There are numerous changes both in-flight and upcoming that affect the way browsers interact with and support cookies. Cookies are a key mechanism in existing identity authentication/authorization flows. George Fletcher, Identity Standards Architect at Verizon Media, Inc. will be discussing these changes, how they impact identity flows and touch on additional topics being proposed by the browser manufacturers. Moderating the session will be Heather Flanagan, Program Director, SeamlessAccess.org.

He is a seasoned software architect with 25+ years of software development and architecture experience covering a wide variety of disciplines including artificial intelligence, "real-time" media processing, graphical information systems, consumer electronic devices and large scale internet deployments.
In addition to his responsibilities at Verizon Media, George is also a community elected board member of the OpenID Foundation (OIDF) and serves on the OIDF Executive Committee. He is involved in a number of identity standards efforts including OpenID Connect, OAuth 2, and User Managed Access (Kantara Initiative).
