Annie joins Matthias to talk about the topic of Verified Digital Identity. They explore what these are, why they are becoming increasingly important and where they add new aspects to the concept of digital identity. A special focus is put on existing and emerging use cases, where verified digital identities can be beneficial to all types of real life entities in their day by day interaction.

Join our Analyst Mike Small and Paul Hampton, Product Manager at Thales Security as they talk about the importance of securing data in the cloud.

This podcast has already looked at the Zero Trust concept as a challenging architectural paradigm for security and an important component of modern and future-oriented security architectures from various angles. This time Christopher and Matthias focus on a phased project approach towards implementing Zero Trust in a well-paced, phased, "one-bite-at-a-time" manner.

The Zero Trust concept comes with the promise to adequately secure our modern, hybrid IT world at any time and any place. Manufacturers, consultants and even analysts agree as rarely as they do that this changed architectural paradigm is an important component of modern and future-oriented security architectures. Alexei and Matthias address the question why in practice only a few powerful zero trust architectures deliver on this promise. They try to answer the question what organizations need to consider in order to get off to a good start.

Martin Kuppinger and Danna Bethlehem, Director of Product Marketing at Thales discuss their perspectives on the interplay of Zero Trust and Identity and Access Management.

The PAM market continues to evolve and many organizations are adopting the DevOps paradigm where critical access and sensitive accounts are required in fast moving and agile environments. Paul Fisher meets Matthias for this episode and shares his research on PAM for DevOps. They talk about the challenges of this area of application, but also about the differences and similarities with "classic" PAM. And about the opportunities on a path towards a hybrid approach to PAM in today's organizations, in the midst of the Digital Transformation.

In this second of two episodes, Annie Bailey and Matthias Reinwarth look at use cases of emerging technologies in healthcare. The use of AI, and machine learning to facilitate self-diagnosis chatbots is just one of many fascinating areas of application that are discussed and analyzed.

John Tolbert has just taken a close look at the market for SOAR tools (Security Orchestration, Automation and Response) to prepare a Leadership Compass. This has just been published and this gives John and Matthias the opportunity to take a closer look at this market segment of security infrastructures.

In this first of two episodes, Annie Bailey and Matthias Reinwarth lay the foundations for the topic "Emerging Technologies in Healthcare". Beyond hype and half-knowledge, they look at the use of AI, machine learning, block chain, and modern digital identities for the comprehensive improvement of processes and systems in healthcare.

This analyst chat episode is the 50th and therefore a bit different. This time Matthias talks to two experienced analysts, Martin Kuppinger and Alexei Balaganski, about the ECSM, the European Cyber Security Month, which is to provide information and awareness on cyber security in October 2020. The particular aim they pursue is to go beyond awareness to arrive at specific measures that can benefit individuals and organizations alike.
