Static Identity is a Liability; Let’s Talk Continuous Identity

Most identity systems were built when your biggest threat was someone tailgating into the server room. Now we’ve got remote work, AI-generated phishing, and a terrifying amount of stale user records.

And yet, most systems still rely on a “user record” that lives in a database somewhere, updated occasionally, and treated as if it’s still accurate. (It’s probably not.)

That’s where Continuous Identity comes in.

Identity, in Motion

At Identiverse this June, Sean O’Dell and Andrew Cameron are leading a workshop that cuts straight to the point: we need identity systems that move. That respond. That listen.

Because right now, traditional architectures are over-collecting, over-retaining, and under-delivering. They assume the data is correct and current when it’s neither. That leads to poor decisions, compliance headaches, and increased risk.

It’s time to think differently about how identity flows through your systems.

From Periodic Polling to Shared Signals

Sean and Andrew will unpack how standards like CAEP (Continuous Access Evaluation Protocol), RISC (Risk & Incident Sharing and Coordination), and Shared Signals can move us from static checks to real-time decision-making.

These aren’t just buzzwords: They are active ingredients in a more resilient, event-driven model. One where changes in status (like leaving a company, losing a device, or rotating off an on-call schedule) don’t sit around waiting to be noticed. They trigger responses.

Better still, they can be shared across systems to reduce blind spots.

What’s Working, What’s Coming, What’s Worth Preparing For

This session isn’t about pitching a fantasy future. It’s about being honest:

• What can we actually do today?
• What’s realistic to prepare for now?
• And what’s still a bit aspirational?

Expect candid takes on:

• Designing for real-time decisions without rebuilding everything from scratch.
• What privileged access could look like in a signal-driven world.
• How to build trust across systems—without stockpiling more data.

Is This Workshop For You?

Identity architect tired of brittle user stores? You’ll want to compare notes with others attending.

Security lead who finds out about incidents after everyone else? You’ll want to learn more about how to get in front of the challenges.

Privacy professional trying to meet compliance goals without hoarding personal data? There are ways to make your jobs easier.

You don’t need to blow up your infrastructure overnight—but it’s probably time to stop treating identity like a static snapshot.

Join Sean and Andrew on Tuesday, 3 June at Identiverse, and see what it looks like to move identity into motion.
