Inclusive identity: are we doing enough? With Tricerion, Women in Identity and FinClusive – Podcast episode 67

Episode 67 explores inclusive identity. Making identity solutions inclusive for everyone wanting (or needing) to use them is a topic that's coming more and more to the forefront of the identity industry. From logging into apps, to accessing essential services; to how barriers to organisation identity is impacting individuals - in this episode, we speak to three guests from the identity industry on what they're doing to help solve these issues. Schehrezade Davidson is the CEO of Tricerion Limited, a company that owns novel patented mutual authentication software using image passwords. Find Schehrezade on LinkedIn.

"If the onus is on the individual to authenticate themselves, those in the industry need to make it truly inclusive with alternative ways, depending on a customer’s needs." Dr Sarah Walton is a digital consultant, author, coach and public speaker. She founded Counterpoint in 2003 to support organisations become digital, innovate and grow.

"From a macroeconomic perspective, it’s important to note that identity challenges are often seen as just at the individual level, but these at the institutional or entity level are equally important."
