Can We Really Have Zero Trust with a Federated Identity Architecture? [Live]

‍

Everyone says they’re doing Zero Trust, but here’s an uncomfortable question:

‍

Can we really have Zero Trust with a federated identity architecture?

‍

Many organizations still rely on perimeter-based trust models (trusted internal networks, trusted systems, and trusted assumptions) even while pursuing Zero Trust.

‍

That’s why we’re bringing Justin Richer (MongoDB) for a live discussion with Richard Esplin (Dock Labs) and Agne Caunt (Dock Labs) about whether traditional perimeter-based approaches are fundamentally incompatible with Zero Trust and how to architect trust into a modern identity system.

‍

We’ll get into questions like:

‍

• Is today’s identity stack actually built for Zero Trust?
• How do OAuth and Verifiable Credentials fit together and where do they clash?
• What happens when the “user” isn’t a person anymore, but a service or workload?
• How should our architecture change to allow for trusted AI agents?
• Why are technologies like SPIFFE and SPIRE suddenly becoming important?

‍

We’ll also reserve time for live audience Q&A, so bring your toughest questions.

‍

If you work in IAM, cybersecurity, identity architecture, or digital identity strategy, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
