Lighthouse Security Group Session at Cloud Expo

Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a complex challenge faced by organizations worldwide, and the introduction of cloud applications threatens to further exacerbate the matter. IAM solutions have recently emerged that use the public cloud to achieve deep cost reductions without diluting performance. What are the fundamentals of Identity and Access Management in your on-premise and cloud-based hybrid application ecosystem?

In his session at the 5th International Cloud Expo, Eric Z. Maass, Enterprise Security Solutions Director at Lighthouse Security Group, will discuss the core challenges that face every organization, such as SSO, Access Controls, Identity Provisioning, and Federation, and will take a deeper look into the components of a comprehensive IAM system. He will specifically address the extension of IAM to the Cloud and identity integration with SaaS partners and share critical information required to achieve powerful ROI while avoiding pitfalls and hype that may compromise your organization's security.
