    Why Mobile IDs Are Still Hard to Use, with IDScan.net COO Jillian Kossman

    Mobile driver's licenses are gaining momentum across the US, but turning digital credentials into something people can actually use in everyday life remains a major challenge. In this episode of the ID Talk podcast, hosts Alex Perala and Tony Bitzionis speak with Jillian Kossman, COO of IDScan.net, about the fragmented mobile ID landscape, the barriers facing businesses that want to accept digital credentials, and why Louisiana has emerged as an interesting case study in mDL adoption. The conversation also explores the changing identity fraud landscape, including how criminals can exploit unfamiliarity with mobile IDs, the growing role of AI and deepfakes, and IDScan.net's observations on rising fraud in cargo and logistics, financial services, and education. Kossman explains how fake IDs are being used to steal entire truckloads of goods and how "ghost student" schemes target financial aid programs using stolen or synthetic identities. Finally, Kossman discusses one of the identity industry's persistent communications challenges: helping consumers understand why identity verification is necessary in the first place. As fraud tools become more accessible and sophisticated, she argues that stronger verification is increasingly essential to protecting consumers from impersonation and identity theft.

    Why Every Organization Needs an AI Governance Plan, with Entrust's Tony Ball

    Recorded on-site at Identity Week Europe, Entrust CEO Tony Ball joins ID Talk to discuss why the rise of AI agents is creating a new identity challenge for enterprises. Ball argues that organizations must think beyond authenticating people and begin establishing identities, permissions, governance and human oversight for autonomous agents.  He also explains why biometrics will become increasingly important as a trust layer, why fraud has become an industrial-scale business, and how companies can prepare for an agent-driven future without sacrificing security.

    Preparing for the Mythos Era with Aware's Brian Krause

    Recorded on-site at Identity Week Europe 2026 in Amsterdam, this episode of ID Talk features Aware Chief Revenue Officer Brian Krause for a wide-ranging conversation on how AI is reshaping the identity security landscape. As generative AI enables fraudsters to operate at unprecedented speed and scale, Krause argues that the industry's focus must shift beyond one-time identity verification toward continuous trust, agile defences, and what Aware calls "orchestration" – the ability to intelligently deploy and adapt biometric technologies across the entire customer journey. Krause also discusses why enterprises should prepare for a new era of AI-powered attacks, the growing importance of proving "humanhood" through passive liveness detection, and why he believes passwords – not biometrics – are the real source of friction in digital identity. He also shares Aware's vision for bringing cloud-style resilience to biometric security, enabling organizations to rapidly respond as fraud tactics continue to evolve.

    Identity Week Europe: Why Andrew Bud Believes Liveness Is Becoming Critical Infrastructure for AI

    Recorded on-site at Identity Week Europe in Amsterdam, ID Talk sits down with iProov founder and CEO Andrew Bud to discuss the evolving role of digital identity in an era increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. Bud explains why he believes proof of human presence will become foundational to the future of online trust, as AI agents take on greater responsibility for accessing services, acting on behalf of users, and making decisions in the digital world. The conversation also explores the personal story behind iProov's founding, including a fraud crisis in the mobile payments industry that convinced Bud the internet needed a better way to verify genuine human presence. He discusses the company's approach to liveness assurance, the accelerating threat posed by deepfakes and AI-enabled fraud, and why organizations across government, financial services, healthcare, and enterprise security need to rethink how they establish trust online before the next wave of attacks arrives.

    'This Is the Worst I've Ever Seen': ITRC CEO Eva Velasquez On the State of Identity Fraud

    On this episode of ID Talk, hosts Alex Perala and Tony Bitzionis sit down with Eva Velasquez to discuss the rapidly evolving world of identity theft, scams, cybercrime, and digital identity. Drawing on decades of experience investigating economic crime and supporting victims, Velasquez explains why identity fraud has become more personal, more scalable, and more difficult to contain in the digital era. The conversation explores how the pandemic accelerated the shift toward digital-only transactions, why fraudsters now operate within a sophisticated “fraud ecosystem,” and how AI is simultaneously empowering criminals and becoming essential to fighting them. The episode also examines the growing role of passkeys, biometrics, and digital identity systems in securing online interactions, alongside the public trust and transparency challenges surrounding those technologies. Velasquez argues that there is no “silver bullet” solution to identity crime, and calls for a more holistic approach that treats scams, fraud, cybersecurity, and identity misuse as interconnected problems rather than isolated threats. Along the way, the discussion touches on organized cybercrime, deepfake technology, consumer education, and why “identity is deeply personal” in an increasingly digital world.

    Delinea's Chris Kelly on Shadow AI and the New Identity Security Crisis

    This week on ID Talk, Alex Perala and Tony Bitzionis speak with Chris Kelly, president of Delinea, about the company’s latest research into AI-driven identity security risks. The conversation explores how enterprises are struggling to govern the growing number of nonhuman identities created by AI agents, automation pipelines, service accounts and machine credentials, even as organizations express confidence in their AI readiness. Kelly explains why “prepared” and “governed” are not the same thing in cybersecurity, discusses the rise of “shadow AI” inside enterprise environments, and outlines why legacy identity management systems are increasingly strained by the speed and scale of AI adoption.  The episode also examines standing access risks, least-permissive autonomy, real-time identity visibility, and what CISOs should prioritize as AI systems become deeply embedded in enterprise operations.

    How Analysts Use AI to Identify Trafficking Networks

    On the latest episode of ID Talk, DeliverFund Director of Technology Ian Caltabiano joins the podcast alongside Sam Cilento of Lakota Software Solutions to discuss how identity technology and AI tools are being used to support investigations into human trafficking and online exploitation.  Caltabiano explains how DeliverFund works with law enforcement agencies to analyze massive volumes of publicly available online advertising data, identify trafficking networks, and help investigators connect fragmented digital identities across jurisdictions. The conversation also explores the growing role of biometric and video-analysis tools in reducing investigative workloads and improving analyst well-being.  Cilento discusses Lakota’s “Fierce” platform, which automatically extracts and clusters faces from video evidence, while Caltabiano reflects on the broader challenge of building technology that produces meaningful real-world outcomes for investigators rather than simply adding more tools to already overloaded workflows.
