Numeracle's Founder & CEO, Rebekah Johnson, will be speaking at ITW 2023 on May 16 at 1:10pm in a Fireside Chat on Mobile Identity - Who, Why and Where? Ensuring people and businesses are who they say they are is vital to ensuring trust in messaging. Vital to this is mobile identity. This session will discuss:
- Why we need to ensure identity to restore trust, drawing on examples such as India's messaging ecosystem
- Who should be responsible for verifying identity? Operators, aggregators or an independent 3rd party?
- Where should identity data be held, and is there a place for self-sovereign identity and blockchain technologies?
