“Designing Secure Authentication Solution – What about me (the user)?” and “Breach Fatigue: An opportunity”
Speaker: Manish Gupta and Bar Lockwood
Thursday, May 16, 2019, 6:30 PM
Event Summary
Manish’s talk is about the importance of considering the end user experience when designing Secure Authentication Solutions. Often Security professionals get over-indexed on designing a secure solution and don’t envision impacts that it will have to end users. During this talk, based on my years of experience in Identity and Access Management space I will share real-life examples of how security focused design decision led to adverse user impacts and incessant help desk calls.
In addition, Bar Lockwood will explore breach fatigue. A recent Harris Poll reported that only 20 percent of respondents said they “completely trust” organizations they interact with to maintain the privacy of their data. Customers don’t believe we can keep their data safe. Regardless of the penalty implications of GDPR and CCPA, most companies know they are right–some having shockingly proven them so with multiple recent data breaches.
