Speaking Session

Every digital transaction has an identity problem — and most industries haven't noticed yet

From buying a home to onboarding a new hire to authorizing an AI agent to act on your behalf, the gap between digital convenience and identity certainty is widening fast. In this session, Kurt Ernst, Principal Product Manager for Risk and Fraud at Proof, traces the rise of the Identity Authorization Network across industries and government, exposes what AI-generated deepfakes and synthetic identity fraud look like in the wild, and makes the case that Digital ID isn't a compliance feature — it's the trust infrastructure the entire digital economy is being built on top of, whether we've planned for it or not. Leave with a cross-sector framework you can apply immediately and a clearer view of where identity risk is headed next.
