IAM is not an isolated part of IT. It is a part of the services IT delivers to the business. Even while being a very important topic, Identity Management has to be understood as a part of overall Business Service Management initiatives. Business process automation isn’t really different for IAM and for other services which IT provides. Identity Management is as well important because it is a cornerstone of IT accounting, as well as of the compliance-driven control of every business service management initiative. Eckhard Völcker provides his view and vision on how Identity Management has to be integrated in these overall strategies and how they will succeed – whilst isolated BSM strategies which focus only on some technical IT infrastructure services are likely to fail or at least not to fully deliver their promise.

Regulatory compliance has increased the focus on Identity and Security Management, particularly in the area of preventive controls. What is sometimes lost in the shuffle is that compliance is one aspect of GRC, and that companies are driven primarily by growth and profit. Policy management has an important role to play not only in compliance, but also in supporting the business agility necessary to realize corporate goals; to fulfill this role, policy must be available and manageable pervasively and transparently throughout organizational processes. This presentation describes the current landscape and a path forward.

Everyone Knows.... Globalization is one of the strongest trends shaping business environments today, with trust being central to build business to business relationships where online transactions replace personal interaction. Eroding trust means losing business and may even cause risks which fundamentally affect enterprises. Identity Management has become a key element to keep risks manageable and flexibility to react on market developments high.

With growing demand, the market for identity management solutions has become complex and fragmented, leading many adopters into immature implementations lacking interoperability and the perspective to adapt them to changing requirements. Mr. Schallenmüller explains, what the Siemens vision and strategy is to help businesses to find their way to an integrated multi-vendor multi-standards architecture, where privacy and security are not just seen as requirements, but are considered as business drivers.

Regulatory compliance and how these requirements impact IT budgets and priorities has been - over the past year in particular - a pressing issue for business and IT professionals alike. According to a new study published by IDC, the market demands IT products and services providers that understand these regulatory requirements at a high level yet deliver compliance solutions specific to individual vertical markets. All of these regulatory compliance requirements and internal control objectives have major IT security components to protect the assets of the public or the markets which are served by the client's business. Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), Basel II, Gramm-Leach-Biley Act, HIPAA, SCADA, SOX, Europe Data Protection Directive, J-SOX are examples of some of the major and increasing drivers of defining how IT Security needs to be executed.

The foundation of any information security strategy is the ability to authenticate and authorize the users in your enterprise IT network. As the definition of a legitimate user expands, the challenge of identity and access management becomes more complex, and threats to the enterprise infrastructure increase.

As customers’ increasingly interconnect employees, customers and partners with enterprise’s processes and applications, security management becomes vital to the health of business. And not only because is it important to managing risks and to facilitating compliance with enterprise and governmental mandates. A superior security management solution can give your business the flexibility and integration to quickly adapt to changing market requirements and secure new initiatives and services.

Pundits talk about “Identity is center” or “Identity is the base” or even “Identity is the platform” in attempting to place Identity within the correct context of electronic interactions. But Identity won’t fully deserve that core place until we can put more context into the identity transactions. It’s only through knowing the full context - the Who, What, When, Where, How and Why – of an Identity event that we can properly determine the action that should follow.

Polls show that people say they will only deal with organization that they can trust to protect their personal data. What can organizations do to achieve this trust?

The current trend of Biometric traits in governments issued cards such as e-passports, citizen-id or some employee-id cards like in fips201 will definitely change the Identification landscape. The drop in cost of various biometric technologies appears to make them good candidates for enterprise identification systems as well. The risks for the individuals of identification of unfettered usage of advance identification technologies appear considerable.

Even the privacy friendly initiatives today (cardspace, Higgins) present the end-user with unfair consent requests that he/she might be ill-equipped to answer, with no understanding of the risks behind the consent. Simply put every release of identification information bears certain risks.

Identity is a valuable commodity. In this context it seems important to start looking at strategies minimizing the release of identification information in usage scenarios, with significant usage of managed anonymity on end of the spectrum, possession based ticketing technologies, before we reach use cases requiring the very controlled release of irreplaceable identity traits.
