DESCRIPTION
Karl Martin, Bionym How new advances in persistent trusted identity are opening up a world of applications beyond security and into the Internet of Things, to enable hyper-personlized user experiences in addition to frictionless, persistent identity verification for security purposes.

Consumer Authentication Today
Things You Know - Passwords - PINs - Passphrases - Inane security
questions
Things You Have - Keys - Cards - Electronic tokens
Who you are - Fingerprint - Face - Voice - Iris
Thank You

Biometrics are the Silver Bullet?
The security world has been looking to biometrics to solve its security vs. convenience problem
But, fundamental technological limitations are quickly
reached
The problem is further exacerbated by fickle consumers and uncontrolled operating environments
Thank You
4
Reframing the Problem
We cannot completely eliminate the friction associated with fundamental human authentication processes
The problem lies not just in the friction, but in the frequency:
burden = friction x frequency
How can we instead reduce the frequency?
Thank You
5
Changing the Authentication Paradigm
The fundamental problem is now with the forced synchronicity: authentication at the point of transaction
How can we decouple action required for authentication
from the transaction that uses it?
Redesign the system to achieve asynchronicity
Thank You
6
Seamless, persistent sensing
Wearable Technology – Distilled
Low power, wireless communication
Fitness and health?
Asynchronicity of: signals – insight – action
Thank You
The Redesigned Authentication System
Establish a high level of trust using multiple factors
Leverage persistent sensing to maintain that trust without further user interaction
Use a trusted device to seamlessly serve credentials
without requiring any user interaction
Thank You

Identity Is Now Easy – So Now What?
Authentication is not just a security problem, it’s a general identity problem
By making identity easy, the scope of identity-focused
applications significantly broadens
Smart devices have a new context in which to operate
Thank You

New Context for Internet of Things
The Internet of Things is about persistent connectivity and sensing
Sensing can provide situational context to make smart
things smarter
But, where user interaction is involved, identity is the ultimate context
Thank You

Privacy Must Be At the Forefront
Privacy is not about secrecy: Privacy = Control
By decoupling human action from authentication, greater
trust us placed upon the system
Privacy by Design (www.privacybydesign.ca)
Thank You

The Context for Internet of Things
Identity has been the missing context for IoT devices
The prospect is profound: if every device, environment, and service provider knew the identities of those nearby, how
would they behave differently
We are entering the era of hyper-personalization
Thank You
