19.04.2010 Article on the “new German digital ID card – nPA” from Martin Kuppinger available

Duesseldorf April, 19th, 2010 - Martin Kuppinger, co-founder and Principal Analyst at Kuppinger Cole, has written an article about the new German digital ID card in which he discusses the security and usability issues as well as the “pseudonymity” feature that will soon be introduced with the “neuer Personal-Ausweis”, or “ePA”. His conclusion is that, far from creating transparent “glass” customers or citizens,  the nPA will instead be a big step forward, ushering in a new era of information security as well as a wealth of new and innovative use cases, many of which critics of the new system can’t even imagine yet.

31.03.2010 Press Release: Article on „ Identity Management for the cloud – taking the next step” from Martin Kuppinger available

Duesseldorf March, 31st, 2010 - Martin Kuppinger, co-founder and Principal Analyst at Kuppinger Cole, has written an article on the topic of „Identity Management for the Cloud“ in which he explores the reasons why companies and organizations must ask themselves if their Identity and Access Management (IAM) systems are capable of handling not just external users, but external ones as well: suppliers, partners and above all customers. Such comprehensive systems will increasingly become necessary as parts of corporate IT, especially services and data, become cloud-born. Here, security issues such as access governance and IT risk and compliance will dictate coming trends. In his article, Mr. Kuppinger gives an overview and suggests solution strategies that will enable companies and organizations to face the future of distributed IT with confidence.

Press Release: GRC Reference Architecture
14.10.2009 Press Release: GRC Reference Architecture

New Overview Report from Kuppinger Cole available

Duesseldorf October, 14th, 2009 - Governance, Risk & Compliance - these three terms, in short "GRC" are pretty widely used in these days. Unfortunately, there is great confusion in how this term is used. The reason for this confusion is with high probability the fact that it allows to sell pretty easily all kind of technology under the umbrella of "Risk" and "Compliance" solutions.

The new report "A GRC Reference Architecture" aims to clarify the term GRC by defining a reference architecture, what exactly should be part of a GRC framework and how the different parts interact. It looks at GRC from a company-wide point of view, assembling all activities that have a certain internal control nature, yet focused on cost effectiveness and overall capability building.
