Attendee Info & Inquiries
Pieter Kasselman is an Identity Enthusiast, focused on standards based identity products. Pieter has over 25 years' experience as a technologist and engineer, working on bringing new technologies and business models to market. Pieter's first encounter with identity was his final year project which used neural networks to identify users based on typing patterns. Since then he worked in a number of roles as an information security analyst, software engineer and program manager in industries that include finance, software, silicon and cloud. His diverse background gives him a unique perspective of the importance of identity and the role of identity standards as both a business enabler and the first line of defence for organizations. Pieter recently joined SPIRL where he is focused on developing standards, technologies and products that allow non-human identities, especially workload identities, to be governed to a least privilege profile. Pieter is active in identity standards development and chairs the Workload Identity in Multi-System Environments (WIMSE) working group in the IETF.
