These policies control not only who can access the services, but also when they can access the services, how they can use the services, and how the access control decision is made. A best practice framework will be described, which scales to high-volume usage and allows reuse of these policies, promoting efficiency and reducing time-to-market and development costs. Besides KuppingerCole�s Senior Analyst Felix Gaehtgens, who will give an introduction and moderate the webinar, Gerry Gebel, David Brossard (both Axiomatics) and Mark O�Neill (Vordel) will give their view on standards-based policies for SOA and Cloud.

Identity Management & SOA 24.04.2008 11:30-12:30 Stuart Boardman, CGI Dennis Attinger, Philips International
This presentation focuses on issues related to identity and access management as traditional enterprises move into an extended enterprise model, based on SOA concepts. Usually the resulting architectures are a mix of eBusiness portals with an enterprise internal SOA and a strong and inflexible set of legacy components. As a consequence, identities must be managed across all domains and legal/regulatory requirements adhered to. Although solutions exist for most parts of the overall puzzle, the resulting architecture presents considerable challenges for governance and operations. Philips have conducted a pilot project together with CGI that involves some out of the box thinking and which we hope will result in a greatly simplified but generalizable solution for these issues. The presentation will explain the architecture and present the results of the pilot to date. View details
IdM, SOA & IT-Governance 24.04.2008 14:00-15:00 Martin Kuppinger, KuppingerCole
Over the last years, Compliance has often been cited as the most important driver for Identity Management. But, honestly, it is IT Governance as one of the most important parts of Corporate Governance. Within IT Governance (and within the identity and access management), the scope shouldn’t be limited to either Enterprise Systems and core business processes or to the Identity Management level. Companies need an consistent approach for IT Governance which focuses on risks as well as compliance and which integrates SOAs, IAM and BPM (and may be BSM) to really fulfill the requirements. Martin Kuppinger will provide his thoughts on this topic within this session. View details
