In this #!ZKast, I meet with Dash Flynn, Principal Sports Consultant at AWS at @NFL TAC.Flynn dives into the long-standing and highly successful partnership between the NFL and @amazonwebservices now in its third iteration. He explains how this collaboration started with Next Gen Stats and evolved into the groundbreaking Digital Athlete program.Discover how the Digital Athlete creates a virtual representation of an NFL player, integrating a vast range of data sources from on-field performance to injury occurrences. Flynn details how they collect data using RFID tags, sensors, computer vision, and video to understand player movement dynamics, head impacts, and injury correlations.Learn who benefits from this incredible data: from team training staff optimizing practice schedules and reducing time lost to injuries, to the NFL itself using insights to inform crucial rule changes, like the recent kickoff adjustment and the elimination of the hip-drop tackle.Flynn also shares what's next for this innovative partnership, including expanding practice capabilities and potentially introducing a chatbot interface for more intuitive data querying. This is a fascinating look at how AI and digital twins are revolutionizing player health and safety in professional sports.For more on the AWS and NFL see: https://aws.amazon.com/sports/nfl/#NFL #AWS #NFLTechConference #DigitalAthlete #NextGenStats #SportsTech #AI #DigitalTwins #PlayerSafety #FootballAnalytics #MachineLearning #CloudComputing #DataAnalytics #ZeusKerravala #ZKResearch #SportsInnovation #NFLonAWS #TechInSports #PlayerHealth

Welcome to ZKast! From Amazon Web Services (AWS) re:Inforce 2025 in Philadelphia, I visit the 1Password booth and chat with Monica Jain, Head of Strategic Alliances, and Yashpreet Kaur, Product Manager.Monica and Yash delve into how 1Password is redefining cybersecurity with its "extended access management" solution. They explain how 1Password goes beyond traditional password management to secure every sign-in, user, and login across an organization, addressing the critical "access trust gap" that emerges from the sprawl of applications and devices used by employees. They highlight how 1Password provides IT greater visibility into sanctioned and unsanctioned app usage, and how they're uniquely positioned to secure AI agents and non-human identities, a growing concern in today's digital workspace.Learn about 1Password significant new Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) with AWS, announced at re:Inforce. This partnership aims to accelerate secure cloud adoption and tackle the evolving access trust gap, especially with the rise of AI. They also discuss their innovative Secret Syncing with AWS Secrets Manager, offering a secure and easy way to automatically sync developer secrets and environment variables, leveraging technologies like AWS Nitro Enclaves for confidential computing.@1PasswordVideos @amazonwebservices #AWSRe:Inforce #AWS #Cybersecurity #AccessManagement #ExtendedAccessManagement #AI #AIAgents #NonHumanIdentity #SecretsManager #SecretSyncing #CloudSecurity #DigitalWorkspace #Partnership #Innovation #TechInterview #ZeusKerravala #ZKResearch #Philadelphia #EnterpriseSecurity #IdentityAndAccessManagement #IAM
