Who Did You Actually Hire? Closing the Identity Gap Across the Employee Lifecycle
Every system in the employment lifecycle inherits identity from the step before it. Applicant tracking systems accept self-asserted data, background screening runs against unverified names and Social Security numbers, and access platforms provision credentials that were never anchored to a real person. That assumption held in a pre-AI world. It no longer does — deepfake interviews, synthetic candidates, and organized infiltration campaigns now exploit the seams between each step.
This session moves quickly from why the gap exists to what closes it: a stage-by-stage framework for placing identity assurance where fraud actually enters. It spans interviews and background screening through day-one onboarding and account recovery — calibrating controls against candidate and employee friction, and clarifying ownership across HR, IT, legal, and security.
Attendees will leave with a framework they can apply to their own process, pre-hire and post-hire.
