New website so there’s been a bit of a delay on posts and now there’s lots of catching up to do! Back in late February, David Birch donned his Consult Hyperion hat for Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. One of the sessions he took part in was a fireside chat with Andrew Bud CBE, founder and CEO of IProov, at The Future of Mobile Summit entitled Identity – The Future of Identity and Authentication.

Some interesting discussion points were raised including:
💥 The role of identity and authentication in preventing fraud on people and providers
💥 Authentication beyond the device
💥 The rise of Verifiable Credentials and ISO 18013-5 mDLs – giving people greater control over their data and assuring their privacy, whilst being highly secure
Mobile World Congress is THE mobile technology ecosystem event of the year. It is the largest and most influential connectivity event in the world, hosted by GSMA in Barcelona, Spain.
