Every 2026 budget decision will come down to a simple question: does this investment deliver measurable value. Leaders are expected to cut costs, reduce risk, and still deliver growth. In that environment, the way you handle digital identity can no longer be an afterthought—it has to be a priority.
This is especially true as identity fraud accelerates across all fronts, driven by generative AI brute force attacks, deepfakes, and social media scams. Legacy technology isn’t just failing to keep up, it’s the root cause of these problems.
That is why we wrote Decentralized Identity: The Superpower Every 2026 Budget Needs. It explains why Verifiable Credentials are a transformational new technology that combines authentication and fraud prevention in one, simple, and cost effective solution that you can easily inject into your systems and operations.
Can you inoculate your IAM processes against deepfakes?
Yes you can — by incorporating authenticated biometrics into Verifiable Credentials. We explain how organizations are already doing just that to cut fraud and costs, and how you can too, by showing a practical path for adoption.
Now is the time to act. As 2026 budgets are finalized, the organizations that plan for Verifiable Credentials today will be the ones that are positioned to lead their markets. Get an in-depth knowledge and actionable insights that you can turn into immediate savings.
