#285 - Identiverse 2024: Danny de Vreeze from Thales OneWelcome

In this episode, hosts Jim McDonald and Jeff Steadman are live from Identiverse in Las Vegas, engaging in a lively conversation with Danny de Vreeze, VP of Identity and Access Management at Thales. They dive deep into the transformative potential of AI in identity management, discussing how conversational AI can revolutionize user interactions by enabling non-technical people to ask business questions and get comprehensible answers. Danny shares his extensive 25-year journey in the IAM field, from the early days of enterprise portals to the complexities of managing identities in today's cloud-based environments. The discussion also touches on the evolution of customer identity and access management (CIAM) and the importance of making access frictionless and secure.
