Maxine Most, founder and CEO of Acuity Market Intelligence and creator of the Deepfake Summit, returns to ID Talk for a preview of the upcoming September 1 event in Arlington, Virginia. She joins hosts Alex Perala and Tony Bitzionis to discuss the thinking behind the Summit, its collaborative format, and an agenda bringing together experts from government, technology, fraud, privacy, policy, and other fields to examine the rapidly evolving challenges posed by deepfakes, synthetic identity, agentic AI, and other emerging attack vectors.The conversation also explores some of the major themes that will shape the Summit, including Max’s concept of “resilient trust,” the growing difficulty of establishing authenticity in an AI-driven environment, and the way automation is allowing fraud to operate at unprecedented scale. Max also discusses why these challenges can’t be addressed by individual technologies or isolated fraud teams, and why building effective trust infrastructure will require much greater collaboration across industries, institutions, and areas of expertise.

In this episode of the ID Talk podcast, Alex Perala and Tony Bitzionis speak with Cameron D’Ambrosi about the growing impact of AI agents on digital identity, security, and online trust.Cameron is FaceTec’s Head of Strategic Partnerships for North America and the European Union. His career has spanned financial regulation, KYC and AML consulting, and digital identity strategy, including his time as a founding member of Liminal and host of more than 350 episodes of the State of Identity podcast.Drawing on that experience, Cameron discusses why AI agents are creating new urgency around long-standing identity challenges. The conversation covers the emerging concept of Know Your Agent, the complicated questions of ownership and authorization that arise when agents act on behalf of people and businesses, and the risks of giving autonomous systems broad or standing permissions. The group also explores AI impersonation, zero-trust security, just-in-time access, agentic commerce, and the role biometric liveness detection could play in confirming that a real human is behind a high-risk transaction.

Mobile driver's licenses are gaining momentum across the US, but turning digital credentials into something people can actually use in everyday life remains a major challenge. In this episode of the ID Talk podcast, hosts Alex Perala and Tony Bitzionis speak with Jillian Kossman, COO of IDScan.net, about the fragmented mobile ID landscape, the barriers facing businesses that want to accept digital credentials, and why Louisiana has emerged as an interesting case study in mDL adoption.The conversation also explores the changing identity fraud landscape, including how criminals can exploit unfamiliarity with mobile IDs, the growing role of AI and deepfakes, and IDScan.net's observations on rising fraud in cargo and logistics, financial services, and education. Kossman explains how fake IDs are being used to steal entire truckloads of goods and how "ghost student" schemes target financial aid programs using stolen or synthetic identities.Finally, Kossman discusses one of the identity industry's persistent communications challenges: helping consumers understand why identity verification is necessary in the first place. As fraud tools become more accessible and sophisticated, she argues that stronger verification is increasingly essential to protecting consumers from impersonation and identity theft.

Recorded on-site at Identity Week Europe 2026 in Amsterdam, this episode of ID Talk features Aware Chief Revenue Officer Brian Krause for a wide-ranging conversation on how AI is reshaping the identity security landscape. As generative AI enables fraudsters to operate at unprecedented speed and scale, Krause argues that the industry's focus must shift beyond one-time identity verification toward continuous trust, agile defences, and what Aware calls "orchestration" – the ability to intelligently deploy and adapt biometric technologies across the entire customer journey.Krause also discusses why enterprises should prepare for a new era of AI-powered attacks, the growing importance of proving "humanhood" through passive liveness detection, and why he believes passwords – not biometrics – are the real source of friction in digital identity. He also shares Aware's vision for bringing cloud-style resilience to biometric security, enabling organizations to rapidly respond as fraud tactics continue to evolve.

On this episode of ID Talk, hosts Alex Perala and Tony Bitzionis sit down with Eva Velasquez to discuss the rapidly evolving world of identity theft, scams, cybercrime, and digital identity. Drawing on decades of experience investigating economic crime and supporting victims, Velasquez explains why identity fraud has become more personal, more scalable, and more difficult to contain in the digital era. The conversation explores how the pandemic accelerated the shift toward digital-only transactions, why fraudsters now operate within a sophisticated “fraud ecosystem,” and how AI is simultaneously empowering criminals and becoming essential to fighting them.The episode also examines the growing role of passkeys, biometrics, and digital identity systems in securing online interactions, alongside the public trust and transparency challenges surrounding those technologies. Velasquez argues that there is no “silver bullet” solution to identity crime, and calls for a more holistic approach that treats scams, fraud, cybersecurity, and identity misuse as interconnected problems rather than isolated threats. Along the way, the discussion touches on organized cybercrime, deepfake technology, consumer education, and why “identity is deeply personal” in an increasingly digital world.

 This week on ID Talk, Alex Perala and Tony Bitzionis speak with Chris Kelly, president of Delinea, about the company’s latest research into AI-driven identity security risks. The conversation explores how enterprises are struggling to govern the growing number of nonhuman identities created by AI agents, automation pipelines, service accounts and machine credentials, even as organizations express confidence in their AI readiness.Kelly explains why “prepared” and “governed” are not the same thing in cybersecurity, discusses the rise of “shadow AI” inside enterprise environments, and outlines why legacy identity management systems are increasingly strained by the speed and scale of AI adoption. The episode also examines standing access risks, least-permissive autonomy, real-time identity visibility, and what CISOs should prioritize as AI systems become deeply embedded in enterprise operations.

On this episode of the ID Talk podcast, Wicket COO Jeff Boehm joins Alex Perala, Tony Bitzionis, and Dave Barclay to talk about how facial authentication is transforming the fan experience at stadiums and live events across the country. Jeff traces Wicket’s origins back to an early partnership with the Cleveland Browns during the height of COVID, when the team needed a safer, faster way to get fans back through the gates, and explains how the company has since grown to nearly a hundred customers across professional sports leagues, conferences, and live events worldwide.The conversation covers how Wicket’s opt-in enrollment process works, what it takes to get fans to adopt new technology, and the critical distinction between facial authentication and facial recognition surveillance. Jeff also discusses the role that legal teams play as gatekeepers for new partnerships, Wicket’s integrations with ticketing and point-of-sale systems, and why the company is deliberately staying focused on sports and live events rather than chasing every possible use case.
