It’s gonna be a jam-packed May for Identity
This is probably an anomaly, but May is shaping up to be a pretty jam-packed month for me in the identity-related conference circuit, with some great events going on where I will be speaking/hoping to speak. My participation is still subject to some approvals coming through, but I’m fairly confident on that front. So there [...]
Can OAuth do what SPML hasn’t?
I spent an interesting week at HQ last week, trying to deal with some of the craziness that occurs every time a major release is on its way. But far more interesting were all the identity management conversations I engaged in during the course of the week – in hallways, over meals and especially over [...]
Screencast of my OpenWorld Session on “IdM and the Cloud”
On Monday, I presented at Oracle OpenWorld on the topic of “Identity Management and the Cloud: Stormy Days Ahead?“. The title proved to be a little too prescient, because the weather in San Francisco was pretty nasty. And as you can imagine, the number of jokes made about this became all to predictable. Unfortunate coincidences [...]

Webinar – Identity Services and the Cloud
I’m doing a webinar with KuppingerCole on the topic of “Identity Services and the Cloud: What Every Enterprise Needs To Know” today at 11 am EST. Cloud security is widely viewed as the number one roadblock for enterprise adoption. At the same time, many are jumping into cloud computing without fully understanding what they are [...]
IdM and the Cloud: A Chance To Do Things Right
Over 2 months ago (wow, time really flies when you are trying to keep up with the Twitter firehose), I wrote an introductory post to a topic that I am beginning to examine in some detail – the impact Cloud Computing will have on Identity Management. Back in May, I tweeted that I believe cloud [...]
Burton Catalyst 2009: The Twisted Web We Weave
I’m finally settling back into work after a wonderful week out in sunny San Diego at Burton Group‘s annual Catalyst Conference. And it wasn’t just the weather outside that was wonderful. Inside you could find some thought-provoking sessions, inspiring discussions and great people. It’s given me way too much to blog about, and I hope [...]
The Twitter Break-In: Anything to learn here?
The answer is: Plenty. In a nutshell, here is what happened as I understand it: A hacker named Hacker Croll (who has been a pain in Twitter’s behind for a while now) was able to gain access to the Gmail accounts of various twitter employees, including founder Evan Williams. He was then able to use [...]
