CSIO Webinar - Digital Identity and Credentials
Online Webinar
Cosanna Preston-Idedia
Digital identity and credentials are a secure means to build trust online. They do this by proving the identity of an organization or person and/or providing information about an organization or person. The lack of formal and meaningful digital identity credentials increases the vulnerability of individuals and organizations to fraud and identity theft, and it impedes our ability to safely and successfully deliver on digital transformation goals across the private and public sectors. In this webinar, you’ll learn from Cosanna Preston-Idedia at DTLab about: Why you need to improve trust in your digital interactions/transactions What digital credentials are, how to use them and how they apply to the insurance industry Key considerations when using digital credentials

We’ll unpick the schools of thought around consumer-provided data and ask: are we on track with where we need to be with our data maturity to service Open Banking well? Will the Bank Act be modernised as a result of the roll-out of Open Banking? When can we see digital ID and Open Banking regulations working collaboratively?
