Some housekeeping notes for the tweet jam:

-           Pls use A1, A2… et al when responding to questions so it is easy for anyone following the discussion.

-           You can amplify others’ comments by retweeting. When modifying a tweet before retweeting, it is generally acceptable to use “MT” rather than “RT”

-           If replying to another tweet, pls don’t forget to use #authchat  and put a “.” (period) in front of the initiator’s twitter handle so everyone can see the response.

-           Feel free to solicit responses/comments from specific individuals by calling out their twitter handles. Just don’t forget to put the hashtag #authchat

Eating our own dog food – Oracle’s internal deployment of Oracle IDM

A good podcast was just released covering Oracle’s own internal deployment of Oracle IDM; more specifically OAM and OID.

This was a big project that involved migrating a bunch of critical, high volume applications to leverage OAM and OID. I mostly approve of what was done and how it was done. So I suggest you tune in to see and hear more about how we deploy our own software.

Oracle plans to leverage OIM internally are also discussed.

Live webcast (April 11th) with ING on their OIA-OIM implementation

Scale Up Without Getting Bogged Down

If your organization is like many, you’ve conducted access certification for a handful of applications. But what about the other thousand applications? Organizations are spending up to 40% of their IT budgets on compliance, yet many chief information security officers don’t feel any safer than they were before. With the large volume of systems, applications, users, and entitlements to review, the process is error-prone and difficult.

In this session, Mark Robison of ING shares his learning experiences on how to address these challenges. He will discuss how to:

• Simplify the user experience and achieve better service levels
• Reduce the help-desk workload with closed-loop remediation
• Scale the process of certifying applications
• Strike a balance between security risk and audit compliance

Interview with a Security Architect

Oracle is hosting a very interesting web event that I thought I would point our readers to.

The event is an interview with Balganesh Krishnamurthy who is the lead Security Architect for Agilent's Identity and Access Management program.

Balganesh shares his thoughts on creating an Identity & Access Management roadmap and how to build a business case for Identity Management.

With over 15 years of experience leading Enterprise software deployments, Balganesh has seen it all. In this session, he discusses his roadmap and provides guidance on how other architects can learn from his experience.

One reason I think that this event could be good is that in my experience customers that see IAM as strategic and therefore develop clear roadmaps that map to business objectives do achieve better results than customers that adopt an ad-hoc strategy to IAM.

With that in mind, here are the event details:
