Secure every identity moment with OneSpan at Authenticate 2025

Ashish Jain​
CTO, OneSpan

Session: Keynote: Beyond Authentication: The Path to Digital Trust
Date/Time: October 15 @ 3:00 PM
Location: Main stage, Sol 1-3

Description:

Trust is the foundation of every digital interaction. We’ve made real progress on authentication—passkeys are finally breaking the password’s chokehold, giving us both stronger security and better usability. But authentication alone doesn’t equal trust. In an era of AI-driven attacks and increasingly sophisticated fraud, digital trust requires more pillars: identity verification to know who you’re dealing with, and fraud detection to ensure they’re acting with good intent. Only when authentication, verification, and fraud prevention work together can we deliver safe, seamless digital experiences.

In this keynote, we’ll recap the progress so far and highlight where more work is needed to truly build the full trust stack.

How Cybersecurity Threats and Regulation Shaped Authentication Technology in 3 Decades: This session examines crucial properties of modern authentication technology — Replay Resistance, Dynamic Linking, WYSIWYS, Phishing Resistance, and Verifier Compromise Resistance — tracing their evolution over three decades. It analyzes how cybersecurity threats and regulations have shaped these properties, distinguishing between Customer Authentication and Workforce Authentication . The session evaluates authentication technologies like OTP, QR-based OTP, FIDO2, and biometrics against these properties, determining their suitability for each context. Finally, the session addresses emerging fraud schemes, such as Authorized Push Payment fraud, and upcoming regulations, such as PSD3/PSR in Europe, discussing their impact on authentication technology.
