Resilient Cyber S3E23: Richard Bird - Digital Identity & API Security
- Looking at your background, you've held a lot of Identity-centric roles and positions in the industry. How do you think Identity and associated security is evolving with the continued adoption of Cloud?
- Identity is obviously at the core of the conversation around Zero Trust, what do you think some of the fundamental things organizations get wrong when it comes IAM at-scale?
- You recently made the pivot from roles with a strong Identity focus to API and API Security. What drove you to make that shift?
- What do you think some of the most interesting challenges are in the current API Security landscape?
- I noticed you also have an Army background. It is very common to see veterans make their way into Cybersecurity. Why do you think that is, and there are any lessons from the Army you feel have benefited you in your Cyber career?
