Identity in the C-Suite? The Role of the Chief Identity Officer
The idea of a chief digital identity officer role has been kicking around in my head for well over a year. As Andi and I were talking about this year’s Identiverse, it became clear that the time was right to bring this notion to the big stage and start a meaningful conversation. We put together an amazing group of people to join in:
- Heather Hinton - CISO, PagerDuty
- Clar Rosso - CEO, (ISC)2
- Heidi Wachs - Managing Director, Stroz Friedberg, an Aon company
To say I was thrilled to be on the same stage as these amazing people is a heck of an understatement. Heidi is a long-time friend, near-ish neighbor, and we used to work together at Gartner. Heather holds a special place in my history as an identity practitioner: she introduced me to the patent process and was kind enough to ask me to help on a patent for federated provisioning many (many) years ago.

Welcome Identiverse 2023 with Identity at the Center
Jeff and Jim, the hosts of the amazing Identity at the Center podcast, positioned themselves right outside the opening reception at this year’s Identiverse. They grabbed passers-by and get their thoughts. It was a lot of fun to chat with them and preview both my talks and my longer recording sessions with them at Identiverse.

Deep Dark Secrets of IAM... Revealed! with the Cloud Security Podcast by Google
Years ago, I worked Anton Chuvakin at Gartner. He was in the Security team and I was in the Identity and Privacy team. Although we never had an opportunity to write something together, we definitely got to kick ideas around the teams and it was a blast.
Flash forward a few (ok, many) years, and I got to sit down with him and his partner in crime Timothy Peacock on their Cloud Security Podcast. As the name would imply, it’s a podcast about, well, cloud security. And here I come the IAM guy… and the sparks flew. Leaving aside Anton coming in super-hot about identity, it was an absolute blast to be on the show!
