Not original with me… Authentication is just part of the Authorization policy. Historically it has been easier to authenticate a user first as it is a requirement in most of the AuthZ policies. Instead of one big AuthN ceremony what we need are micro-ceremonies as part of AuthZ

What did strike me this #iiw is the term micro-ceremonies. We need more focus on the user experience and how to optimize that and not just focus on the technical aspects.

Not sure what the scam here is but I’ve gotten the exact (word for word) message from two different “people” supposedly interested in purchasing my photographic work:-)

Dilemma: wait in the pre-check line so I don’t have to take off my shoes and pull out my electronics or go to normal security and probably breeze through:-)

I've been invited to be on a few more podcasts to talk about my new book Learning Digital Identity from O'Reilly Media. That's one of the perks of writing a book. People like to talk about it. I always enjoy talking about identity and especially how it's so vital to the quality of our lives in the digital world, so I'm grateful these groups found time to speak with me. windley.com/archives/2023/09…
