State of digital identity - an underestimated risk - Perspective from France and Germany
Our digital identity is everywhere — in our online accounts, banking credentials, professional profiles, and daily interactions. Yet as our lives increasingly move online, the value of this identity also attracts malicious actors, increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks, and systemic risks that are too often underestimated. Protecting your digital identity is no longer a technical matter reserved for experts: it has become an essential skill for everyone.
What to expect from this session?
This session will guide you through the fundamentals of digital identity and the risks that come with it, before providing a clear overview of today's most pressing threats and the technological solutions designed to counter them. We will close by exploring concrete opportunities and best practices to help you take control of and make the most of your digital identity.
Who should attend?
The event targets all members and friends: corporate executives as well as developers, designers, startups, students, and anyone interested in future technologies. It is especially relevant for users as well as for businesses and service providers.
