Riley Hughes, CEO of Trinsic, interviews Ankur Patel, Head of Product at Entra Verified ID at Microsoft.

Trinsic’s The Future of Identity podcast: Ankur Patel: Microsoft’s Decentralized Identity Product – Entra Verified ID

From the show notes:

Today’s guest is Ankur Patel, Head of Product at Entra Verified ID which is Microsoft’s decentralized identity product. We begin the conversation by reviewing Microsoft’s storied history of identity initiatives, and why one of the world’s most valuable companies made decentralized identity one of their major focus areas.

We dive into the recent announcement about verifiable credentials on LinkedIn, which allows companies to issue employment credentials, so LinkedIn members can truly prove they actually work at the organization listed on their LinkedIn profile.

Ankur is one of the pioneers in decentralized identity and his perspective on why enterprises are adopting decentralized identity is fascinating.
