
attribute based authentication, 

659
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,200
or it could be roles and things 
like that. 

660
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:56,400
But that is my, I am data but it
seems to me the digital identity

661
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,800
goes beyond like what are my 
shopping preferences? 

662
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:04,700
What is my Location, you know, 
especially like I was at 

663
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,100
Starbucks the other day or every
time I go to Starbucks down if 

664
00:38:08,100 --> 00:38:11,000
you get in the drive thru drive 
by it, it's like, you know, on 

665
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,600
your iPhone. 
It pops up with your Starbucks 

666
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,200
app. 
Like, you know, you can just 

667
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,800
push this button and go in and 
and have a latte if you'd like. 

668
00:38:19,700 --> 00:38:24,500
So all of that data analysis is 
kind of extending its marketing 

669
00:38:24,500 --> 00:38:28,000
data but it's kind of becomes 
your digital identity. 

670
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,000
I don't know. 
It's so to me that that could be

671
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:37,000
What actually is a digital 
identity versus I am not 

672
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,300
necessarily how the terms you 
because I believe the terms are 

673
00:38:40,300 --> 00:38:44,200
being used as a replacement. 
I think that when you look at 

674
00:38:44,700 --> 00:38:47,600
consulting firms they're just 
replacing their identity and 

675
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:51,100
access management practice with 
digital identity. 

676
00:38:51,300 --> 00:38:53,500
You're saying yeah we have a 
digital identity practice. 

677
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,300
You know five years ago would 
have been called their identity 

678
00:38:56,300 --> 00:39:00,200
and access management practice. 
So to me dish identity is 

679
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:04,600
replacing identity access 
management from lexicon 

680
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,900
standpoint, but I think that 
they should have a deeper 

681
00:39:07,900 --> 00:39:09,200
meaning. 
That's interesting. 

682
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,900
I think I think you're totally 
right, especially that last 

683
00:39:11,900 --> 00:39:15,000
example, there are like 
Consulting, what do you call? 

684
00:39:15,100 --> 00:39:16,800
What is it? 
You say you would do around 

685
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:17,800
here? 
Well, what are you? 

686
00:39:18,500 --> 00:39:21,100
I'm, I am consult a. 
Yeah, yeah. 

687
00:39:21,300 --> 00:39:27,100
Or I'm a digital identity 
consultant or two people, you 

688
00:39:27,100 --> 00:39:30,000
know, how do I, how do I name 
the practice that I'm, you know,

689
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,000
starting and running up is I am.
Is it digital identity? 

690
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,300
Is it secure digital identity? 
Is it just identity? 

691
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:37,600
I don't know. 
I think it's interesting. 

692
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,900
I think having listened to, you 
know, five really smart people 

693
00:39:41,900 --> 00:39:47,300
and then us listen to, you know,
pontificate on this is, I think 

694
00:39:47,300 --> 00:39:51,600
the definition morphs and 
changes on a couple things. 

695
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:53,900
It's the first is, who were you 
talking to? 

696
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,000
And the second is, what is the 
point that you're trying to get 

697
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:00,500
across is if I'm talking to 
someone who doesn't know 

698
00:40:00,500 --> 00:40:03,300
anything? 
NG about identity and access 

699
00:40:03,300 --> 00:40:06,000
management or digital identity, 
I'm going to try and keep it 

700
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:12,000
simple and I might use vaguer 
language that you know, is maybe

701
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,400
easier to understand or try to 
articulate versus hey Jim. 

702
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:19,200
Let's go talk about why we 
should be using you know, adfs 

703
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,600
for authentication and then you 
know that's what we should. 

704
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:22,700
That's a bad example. 
Sorry. 

705
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,600
She recently using modern 
standards for authentication but

706
00:40:25,700 --> 00:40:28,200
you know having a more technical
conversation and talking through

707
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,900
identity and access management 
versus just this Umbrella of 

708
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:37,000
identity, which has other 
connotations to it to write, 

709
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,600
especially in the physical world
with gender and things like 

710
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,200
that. 
So now we're like, okay, well, 

711
00:40:42,900 --> 00:40:47,500
where is the line for identity? 
I don't know what to tell you. 

712
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:51,300
I think I went into it. 
Originally with the idea of 

713
00:40:51,300 --> 00:40:55,300
like, okay, well, I see, I am as
a subset of this broader thing 

714
00:40:55,300 --> 00:41:00,400
called digital identity visual 
identity is the concept of 

715
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,800
power. 
We managing identity and access 

716
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,000
management in a digital way, 
whatever that looks like having 

717
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:11,100
listened to Adam like, okay, I 
can certainly see that where its

718
00:41:11,100 --> 00:41:14,100
flipped on its head in my world 
and like, okay, well digital 

719
00:41:14,100 --> 00:41:16,800
identity sort of a component of 
identity and access management. 

720
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:18,700
If I say, I think about it from 
a service standpoint. 

721
00:41:18,700 --> 00:41:23,000
What is it that we're actually 
offering and then you brought me

722
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:24,900
back when you set up your on the
Consulting side, how would you 

723
00:41:24,908 --> 00:41:27,100
explain what you do? 
Okay. 

724
00:41:27,100 --> 00:41:31,100
Well I run an identity practice.
And I think that's how I've been

725
00:41:31,100 --> 00:41:33,400
introducing really kind of 
myself. 

726
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,800
Is you know, talk to me about 
identity and that's kind of 

727
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,500
where I'd left it so far but I'm
sure it will continue to evolve 

728
00:41:41,500 --> 00:41:43,600
over time. 
I think, I think what's 

729
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:47,100
fascinating is, you know, we got
five expert opinions and then 

730
00:41:47,100 --> 00:41:50,300
ours and between the seven of 
us. 

731
00:41:50,300 --> 00:41:53,500
None of us really had the same 
answer which I think is why this

732
00:41:53,500 --> 00:41:54,800
made it made it made the 
question. 

733
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,600
So, interesting, when we 
originally talking with Andy 

734
00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:01,000
about it, a few weeks ago and I 
know my Three evolved throughout

735
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,800
the show. 
And I bet you if Ian was 

736
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,700
listening to, there's other 
definitions. 

737
00:42:06,700 --> 00:42:11,000
There'd be things that folks had
said that would, you know, as 

738
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,700
the conversation evolved? 
He probably would evolve his 

739
00:42:13,700 --> 00:42:17,800
definition as well, because 
those perspectives, but I think 

740
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:21,500
the end of the day, we did not 
solve the question, right? 

741
00:42:21,500 --> 00:42:27,200
We got, we just showed that this
is Something that's in flux 

742
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:32,500
something that's happening. 
I think, is a fantastic format 

743
00:42:32,700 --> 00:42:35,300
for raising some questions like 
this in the future. 

744
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:39,200
And I mean, I'd love to hear 
from our listeners. 

745
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:43,600
If this format resonates with 
you, we can go ahead and do some

746
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,700
more episodes like this. 
Yeah, I mean, I think it's easy 

747
00:42:46,700 --> 00:42:49,300
enough to, you know, record on 
your phone, just a simple audio 

748
00:42:49,300 --> 00:42:52,100
clip. 
If you've got a definition of, 

749
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,900
or at least an answer to the 
question of what is the Between 

750
00:42:55,900 --> 00:42:58,200
digital identity and identity 
access management. 

751
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,600
Is there one, feel free to 
record something and tag us on. 

752
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,200
Hit us up on LinkedIn. 
You can attach the file there or

753
00:43:04,500 --> 00:43:06,100
we can figure out how to get 
over to us but I think it's 

754
00:43:06,107 --> 00:43:08,700
something continue on. 
I think with identity versus 

755
00:43:08,700 --> 00:43:11,200
hitting this week you know a lot
of these folks that we heard 

756
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:16,500
from today - us will be there, 
you know, ask them, you know, 

757
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:18,200
what do they need about some of 
the stuff because I think it'll 

758
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,600
be interesting to hear. 
I think it's only right that if 

759
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:24,500
I think if we had all these 
folks in the room I'd be willing

760
00:43:24,500 --> 00:43:28,400
to bet some parts of each 
definition would have evolved 

761
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,900
just within the last 45 minutes 
as we've been talking here. 

762
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:36,600
Absolutely. 
Yeah, so like any good podcast 

763
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,000
we didn't we didn't offer any 
answers, we just talked about it

764
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,200
for 45 minutes, I think, you 
know people can kind of figure 

765
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,200
out and even if we don't have 
the answer, maybe what we did is

766
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,400
we sparked an idea, right? 
In someone's listening out there

767
00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,100
saying, oh, I never really 
thought about it from that 

768
00:43:51,100 --> 00:43:53,200
angle. 
I don't think there's a right 

769
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:57,700
answer or wrong answer. 
I think your is just here's how 

770
00:43:57,900 --> 00:44:01,300
I represent. 
You know, this specific question

771
00:44:01,900 --> 00:44:05,400
and I think I think that's okay.
I just got to be Of about who 

772
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:08,100
you're talking to and what's the
context of the conversation, 

773
00:44:08,500 --> 00:44:11,800
because sometimes things can get
lost in translation, but I don't

774
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,200
know if you're necessarily needs
to be a right answer, right now.

775
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,800
Does it correct? 
So I think your robes out and I 

776
00:44:16,808 --> 00:44:21,100
think that was kind of what we 
expected out of this. 

777
00:44:21,100 --> 00:44:26,500
And we got what we hope for, we 
got what we asked for and but 

778
00:44:26,500 --> 00:44:29,500
like I said, I think this is a 
great format so we come up with 

779
00:44:29,500 --> 00:44:33,800
some other questions, you know. 
I think that we could pursue 

780
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,900
this Format again. 
Yeah, definitely. 

781
00:44:37,900 --> 00:44:39,400
There's a lot of fun to kind of 
put this together. 

782
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:42,300
So, all right. 
So why do we go ahead and start 

783
00:44:42,300 --> 00:44:44,400
to wrap things up? 
I was thinking about, you know, 

784
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,200
what's our end on a lighter note
for this episode? 

785
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:51,500
And I want to jump on what Jamie
was talking about with her 

786
00:44:51,500 --> 00:44:55,300
father-in-law and knee pain and 
some sort of, I don't know 

787
00:44:55,300 --> 00:44:58,000
order, purchase whatever that 
you may or may not be helpful. 

788
00:44:58,000 --> 00:44:59,500
Hopefully, it was, but you never
know. 

789
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:01,500
So, here's my question to you, 
Jim. 

790
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,700
What is the worst or strangest 
online? 

791
00:45:04,900 --> 00:45:10,000
Add, you will admit to that. 
You have been served based on, 

792
00:45:10,300 --> 00:45:12,700
you know, browser, cookies or 
session history, or whatever. 

793
00:45:12,700 --> 00:45:15,000
It may be. 
Well I'm not going to even go 

794
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:20,200
close to the that I would admit 
to kind of thing because I think

795
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,100
I gave you that escape hatch 
just in case. 

796
00:45:22,100 --> 00:45:25,600
Yeah, right. 
So I mean, I wouldn't call 

797
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,800
myself a conspiracy theorist, 
but this one of the strangest 

798
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:33,000
things that happened to me, was,
I grew up in Philadelphia, my 

799
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:34,700
brother, obviously grew up 
there. 

800
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:38,700
As well and I was he still lives
there and I was visiting him and

801
00:45:38,700 --> 00:45:44,800
he lives in an older house which
that the townhouse style 

802
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:46,900
buildings there they call them 
row homes. 

803
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:52,500
It was a row home and there's 
probably 75 100 years old and it

804
00:45:52,508 --> 00:45:58,600
go into his basement and he's 
got this big plastic sink next 

805
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,300
to his washer and dryer. 
At least always call them 

806
00:46:01,300 --> 00:46:04,000
utility sinks. 
Yeah, that was a beauty utility 

807
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:05,100
square, right? 
Yeah. 

808
00:46:05,100 --> 00:46:07,000
It's like a dip Square. 
Deep bass. 

809
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,300
Yep. 
And I said I haven't seen one of

810
00:46:09,308 --> 00:46:10,600
those in years. 
Mike yet. 

811
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,100
You know this utility sink and 
follow. 

812
00:46:13,100 --> 00:46:15,600
We had a whole conversation 
about it and I really hadn't 

813
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:19,700
seen one in years. 
A couple days later and 

814
00:46:19,700 --> 00:46:23,700
advertisement showed up on my 
laptop in Amazon, like it Amazon

815
00:46:23,700 --> 00:46:28,600
ad for utility sink. 
And so, the conspiracy theorist 

816
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:33,400
in me, says, somehow, my phone 
was listening heard utility sink

817
00:46:33,900 --> 00:46:37,900
since some kind of sold, some 
kind of message to Amazon or 

818
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,800
whatever. 
And they served me up in that. 

819
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,700
Did that happen? 
Probably not. 

820
00:46:44,900 --> 00:46:49,500
Maybe just triangulated that I 
was in this area because I do 

821
00:46:49,500 --> 00:46:53,800
think that, you know, location 
is something that can be served 

822
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,300
up, potentially sold to a 
vendor. 

823
00:46:56,900 --> 00:47:01,000
And that maybe there were a lot 
of utility sink purchases within

824
00:47:01,500 --> 00:47:05,900
that area because I would bet 
you every row home and that 

825
00:47:05,900 --> 00:47:08,600
whole neighborhood have these 
utility sink. 

826
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,600
So you know, that's probably 
what happened. 

827
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,900
But yeah, it got me thinking 
like okay it's my phone spying 

828
00:47:14,900 --> 00:47:16,800
on me. 
Yeah we've heard I think I've 

829
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:19,800
heard that before too. 
Like pit level is my phone's by 

830
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:21,600
me. 
Could it be your brother or 

831
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:25,200
someone you know was searching 
for utility sinks for something 

832
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,800
replacement repair whatever. / 
and because at no, you know, the

833
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,000
powers that be know that that's 
her, brother's. 

834
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:32,800
I got a little baby, you might 
be interested in this as well, 

835
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:39,000
right, or whatever way it looks 
like mine is weird and strange 

836
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:43,600
slightly offensive, and 
definitely creepy. 

837
00:47:43,700 --> 00:47:47,200
This, I'll never forget this 
because this was right around 

838
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:49,600
the pandemic. 
Kind of beginning I want to say 

839
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,900
we're about six months into it. 
It feels like it was ages ago 

840
00:47:52,900 --> 00:47:55,900
but I guess that would have been
what 20, 20 gruffly. 

841
00:47:56,500 --> 00:48:00,100
So I want to say it was probably
like around June, maybe July 

842
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,100
were a couple months in a 
lockdown, people, worried do any

843
00:48:03,100 --> 00:48:06,900
things and for whatever reason I
was scrolling through I remember

844
00:48:06,900 --> 00:48:10,600
was Facebook or Instagram is one
of those two and you know you 

845
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:13,900
get as all time for just weird 
stuff and stuff that they think 

846
00:48:13,900 --> 00:48:16,000
it might be interested surf. 
Of course, you know watching 

847
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,100
your browser history and so 
forth and I don't know why this 

848
00:48:19,100 --> 00:48:23,900
came up, but it was a it was a 
ad for I don't know. 

849
00:48:23,900 --> 00:48:26,300
The right terminology is but 
it's like you know, it's Banks. 

850
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:31,200
Our where it's like tights for 
generally for people to like 

851
00:48:31,500 --> 00:48:34,700
look like they're Slimmer. 
Oh, Come usually you'll see 

852
00:48:34,700 --> 00:48:37,800
like, you know, I'm sure it's 
for both sexes, but the ones 

853
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:40,400
that I know of are Spanx are 
like for women where, you know, 

854
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,700
they put it on, it kind of 
Slim's the figure and so forth. 

855
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:47,800
And this was the equivalent. 
But for men as like Spanx 

856
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,400
underwear or compression thing 
that good supposed to go up and 

857
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:54,600
over your belly to try and 
compress things. 

858
00:48:55,100 --> 00:48:57,700
I was like, what the Because 
this seems and then I got 

859
00:48:57,700 --> 00:49:00,700
offenders like, well, I okay, 
yeah, I could lose a few pounds 

860
00:49:00,700 --> 00:49:06,800
and yeah, you know, like, huh. 
I don't know how they are. 

861
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:10,300
You know, they decided that I 
was in that other than okay, 

862
00:49:10,300 --> 00:49:12,400
well here's a person who hasn't 
left his house probably like two

863
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,300
or three months, they probably 
need help. 

864
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,400
You know, we've noticed that 
there's been a lot of doordash 

865
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,600
delivery, a lot of pizza 
delivery. 

866
00:49:22,300 --> 00:49:26,300
Yeah, exactly. 
So I was I was offended mostly 

867
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:31,700
He amused mostly and slightly 
perturbed that. 

868
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,800
Uh you know how dare you make 
that recommendation but I'll 

869
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:37,800
never forget it. 
I was like all right well that's

870
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,300
weird whatever just to get you 
back I'm going to order to 

871
00:49:41,300 --> 00:49:44,000
Frosty's for milk from Wendy's 
right now. 

872
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:46,200
Exactly. 
Well I'm gonna start wearing 

873
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:47,600
them. 
I guess I got to get the maximum

874
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:49,200
value out of it. 
Exactly. 

875
00:49:49,500 --> 00:49:52,800
So I never did order them but 
even though I probably could use

876
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:58,200
them, I thought that was 
Interesting as well. 

877
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,500
Just from a timing perspective 
and I wonder what in went into 

878
00:50:01,500 --> 00:50:05,200
the decision. 
For whatever logic was used to 

879
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:10,200
run that ad location. 
Had to change mostly at home. 

880
00:50:10,900 --> 00:50:15,100
A lot of food, deliveries 
pandemic, I don't know, you 

881
00:50:15,107 --> 00:50:17,800
know, whatever it may be but 
I'll never forget that. 

882
00:50:17,900 --> 00:50:20,400
I think that was just the 
weirdest thing. 

883
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:23,800
I've been served up so far. 
Was that it an Amazon, a door? 

884
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:25,300
Was that? 
Oh, you said that was it? 

885
00:50:25,300 --> 00:50:27,300
I think. 
It was either Facebook or 

886
00:50:27,300 --> 00:50:30,000
Instagram, I can't remember 
which one it was, and the same 

887
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,600
companies like this is really 
matter but, you know, I do 

888
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:36,500
remember where exactly I saw it.
But usually my Facebook ads are 

889
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,700
around like audio equipment 
because that's what I'm looking 

890
00:50:40,700 --> 00:50:43,300
for the podcast, right? 
Or backpacks. 

891
00:50:43,300 --> 00:50:47,000
I have like a bag collection, 
I'm a collector of like, you 

892
00:50:47,008 --> 00:50:48,400
know, nice backpacks, things 
like that. 

893
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,800
So usually that's what I guess 
pan with. 

894
00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:55,100
But this one was just so far out
of like the blue. 

895
00:50:55,100 --> 00:50:57,500
I just didn't, I didn't get And 
I remember showing it to my 

896
00:50:57,500 --> 00:51:00,500
white to I was like leave us and
she's kind of like smiled. 

897
00:51:00,700 --> 00:51:05,300
I was like okay well screw you 
then to it's okay you know your 

898
00:51:05,300 --> 00:51:08,000
buddy look good more of those. 
Yeah exactly. 

899
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:11,600
Alright let's go ahead and wrap 
it up there. 

900
00:51:12,300 --> 00:51:15,900
I really want to thank Ian. 
Sarah Eve, Adam and Jamie. 

901
00:51:15,900 --> 00:51:18,200
For taking the you know the few 
minutes or however many other 

902
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,800
long, it took, you know, it's a 
to get that stuff sent over to 

903
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:22,300
us. 
I thought made for really 

904
00:51:22,300 --> 00:51:24,100
interesting episode. 
I think if you're listening to 

905
00:51:24,100 --> 00:51:28,000
this and you're identifiers, you
know, Try to you know, fist bump

906
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,200
those folks. 
So if they're around and let him

907
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:33,400
know you heard us here and ask 
them to kind of articulate what 

908
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:36,000
they meant and see if if their 
position is changed at all. 

909
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:39,100
But I think that would be 
interesting and if you've got a 

910
00:51:39,100 --> 00:51:42,100
take on it that you think is is 
different, send it to us as 

911
00:51:42,100 --> 00:51:43,200
well. 
Will be happy to play it on the 

912
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:46,000
show and serve discuss it so we 
can go with that. 

913
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:49,100
Before we wrap up any final 
thoughts for this week, Jim, no 

914
00:51:49,100 --> 00:51:50,600
sir. 
I'm not going to see everybody 

915
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:55,900
out there that I did a verse but
next year and, you know, I think

916
00:51:55,900 --> 00:51:57,700
it's good. 
Fantastic conference. 

917
00:51:57,700 --> 00:52:00,400
I'm really so depressed about 
not being there. 

918
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:03,600
Yeah, the energy. 
Level was pretty good at RSA to 

919
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,400
think people are ready to be 
back. 

920
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:08,600
I'm going to try to make it out 
to Gartner in August in Las 

921
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:12,800
Vegas, so maybe maybe that'll be
my next one. 

922
00:52:13,100 --> 00:52:17,600
After my move here, takes place 
over the next week or so. 

923
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,100
So alright. 
I'm going to go ahead and leave 

924
00:52:20,100 --> 00:52:22,700
it there.
