Episode notes
Services Dominate Identity Spend
- A huge portion of identity work is manual services, not product automation, creating a trillion-dollar services market.
- Redblock aims to convert manual service labor into AI-driven software to cover the long tail of apps.
Credential-Based Attacks Are The New Norm
- Breaches keep happening despite tooling because attackers log in with stolen credentials, not by breaching firewalls.
- The urgent gap is visibility and governance for disconnected apps holding credentials and sensitive data.
Use A Last-Mile Carrier For Fulfillment
- Treat Redblock like a last-mile carrier between governance tools and individual apps to enable fulfillment.
- Use it to pick up triggers from your orchestrator and execute actions across disconnected applications.
