As summer approaches, millions of people are preparing to hit the skies, roads and seas. Government agencies around the globe are bracing for this influx, and many are requiring digital travel authorizations to pre-screen travelers. But as more travelers cross international borders, they often face long, painful wait times and customs processes. In this podcast episode, we delve into the intersection of digital ID security and border protection, and how nations can ensure a seamless experience for travelers while keeping global journeys secure.
More from The Identity Thread by Entrust
As AI agents begin participating in financial transactions, banks face new challenges around identity, trust, consent, and accountability. In this episode, Mayank Somaiya of Backbase and Andy Cease of Entrust explore what it will take to build secure, trusted frameworks for the future of agentic banking.
Digital identity has come a long way from the early days of single sign-on, but the next era may be even more complex. As AI agents begin to take actions on behalf of humans, organizations need to rethink identity not only as access control, but as the foundation for trust, consent, privacy, delegation, and accountability. In this episode, Eve Maler and Adam Dimopoulos explore how identity has evolved and where it’s headed as digital interactions become increasingly automated, agentic, and relationship-driven.
Every technology shift needs infrastructure to catch up to the hype, and agentic AI is no exception. In this episode, Sathvik "Sath" Krishnamurthy, Founder and Managing Partner of Security Leadership Capital, unpacks what it actually takes to secure autonomous, non-deterministic agents at scale. From the near-limitless attack surface these systems create, to why trust is becoming a new control plane, Sath lays out how CISOs can separate real solutions from AI-washed marketing, and what questions leaders should be asking before they move agentic projects from experimentation into production.
Organizations are facing a new kind of security challenge: one defined by compressed timelines, emerging risks, expanding trust boundaries, and competing priorities. That urgency is only increasing. Recent White House Executive Orders make clear that quantum isn’t a distant concern: the U.S. is accelerating quantum innovation while setting firm timelines to transition critical systems to post-quantum cryptography. In this episode, leaders from IBM, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and Entrust cut through the hype to focus on what matters now: where to prioritize, how to balance immediate risks with long-term transformation, and what it takes to prepare for a future where machines act autonomously and cryptographic trust must continuously evolve.
In this episode, Hrant Gharibyan, CEO and Co-founder of BlueQubit, and Michael Klieman, Global VP of Product at Entrust, explore what it really takes to build a quantum computer, how AI is compressing the timeline, and why organizations must rethink trust, identity, and post-quantum cryptography now. Because as AI accelerates, so does the need for quantum-safe foundations.
