IDPro offers a global, professional community to ensure that identity professionals are recognized, connected, and equipped to advance secure, trustworthy digital services.

What we do:

  • Foster a multi-disciplinary, global community of professionals at all phases of their careers
  • Cultivate an enhanced talent pipeline capable of serving organizations and institutions of all sizes 
  • Curate continuing education resources that respond to the constantly evolving technological landscape.

Why we do it:

Businesses, governments, institutions, and individuals depend on identity to maximize opportunities and solve the challenges of authenticity and trust:

  • Empower all people to thrive in an increasingly global, online economy
  • Recognize authentic people, agents, and devices and give them appropriate access
  • Protect against rising rates of fraud, theft, and cybercrime

You belong here.

The identity profession is defined not by a single title but by a shared discipline. Its practitioners work across security, policy, architecture, product, compliance, and beyond – often without the word “identity” anywhere on their business card. This isn’t a gap to close. It’s the nature of the field. IDPro exists to ensure that no matter what your role is called, you have a professional community, a body of knowledge, and a path to excellence.
