In his recent paper, “The Emerging Architecture of Identity Management,” Gartner analyst Bob Blakely laid out a roadmap for a new identity management infrastructure. As a follow up, Bob will be joining Radiant Logic’s Dieter Schuller, Vice President of Sales and Business Development, for an upcoming webinar. The two will detail the new infrastructure as recommended by Gartner, and how Radiant Logic identity and context virtualization can help you implement it.
Needed: New Ways to Manage Identity
Over time, it has become increasingly difficult to build an integrated identity structure. As enterprises have added new audiences and acquired new companies, identities can no longer be managed the same way. What used to work—centralized authentication and authorization—no longer serves today’s far-flung, federated, and even cloud-based infrastructures.
The first challenge within such an evolving environment is to integrate identity and context for security and privacy. In order to do this, you need:
- A single view of identity through integration.
- A way to externalize security context (or any relevant context) out of existing data/application silos.
- The ability to join identity and context.
- And finally, the ability to scale in volume while providing the highest speed.
Until now, this has been an impossible task. But Bob and Dieter will give specifics on how these complex issues can be solved, and the answer is simple: Implement a virtual directory—but not just any virtual directory. You need a solution that will provide full support for an identity and context virtualization service.
