The document discusses how identity management and relationships with customers have evolved and need to continue evolving. Historically, relationships were modeled as data models of entities and attributes. However, customers now expect immediacy, honesty, trust, conversations, and intimacy in relationships. As attributes become more multi-valued, verifiable, and change over time from various sources, identity systems must understand how each interaction affects relationships. Both individual data points and how points change relationships over time must be considered.

managed relationships?

7. An entity-relationship model is a systematic way of
describing and defining a business process. The
process is modeled as components (entities) that are
linked with each other by relationships that express the
dependencies and requirements between them

Who has access to what.
as greg said, getting the right access to the right people at the right time
Let’s inject one simple word
All of a sudden, this is changes the basics of what we’re doing. This becomes how are we connected to people, and how does identity inform that connection.
I want to talk about today:
how Identity can help connect us to our customer
businesses that do this successfully can be disruptive forces in their marketplace
Our Identity Systems have traditionally thought in terms of hierarchy
in Relationship Management systems
we have traditionally thought “relationally”
…this sounds pretty good. The word relationship is actually in there
but that, in fact, is a red-herring
Relationships need to be something more than a foreign key in a database
We’ll be back in ten minutes
Your call is important to us – we’ll be available in 8 minutes.
Suggestion Boxes – is there a better manifestation of a 1 way conversation. It’s LOCKED!
We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.
No shirt no shoes no service
this is the new reality.
Customers have an amazing amount of choice today
and it is very easy to exercise that choice
let’s look at today’s customer
Your competitor is a click away
but they will reward great service with loyalty
We walk around with extremely powerful devices in our pocket. Power to connect us to not only networks, but to the people around us
and that power can be directly applied to shape your brand. Both positively and negatively.
a relationship on fairly equal terms
call tree
open honest exchange of information
that honest needs to build trust
they don’t want to be talked to, or at. The want a conversation
expecting conversations them to be intimate
I mean they they’re expecting you to know and understand their needs
These interactions have to be informed by identity
let’s see what this historically did to our customers
The Mayday button.
Customer services can introspect and collaborate
A targeted response time of 15 seconds
human face.
And it’s built directly into the product. - no searching for 800 numbers - conversation in the product
in this new age we must
listen
respond
nest made thermostats something people want. wait – think about that. a thermostat that people want
beyond aesthetics, this is a device that understands you and your behavior
3 Billion dollar exit.
Tesla.
a car startup? that sounds like a bad idea.
Entrenched market - high barriers to entry
industry you don’t know who is driving your car.
No dealers.
#1 luxury car
the quitessential disruptor.
if the business that can disrupt almost every market they enter
is biometric identity into the middle of the key platform that enables that disruption.
something is going on
all of these companies build superior products
key ingredient is really knowing the customer
Taxi of tomorrow. This will remove 5 square acres of space
But they’re focusing on the wrong part of the equation
Let’s talk about Uber
Generally paraphrased as “Taxi’s that don’t suck”
But what they’ve really built is a general purpose brokering system
For brokering relationships and transactions that are informed by identity
Result: massive disruption in the taxi business, and eventual dismantling of a regulations
Uber has created a fairly distruptive experience.
And it’s one that’s fundamentally informed by Identity
This begins when a driver starts the app and is authenticated.
The system is actively managing a relationship.
I'm picked up,
data I'm generating flows back into the system
physics of attributes are changing - they’re constantly updating
this informs risk engines, demand, etc -
this fuels relationships in their ecosystem
At the end of it commerce is streamlined - the driver knew our credit worthiness
relationship was ephemeral
but knowledge of it is retained
we rate each other
the identity of the users is updated in the system to inform future interactions
And of course, lots of these are happening in parallel all the time
who looses?
the old model - didn’t retain any knowledge
who looses?
the old model - didn’t retain any knowledge
THE new model
Not all going to disrupt entire markets
But we can use identity to disrupt and evolve
Insurance is basically a big-data business.
The terms of the relationship are dictated by probability and large numbers.
But by plugging in this device, and learning who I actually am, Identity can inform that.
let’s talk about attributes. Location is an interesting one
LDAP is a good starting point
here we see Babs Jensen
any old LDAP folks?
here we see Babs can have a single address
SCIM –
we make some forward progress.
You can have more than one address.
its Typed.
you even can designate a primary
Here’s where location has evolved
These things we’re carrying around with us
change the nature of this attribute entirely.
I asked brian where he was headed, but I know longer need to ask.
each of these attributes are now changing rapidly.
You’re likely not going to update the geo-code of a user in a read-optimzed directory service
and if you do, you loose historical context
our old mechanisms of customer service we’re pretty straightforward
today we’re dealing with multi-channel
we have a pretty good handle on these
because they look like standard identity problem
check-ins at your buiness
8 Trillion likes and shares, just on facebook every year
every interaction with your point of sales systems, tells you more about your customer
iBeacons are providing automated opt-in checkin
lightbulbs which focus the ibeacon to particular merchandizing
they expect recognition
recognize them across as people
no a number or blue tooth id
must be informed by identity
those are just the interactions we’re creating on our own.
clicking, checking in, liking.
I don’t even think there is a verb for setting of a beacon and analyzing light sources
minions as promised
what about the devices
not just 1….
25B according to Gartner.
50B according to Cisco.
I guess we know who has more to gain
in any case –
we can agree there will be a lot
car thermostat fitbit dogs fitbit
that was a lot of slides.
What now? What should we be working on?
device contraints are pushing new communication standards
Battery life.
Networks will continue to suck.
All of a sudden we’re reading binary protocols again
washing machine should be able to create telemetry data
until things go wrong
then create case
humans suck at passwords,
minions aren’t bad.
Worst case these are being minted with guids.
Best case we get secure elements with keys, and manufacturer
and we can actually use a lot from OAuth and OpenID Connect
some scenarios - self asserted guid
full holder of key pattern
our ability to physically control all these devices will get worse
personal perimeter security is breaking down
so why engineer for this minions
that was a lot of slides.
What now? What should we be working on?
This of course requires you Protect all of these APIs
In order to do this…
Not only about being customer first.
