A Digital Identity Digest is an audio companion to my weekly blog. It provides clear, accessible summaries of timely identity topics, helping busy professionals understand what’s changing and why it matters. Spherical Cow Consulting is a one-person strategic advisory firm focused on digital identity standards, governance, and emerging technologies. I help organizations make sense of what's coming next in authentication, credentials, and digital identity infrastructure—especially when it intersects with policy, AI, and internet architecture. I support product managers, security and identity practitioners, and policy professionals who need to stay informed about identity standards and strategic shifts—but don’t have time to follow every working group or spec document.
