The conference focused on identity and access management (IAM) and featured various sessions, including talks on identity proofing, FIDO, and the future of IAM. The event addressed COVID-19 concerns, with attendees noting a lack of rapid testing stations and vaccination checks, but overall felt safe. The in-person experience was considered more engaging than virtual ones, allowing for better interaction and spontaneity. Identity proofing solutions were discussed, focusing on automatic recognition of government documents, facial recognition, and ensuring manual fallbacks when machine learning fails. FIDO, an alliance promoting strong passwordless authentication, was also a key theme, with attendees discussing its adoption in various industries. The conference provided valuable insights into the complexities of IAM, highlighting the need for custom solutions to manage multiple identity stores and applications. Overall, the event was well-organized and offered a platform for networking and learning about emerging IAM trends.
