CIAM related podcasts
Do you have to do dishes or laundry? Do you like learning about identity while you do so?
You’re in luck! Here are three identity related podcasts that can help educate you while your hands are soapy.
Identity Unlocked - This podcast focused on identity and standards for developers. In each episode a different standard or aspect of a standard is examined. The interviewer does a great job of breaking things down. Unfortunately it hasn’t had a new episode since 2022, but the existing seasons are great dives into important standards for CIAM such as SAML and OIDC. There’s also a look at more esoteric standards such as PAR RAR and JAR.
State of Identity - This podcast covers identity in general. If CIAM is your thing, you won’t want to listen to every episode, but it is an eye opening look at the breadth of the identity space. Recent episodes covered topics as diverse as verifiable credentials, age verification, cyberscurity, and onboarding of private fund investors.
The C-level Strategic Guide for CIAM investment - This is a marketing podcast with 5 episodes produced by Okta, but I include it because it is squarely focused on CIAM. It is aimed at C-level executives and speaks their language and is a great introduction to the business drivers for CIAM.
Bonus: here’s an episode of Screaming in the Cloud, Authentication Matters, where I talk about CIAM. The podcast is great if you are in the cloud ecosystem, but doesn’t usually focus on identity. But the host, Corey, is a hoot.
