In today’ conversation, I welcome Kaliya Young, often referred to as Identity Woman, for a Sneak Peak on what to expect from IIW 32, the 32nd Internet Identity Workshop, which will be hosted virtually.

For over 15 years, it has been the premier place to bring together the largest concentration of talent dedicated to designing and building identity systems that empower individuals.

Kaliya is an internationally recognized expert in Self-Sovereign or Decentralized Digital Identity, and a Co-Founder and Co-Producer of this event with Doc Searls and Phil Windley. Since its inception she has been the main Designer and Facilitator of IIW. The semi-annual event has been key to fostering innovation, collaboration and adoption of user-centric identity technologies.

During this conversation dedicated to the Internet Identity Workshop (IIW) with Kaliya “IdentityWoman” Young, we discuss:

  • What’s taking up most of Kaliya’s time nowadays between her role as the Ecosystem Director for the Covid-19 Credentials Initiative and leading the Interoperability Task Force of the Good Health Pass Initiative;
  • How the Digital ID Space has innovated and evolved through IIW through the past 15 years;
  • What to expect from this year’s first IIW;
  • How Verifiable Credential Tech can end the way ID Proofing is done today and drastically improve authentication and security techniques such as 2FA and security tokens;
  • How Health credentials have been approached from a governance and interoperability perspective;
  • How BBS+ is exciting for real interoperability;
  • The impact of culture on the adoption of Self-Sovereign Identity.

    • Again, listeners of this podcast who haven’t registered yet for IIW, or maybe are on the fence about registering, can get a 20% discount by applying this discount code → ‘SSIOrbit_XXXII_20’ to your purchase here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/internet-identity-workshop-iiwxxxii-32-2021a-tickets-131551119941?aff=ebdssbonlinesearch.
