The future of identity security with Jacob DePriest | WORLD PASSWORD DAY SPECIAL

Episode 168 Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description

In our World Password Day Special, we’re digging into credentials, identity, and authentication  — and where security is  heading next. 🔐✨

In Watchtower Weekly, we reveal how people are using AI to generate passwords… and why that might not be a great idea. Then, in Crash Course, you’ll learn about entropy — what it actually means, and what makes a password truly strong. 🔤

1Password CISO Jacob DePriest joins the show later on to talk about identity security and the future of authentication. We cover password hygiene in 2026, passkeys, “passwordless,” and the rise of AI agents needing access to our accounts.

Plus: we’re celebrating World Password Day with a giveaway — your chance to win a free year of 1Password. 🎉
