Strata Identity Launches The Identity Heroes To Spotlight Real-World IAM Journeys

New video podcast series features CISOs, architects, and identity experts sharing candid insights and career-defining experiences

BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#CloudIAM--Strata Identity, the Identity Orchestration company, today announced the launch of The Identity Heroes, a new video podcast (videocast) series that gives a voice to the people behind some of today’s most challenging and impactful identity and access management (IAM) projects. Featuring candid, informal conversations, each episode of The Identity Heroes explores real-world stories, technical lessons, and personal reflections with CISOs, architects, and identity experts.

Hosted by Strata’s identity experts—including Field CTO Aldo Pietropaolo, VP of Product and Standards Gerry Gebel, and Senior Director of Product Marketing Mark Callahan—The Identity Heroes delves into real-world experiences of some of the industry’s leading practitioners and pioneers. The series aims to educate and inspire IAM professionals with actionable insights and perspectives on topics such as modernization, Zero Trust, policy, and resilience.

“No one goes to school for identity, which is why we created The Identity Heroes—to celebrate the real people solving tough problems behind the scenes,” said Aldo Pietropaolo, Field CTO of Strata Identity. “This videocast isn’t about promoting products—it’s about surfacing the lessons, breakthroughs, and moments of truth that can help others in the IAM community grow their careers and navigate complex challenges.”

Each 40-minute episode features a relaxed, unscripted conversation focused on each Identity Heroes’ professional journey, career-defining projects, challenges and learnings, and their perspective on the road ahead.

The first three episodes of Identity Heroes featuring Eve Maler, President and Founder of Venn Factory, Sebastian Rohr, CTO of Umbrella.Associates GmbH and Sulohita Vaddadi, CISO of GE Corporate, are now live and available on YouTube, Spotify, and the Strata Identity website, with new episodes released every month.
