The Identity and Access Management Scenario

Your enterprise needs to ensure that the right people can use the right resources at the right time and for the right reasons. Identity and access management (IAM) is the security, risk management and business discipline that optimizes your efficiency and effectiveness in meeting this need. Your IAM technology projects can improve service levels and facilitate regulatory compliance, but to get the full value of IAM you need a governance approach that works from strategic principles to production operations.

Smartphone Security Assessments and Best Practices

Smartphones are like little PCs and they bring both old and new technological and opportunistic threats to the Enterprise. This presentation uses Gartner’s broad analysis of phone threats and technologies to chart a safe course through your mobile choices.

10 Key Steps to Testing In-Line Security Devices

Selecting security products is a complex process that carries significant risks, because poorly chosen products can fail to protect against serious threats, cause serious performance problems for enterprise networks and waste scarce financial resources as companies overspend. Use testing procedures designed for your enterprise and your threat environment to determine the best in-line network security products for your enterprise and IT organization's needs.

Managing Identity in the Cloud

Enterprises have been working to bring internal identity and access management under control. Outsourcing applications and using SaaS can create new identity islands and add complexity. This presentation provides strategic and tactical guidance for reducing IAM complexity in dynamic, increasingly distributed environments.

Best Practices in IT Security and IT Operations Integration

Project work and technologies that straddle IT security and IT operations are needed to build and maintain an environment that is resilient to attack. Configuration auditing, service dependency mapping and workflow integration will improve security and operational efficiency.
