Description:

Based in Norway, Per Thorsheim is an independent security adviser for organizations and government. He is also the founder of PasswordsCon.org, a conference that’s all about passwords, PIN codes, and authentication. Launched in 2010, the conference is a gathering security professionals & academic researchers worldwide to better understand and improve security worldwide.

In part one of our conversation, Per explains - despite the risks - why we continue to use passwords, the difference between 2-factor authentication and 2-step verification, as well as the pros and cons of using OAuth.

Naturally the issue of privacy comes up when we discuss connected accounts with OAuth. So we also made time to cover Privacy by Design as well as the upcoming EU General Data Protection Regulation(GDPR).
