In the latest video in our Intelligent Authentication series, we cover how access to that data helps provide that “just right” experience for your customers.

What is OAuth2? It can seem quite complicated, but it doesn’t have to be. Before OAuth2, when you needed to give software services access to your account, you had to give that service your username and password. This meant there was no way to tell whether it was you or the agent accessing your data as a third party doing so on your behalf. That agent had access to everything in that account and you’d have to change the account password when you decided to cancel that service.

In this Hot Topics episode, Chief Innovation Officer at DBS Bank, Neal Cross, discusses the IoT opportunity his company is pursuing: utilizing IoT products to improve relationships with their clients.

Do you want to learn the skills required for the next generation of digital identity? If so, ForgeRock University has just refreshed its entire curriculum - starting with a series of core concepts classes that teach you all the new features of the ForgeRock Identity Platform. The curriculum then progresses to a new series of ‘deep dive’ classes; the first two will be on Agents and Advanced IDM connector configuration. The curriculum then progresses on to the advanced developer classes for ForgeRock Access Management and ForgeRock Identity Gateway.

In this two-part series, I look at the deluge of personal data, the rising tide of global regulation and where the U.S. must drop its proverbial data policy anchor to build long-term customer trust.

People are constantly on the move; changing networks, devices, time zones, even several times per day. Mobility shouldn't keep us from being productive, right?
