What Biometric Binding Is and Why It Is Critical to Verifying Your Digital ID, with Jay Meier

Summary

FaceTec's Jay Meier returns to discuss the importance of biometric binding when it comes to identity verification. Why is that so important? The answer has to do with Jay's idea of "the PKI fallacy", which he discussed on his previous appearance on the ID Talk podcast. The key question, from Jay's perspective, is to figure out how to make sure that someone is truly linked to their identity credential, and not just to the device housing it. It's a high-concept discussion, and one well worth grappling with, given its relevance to some of the biggest questions around identity assurance. And with his influential positions at not only FaceTec but also the Kantara Initiative and the Identity Theft Resource Center, Jay is a bona fide expert.
