Identity Management

Track: Identity Management: Making It Pay Off

People are the organization’s greatest asset. It’s equally true to say that people (malicious insiders) are the greatest threat. Managing identity has the potential to create significant value and avoid significant loss, especially in times of high personnel turnover. But Identity Management can also be a source of significant cost if it’s not implemented carefully. This track will teach you proven methods for getting high value out of Identity Management technologies and processes at low cost.

You’ll learn these techniques for improving IdM efficiency and value

  • Use technology you already own to improve management of identities
  • Accurately assess whose identities you need to manage and whose you can profitably have managed by third parties
  • Avoid business risk by using IdM to reveal who's doing what in the enterprise
  • Reduce compliance costs and fraud losses by automating compliance-critical identity lifecycle tasks
  • Improve business efficiency by using emerging Identity Service Providers "in the cloud"
