Decentralized identity is no longer theoretical—it’s becoming a practical part of modern hybrid architectures. This talk takes a deep technical dive into Microsoft Entra Verified ID, unpacking the cryptography, trust chains, and wallet mechanics that power verifiable credentials.

You’ll learn how issuance and presentation flows work under the hood, how trust is established and validated, and how Verified ID integrates with Entra ID in real environments. We’ll talk through design patterns, security considerations, and architectural trade-offs that matter when deploying verifiable credentials at scale. You’ll come away better equipped to evaluate where decentralized identity can strengthen their identity protection strategy and how to introduce it without creating new blind spots.
