ID Talk Podcast: Assessing Identity and Assuring Trust with Kuma’s Michael Magrath and Mark Difraia

Recorded live at Identiverse 2022— FindBiometrics’ Doug OGorden interviews Mark Difraia, Executive Vice President at Kuma, and Michael Magrath, Managing Director of the firm’s Digital Identity Practice.

Kuma is a Kantara Initiative approved Accredited Assessor for the organizations’ trust stamp for NIST’s 800-63-3 digital identity guidelines. Magrath and Difraia breakdown why that framework is so important, and how the kind of identity assurance their company evaluates is seeing growing demand in the healthcare market. They expand on Kuma’s privacy practice and the importance of participating in industry education initiatives, before looking to the near future as we prepare for the next draft of NIST’s key identity assurance framework.

It’s a fascinating conversation about an increasingly crucial branch of our industry.
