Episode Description
Identity is the root cause of over 70% of all security incidents, yet many organizations still rely on fundamentally flawed authentication methods. In this episode, Jasson Casey, CEO and co-founder of Beyond Identity, explains why even common forms of MFA are insufficient and why any system that relies on a "secret moving" is vulnerable to attack.
The conversation dives deep into the architectural shift needed to truly secure identity: moving from probabilistic tools to deterministic proof. Jasson breaks down how to leverage the hardware-backed secure enclaves (like TPMs and the Secure Enclave) that already exist in our devices to create un-phishable, device-bound credentials that can't be stolen or copied.
We also explore how this approach provides a necessary defense against the next wave of AI-enabled threats, including deepfakes and hyper-realistic social engineering attacks that will make it nearly impossible for humans to spot the difference.
