Synthetic identities are growing in power and influence, and the risk to the industrial internet is growing with them.

The solution lies in attribution – critical infrastructure that audits all actors and their actions within a given environment.

The recent launch of the SpaceX Falcon Heavy almost broke the internet, but is anyone talking about the online response to Elon Musk’s tweet of the event? That tweetstorm response was actually a fake identity scamming for Ethereum – a form of synthetic identity managed by hackers with dangerous intentions.

In Synthetic Identities are not your Friends New Context CEO Daniel Riedel explores the security risks industries like finance, healthcare and energy are facing today, and how attribution and how a holistic approach to securing infrastructure will help preserve human identity.
