Turning Customer Identity into A Growth Engine (opens on the source site)
Auth0 ·
Every digital product leader knows the pain of funnel drop-off. You spend millions driving targeted traffic to your applications, only to watch potential customers abandon their carts, bounce off rigid sign-up forms, or drop out when confronted with unexpected multi-factor authentication (MFA) prompts. For years, Customer Identity and Access Management (CIAM) was viewed primarily as an infrastructure and security obligation — a digital gatekeeper designed to verify users and block bad actors. But in an era where customer acquisition costs are soaring and user expectations for seamless digital…

How Airbnb uses proximity signals to personalize without relying on individual user history.By: Wei Jiang, Bin Xu, Bharathi Thangamani, Weiwei Guo, Sundar Srinivasavaradhan, Tracy Yu, Huiji Gao, Swapnil Ghike, Michael KinotiGreat personalization starts with knowing your user. But what happens when the user is a stranger?A significant share of Airbnb users arrive without a login, without a recent search history, or without any prior booking — especially those landing from paid advertising or organic search. For these users, the ML models that power search ranking, destination recommendations,…

Trading a Cloud Identity for Your Own: Workload Attestation on Managed Compute (opens on the source site)
Netflix ·
By Dhruv PratapIntroductionOrganizations that have been around for a while usually run two identity systems side by side. One belongs to the cloud provider: IAM roles, instance profiles, execution roles. The other is your own, and it is the one your internal services actually check when they decide whether to answer a request.On infrastructure you build yourself, you can bootstrap your own identity however you like. On managed compute you cannot. The provider hands your process a cloud identity and nothing else.This post describes how we close that gap for Apache Spark workloads running on…

Constraining AI agents with Red Hat AI: Containment, identity, and governance (opens on the source site)
Red Hat ·
When an agent process runs on your laptop, it typically inherits anything your user has access to. Often this includes the full network stack, the file system, and the credentials sitting in memory. When integrating with GitHub, Slack, or a cloud provider, you could be one faulty permission or well-crafted prompt injection away from a security incident. The post Constraining AI agents with Red Hat AI: Containment, identity, and governance appeared first on Red Hat Developer.
Give every teammate and agent the right level of access to your Workers (opens on the source site)
You can now scope access to individual Workers and assign narrower Developer Platform roles, so teammates, CI tokens, and agents get only the access they need to debug, deploy, or monitor safely.
The accessibility audit that lowkey turned into a visual identity refresh (opens on the source site)
There's a version of this story where we tell you we always knew it would be this big. We didn't. When Brand Design and Product Design teams here at SurveyMonkey first started talking seriously, the conversation was modest. Our accessibility scores needed work. Some of our color choices weren't meeting contrast standards. We had a to-do list, not a vision. That conversation — and the work that followed — became Project Catalyst: a full visual identity refresh launched in August that touches everything from our product UI to our marketing, our type system to the way our design components…
How Identity Federation Empowers Partner API Strategy (opens on the source site)
Business identity is a complex issue rife with risks across the board. Large enterprises often require deep, flexible integrations with dozens or hundreds of partners, but this comes with significant risk — between the potential for information leakage, concerns around replays or data usage for continued insecure access, and the sheer friction of such a ...

Palana (Part 2): Architecting isolation, identity, and auditability for AI agents (opens on the source site)
Grab ·
Introduction In Part 1, we introduced Palana, Grab’s Kubernetes-native secure execution platform for autonomous AI agents. We discussed the underlying need for isolated environments and covered its core design principles: treating isolation as the unit of trust, keeping credentials out of agent hands, and mediating all network access. In this second part, we’ll dive under the hood into Palana’s architecture, look at the agent lifecycle, and share the key lessons we learned from putting this system into production. Architecture overview The core request path looks like this: Figure 1. Palana…

OIDC workload identity on AWS (opens on the source site)
Latacora ·
Update: after years of being on the wish list of a ton of top AWS teams, AWS released a built-in version of this feature about two weeks after we published this. Never let it be said gentle ribbing doesn’t work. Also, thanks AWS! We meant it when we said that the only thing better than having something easy to deploy was not needing to deploy anything at all. Everything in this post about workload identity is still relevant but you should probably use upstream’s implementation unless you have a good reason not to (for example, private validators for whom you need a VPC endpoint).

Every so often, the web changes in a way that rewires how we live. In the early days, Web 1.0 let us read. It was a window into information — static pages, digital brochures, news sites. We were spectators peering into a new world. Then came Web 2.0, and we learned to write. We didn’t […]
