In this episode of The B2B Marketing Podcast, David Rowlands caught up with Adam Preis, Director of Product/Solution Marketing, and Marta George, Head of EMEA ABM Programmes – both of Ping Identity. In this episode, Marta and Adam chat through the importance of working in close alignment with the product team in order to drive commercial success. This follows the recent revelation in Propolis – the global community for B2B marketers – that senior marketing leaders feel more detached from the product team than ever before. If you want to get in the room with more than 400 account-based marketers, hear no-holds-barred ABM case studies, and learn what works (and what doesn't!), join us at The Global ABM Conference 2024 on 6 November.

draft When the federal government makes a strategic decision to implement Zero Trust principles, they must consider both user identity and the data users are trying to access.  Today, we have leaders in the federal and commercial sectors look at both data and identity and emphasize the need for centralized coordination, automated labeling, and real-time access control through Identity Management. Brian Rosensteel from Ping Identity argues that some kind of “federated” identity management system is the most effective for federal identification. Each agency really cannot be responsible for responding in a timely manner given the details that Zero Trust demands. Access controls have been around since the start of networks. During the discussion, participants gave opinions on the value of both access based and role-based access controls. They also suggested that “context” based access controls may provide additional abilities for systems administrators to improve real-time access controls.

On this episode of How to Grow a CMO, host Alastair Hussain is joined by Kevin Sellers, CMO at Ping Identity.  Kevin and Ali discuss how CMOs can get their CFOs on board, and what it's like to lead marketing at a company that has transitioned from public to private.  Kevin also recalls asking his team to break down the buyer journey for a large deal in an impressive level of detail, and shares what he learned from a memorable meeting he once had with a certain Mr. Steve Jobs.  How to Grow a CMO is brought to you by The Marketing Practice - the global leader in B2B technology marketing.

Badge Inc., the award-winning privacy company enabling Identity without Secrets, has announced a partnership with Cisco Duo to revolutionise Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) with the industry's first hardware-independent roaming MFA solution. With this unique integration, Duo and Badge are setting new standards for what's possible in secure, efficient, and user-friendly identity and authentication solutions. MFA is an important security tool to combat unauthorised account access, however, it is not infallible. Traditional hardware-based MFA is high friction, can disrupt operations, and the resulting employee workarounds significantly increase the attack surface for security breaches. Additionally, the two-factor authentication (2FA) market is becoming increasingly commoditised with the service now being included in popular applications from large technology providers . Per year, 16 billion authentications pass through Cisco's Duo Authenticator product the vast majority of which are virtual and remote desktop authentications requiring users to be in possession of a second device which is not always available or allowed depending on the environment. This has created a large, unsolved market need that Badge is uniquely positioned to address. Badge enables Cisco Duo to unlock new identity and authentication use cases while reducing friction and enabling seamless, password-less enrolment using verifiable credentials (VCs). Badge leverages the initial identity verification (IDV) enrolment, and from there the user can authenticate to access this credential anywhere, anytime, on any device. There is no need for repeat IDVs throughout the user lifetime journey, which reduces user frustration and increases cost-effectiveness for Cisco Duo. "With Badge's novel privacy-preserving authentication, Cisco Duo users can access any device or application without storing user secrets or private keys," stated Dr. Tina P Srivastava, Co-founder of Badge. "This eliminates the friction and cost burdens associated with traditional MFA methods like tokens and repeated phone re-registration. Additionally, by removing reliance on physical devices and insecure account recovery processes, Badge and Duo are raising the bar, making it harder for attackers to gain unauthorised access." As Cisco Duo posted in their blog announcing the new Badge and Duo integration, when users are in device-not-present situations, like when a mobile phone required for an MFA push is lost, broken, or unavailable, the fallback is usually a phishable, high friction account recovery process. Not only is this bad for the user experience, but it's bad for security too - as account recovery is increasingly becoming the front door for attackers and phishing. Recent high-profile attacks in healthcare and entertainment demonstrate this growing threat. In the piece, "Badge Integration with Cisco Duo Delivers Ultimate Hardware-less MFA Experience," Cisco Duo's blog points out that Badge eliminates disruptions and the need for account recovery, significantly reducing the risk of fraud. "Duo can also operate as a certified passkey provider leveraging Badge - extending the password-less capabilities of Duo," said Ginger Leishman, Technology Partnerships Manager, Cisco Duo. "Unlike other passkey models, the Badge integration with Duo does not require users to cede trust of their key trees or login credentials to a centralised authority." She also expanded on how Duo users leveraging the Badge passkey implementation benefit from a trust model where users can establish key provenance and maintain control over their authentication keys, enhancing security and privacy. Again, with Badge, users enrolls once, and may access their passkeys on any device (including across Apple, Microsoft and Google ecosystems). With today's announcement, Cisco is the latest member of Badge's partner network, which also includes marquee identity partners, Okta/Auth0, Radiant Logic and Ping Identity. An interview wi...

Only one funding announcement this week, so we dive deep into Thoma Bravo's past and present portfolio. They recently announced a sale of Venafi to Cyberark and no one is quite sure how much of a hand they had in the LogRhythm/Exabeam merger, and whether or not they sold their stake in the process. We also have a crazy stat Ross Haleliuk spotted in Bessemer's analysis: "13 out of 14 cybersecurity companies acquired in the past year for over $100M were from Israel". Is this an anomaly? Does it just mean that Israel wasn't shy about selling when the market was down? We discuss. A number of new product announcements continue to trickle out post-RSA. We'll also discuss Sam Altman and OpenAI's decision to use Scarlett Johansson's voice against her will and what it could mean for deepfakes, advanced social engineering techniques, and general big tech sliminess. Do you know what a "product glorifier" is? How about a glowstacker? You will if you check out the second-to-last story in the show notes!

Humanizing your brand is one of the most difficult challenges in marketing.But there's a proven solution to getting people to associate your business with more than just its logo: a spokesperson.A spokesperson is the voice and face of your company. It can't just be anybody. You need someone with a trusted voice. Someone who can speak about your product with authenticity. Someone who can talk to your customers in the language they use. And it doesn't have if that someone is a little charming, too.This week, we're taking lessons from comedic actor and entrepreneur Ryan Reynolds, who has become the face of his own brands like Aviation Gin and Mint Mobile. Here to help us is SaaS SEO thought leader Liam Barnes, Head of Demand Generation and Programs at Bionic, an application security posture management platform. With Ryan and Liam by our side, we're showing you how to choose an effective spokesperson, why hiring a celebrity isn't so far out of reach, and why you shouldn't gatekeep your content.About Ryan ReynoldsRyan Reynolds is a Canadian-American actor, producer, and entrepreneur whose career took off after he starred in National Lampoon's Van Wilder. He's also starred in Waiting, Adventureland, Free Guy, and the Deadpool franchise.Ryan's track record as an entrepreneur may be even more impressive than his work in film. Three businesses he has either invested in or owns have sold for incredibly impressive figures: Aviation Gin ($610 million), Mint Mobile ($1.35 billion), and film production and digital advertising agency Maximum Effort (undisclosed). He also has financial interests in the Wrexham Association Football Club, 1password, and Wealthsimple.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Ryan Reynolds:Choose an in-house evangelist for your brand. There's no one who knows your product better than someone who lives and breathes it on a daily basis. Your ideal evangelist is someone who can vouch for your product and speak the language of your customers – and has a stake in the business's success. Ryan Reynolds is not only the owner of Mint Mobile, but also the company's in-house evangelist. He has the authority, investment, and understanding of the product to share the benefits of becoming a customer. And because one of Mint Mobile's values is that they're cheap, he highlights it by, for example, featuring his family in the ads as “barely paid spokespeople.” Chances are that you already have some great brand evangelists in your B2B company. This could be a CXO with a strong social media presence who's established as a thought leader in your industry, someone on your product team who is consistently engaging with your community in popular forums, or even the new hire who's documenting their journey at your company.Hire a celebrity to be your company spokesperson. We love internal brand evangelists. But we also love influencer marketing, and what's hot right now? Getting a celebrity to be the face of your brand. They're more accessible than you think. Partnerships come at a range of price points, and you don't need a mega A-lister to make a big impact. According to an article in the Journal of Advertising Research, celebrity endorsements can increase a company's sales by an average of 4%. Ping Identity hired actor and athlete Terry Crews to be their “chief identity champion” for a brand awareness campaign that launched in October 2020. According to Ping Identity CMO Kevin Sellers, the company's website traffic increased 1000 percent after the launch of the campaign. So dig deep into your brand's voice and mission and find a celebrity or influencer who can embody your brand. The results speak for themselves! Bonus points if they bring a little humor into it!Make your content accessible. Distribution is key! There is a lot of great B2B content out there – but too often, companies limit their audience by gatekeeping their content. With his businesses, Reynolds takes a different approach. His businesses don't spend heavily on advertising, but the ads they do create are funny, engaging, and accessible to everyone. The ads often go viral, further expanding their reach. (If you want to see a textbook example of what we're talking about, check out this Mint Mobile ad!) And while we understand that not all B2B content can be a quirky one-minute advertisement, the key here is simple: unlock the gate. Don't keep your best ideas in an email newsletter or in a hotel conference room. You're limiting your audience when you do.Key Quotes*“He has this sense of ownership and everything is tongue in cheek. When we're buying his stuff, we're buying a little bit of Ryan. He vouched for it. And it's just really novel, how he productizes himself. A gin is just a gin. But when Ryan Reynolds is behind it, now it means something more.” - Ian Faison*”It's important to surround yourself with good people who are very good at their job. And with Ryan Reynolds, he has George Dewey as his business partner, who is that creative genius, that ad genius. He understands marketing, he understands culture, he understands people.” - Ian Faison*”It's important to have someone who is likable, charismatic and engaging as the spokesperson. Someone who's very close and tied and invested into the company driving the story and driving the thought leadership of the company. Especially in security, we have a really hard time getting founders, getting evangelists, getting technical people to want to push the story forward. And it's because they just don't have that advertising expertise, the marketing expertise. They're engineers, they're not writers. And if they were writers, they were like research-based writers, so the creativity side of it was lost. And so it's important to do both things. Partner the front running technical people in your company with solid marketers, and help them push the narrative forward. - Liam Barnes *”Something that Ryan Reynolds understands is the distribution of the content that he's creating. He could definitely go and headline user conferences or go and do features where he goes and shows up at certain places where people ask him questions and pay attention to him for an hour. But then there's nothing after that. And something that companies get really wrong is they put all this time and energy into a user conference and then they gate it. They put it behind this paywall, or they make you give your information to them and then nobody sees it after the conference…Honestly, what most people would react more positively to is, go ahead and have the user conference, then go spend time distributing the content correctly. It's just something that's a completely missed opportunity. It's an interesting kind of dynamic that you see a lot in b2b, where everything's gated and nobody has access, and they're wondering why they're not getting the returns from it. It's because nobody ends up actually seeing it.” - Liam Barnes“To make your ads better, make the creative more memorable and funnier. And then just put a little bit of that marketing engine behind it, retargeting and AB testing, and all the stuff that we have at our disposal to supercharge that really good creative. Because at the end of the day, if you're just promoting bad creative and boring creative, it's never going to get legs.” - Ian Faison“It's less about trying to make your chosen spokesperson charismatic. It's more about trying to make that person relatable to who we're selling to. So our CEO and CTO are engineers and security folks. And we're selling to engineering and security folks. So I don't have to make them the most charismatic people. I just have to make them relatable. They have shared experiences with those people. They've been in security before, they've been through writing code and building systems and doing DevOps and running security teams, and doing the security research. And so just talking about those personal experiences and relating it to what those teams are going through. That's all you really need.” - Liam BarnesTime Stamps[1:31] Introducing Liam Barnes, Head of Demand Generation and Programs at Bionic[2:13] What's Bionic?[4:05] Who's Ryan Reynolds?[5:55] What makes Ryan Reynolds an effective spokesperson?[12:14] How did Ryan Reynolds become a marketing powerhouse?[18:50] What can we learn about B2B marketing from Ryan Reynolds?[23:54] How can B2B companies use celebrity spokespeople?[36:22] How can companies make their CEO an effective spokesperson?LinksListen to Demand Gen Visionaries with Liam BarnesTune in to Everyday Demand Gen with Liam BarnesSee the Axonius x Simone Biles adCheck out IBM Watson's collaboration with fashion designer Gaurav GuptaTake a look at Microsoft's collab with National Geographic in their “Make What's Next” initiative Create your own business thriller starring an A-list celebritySee Coinbase's $7M Superbowl ad that got people talkingAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.
