TechMeetup

✨ Speaker 1: Markandey Pathak - Auth Wars - Rise of the Passkeys

In a world where passwords have become the shackles of digital existence, a revolutionary solution emerges from the digital cosmos — Passkeys. Step into the future of cybersecurity, where the age-old struggles with forgotten passwords and relentless hacking attempts are but a distant memory. Join me on an intergalactic journey through the realms of authentication, as we unveil the secrets behind Passkeys and witness the demise of the password era. Picture a universe where accessing your digital realm is seamless, where the only key you need is uniquely yours and embedded in the very fabric of your being.

All are welcome and there is no requirement to have any level of tech knowledge or experience to attend, just a desire to learn. Come along (bring your friends), network and learn something new with us!

To make Glasgow's Tech Meetup welcoming for people joining for the first time we implement the PacMan Rule.

The rule is:
“When standing as a group of people, always leave room for 1 person to join your group.”

More memorably, stand like Pac-Man! You can learn more about this here.
