Securing the Return from Identity Management

Identity Management holds the promise of dramatically reducing the cost and time an organization spends administering user access to its resources. To achieve the full return from Identity Management, a key challenge must be addressed: how to extend administration of identities to employees, partners and customers - including delegated administration outside the organization - while ensuring the governance and potential legislative requirements for the organization are met.

In this session, Entrust will talk about best practices for integrating the necessary components to provide simple to use security to deliver the necessary accountability and privacy for Identity Management to be fully deployed, enabling a  significant return on investment.

Entrust will also discuss the role and need for security in federated identities, where organizations will be relying on the ability to not only deploy and manage users (through identity management), but also automatically and securely exchange user information from company to company in the absence of human involvement (via web services applications).
