From RSA Finalist to Category Creator: Rethinking Identity at Scale
from CyberBytes: The Podcast Hosted by Powered by Aspiron Search
In this episode, we sit down with Eran Haggiag, CEO and Founder of RSA Sandbox finalist Glide Identity, to explore why the future of identity needs a complete rethink.Fresh from making the Sandbox finalists for RSAC 2026, Eran shares the story behind Glide Identity, a company taking a radically different approach to authentication. Instead of adding to the crowded IAM and NHI space, Glide is building a new trust layer using something that already exists in the hands of billions: the SIM card.We dive into: • Why passwords, OTPs, and even passkeys are no longer enough in the age of AI-driven fraud • How voice cloning, agent swarms, and deepfakes are reshaping the threat landscape • The untapped potential of telco infrastructure as a global identity backbone • What it really takes to build and scale with telecom giants • And how AI is transforming not just security, but how companies themselves are built and operatedEran also shares Glide’s bold vision to enable identity for a billion users, and why “flow-state” companies powered by AI agents could redefine how startups scale.If you care about the future of cybersecurity, digital trust, and how identity will work in an AI-first world, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.Eran's LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/eran-haggiag/Glide Identity - https://www.linkedin.com/company/glide-identity/Oliver's LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliverlegg/Aspiron Search - https://www.linkedin.com/company/aspiron-search/
