Governments Are Deploying AI In Resident Services. Is The Identity Infrastructure Ready?

State and local agencies are caught between two forces: residents who expect modern, seamless digital services, and AI-driven systems that are about to reshape how those services get delivered. The agencies that navigate both successfully will have one thing in common. They treated identity as a strategic foundation early, not an afterthought they cleaned up later. more →

The End Of The Selfie Era: Why Generative AI Demands Deterministic Identity

For the last decade, digital identity verification (IDV) has relied on a visual proxy: scan a physical driver's license, capture a video selfie, and hope the person in the scan and video match. It approximated the in-person handshake well enough, at a time when images were relatively trustworthy and alternatives didn't exist yet. more →

Disruption targets Tycoon 2FA, popular AiTM PhaaS

Tycoon 2FA operates as an AitM phishing kit. Its primary function is to harvest usernames, passwords, and Microsoft 365 and Gmail session cookies. Attackers use these cookies to circumvent multifactor authentication (MFA) access controls during subsequent authentication. That allows them to achieve full account takeover (ATO) and gain unauthorized access to a user's accounts, systems and cloud services-even those that have MFA as an additional security measure. more →
