OASIS Panel: ID Protocols – Out with the Old and in with the New?

Have you ever wondered whether old ID Protocols should coexist with new ones or simply get out of their way?  Familiarizing yourself with the ins and outs of cloud identity and the use of different sets of protocols is a huge challenge.  Confusion seems to be elevated because the technologies are evolving, and do overlap in some cases, and maybe even fit together in a few different ways.  There is debate over the pros and cons of overlapping technologies such as Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), OAuth, System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM), and eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML).  But as the adoption levels of these technologies increase, different use cases are identified where one technology fits better than another, and that should help companies decide what combination of technologies best meets their needs.  During this session the speakers will address four ID protocols, including:  SAML, OAuth, SCIM, and XACML.  Each speaker will cover the pros and cons of one protocol and take questions from the audience.
