Expertise in Identity & Access Management

October 13th and 14th 2008, Microsoft Campus, Reading UK.

In partnership with Microsoft, OCG will again be hosting the European User Group for Microsoft Identity & Access Technologies. As in previous years, the event will provide valuable information for those new to Identity & Access (IDA) and the Microsoft solution stack, as well as seasoned professionals with years of experience behind them. This event provides the ideal opportunity to advance your knowledge of identity and access and to discover more about Microsoft-based technologies and solutions.

With the much anticipated release of ILM "2", this years' agenda carries a particularly strong focus on this important software release. Most of day one will be spent exploring ILM "2" and the new opportunities it provides and explaining how they relate to specific IDA issues. A team of ISV's will share with us how ILM "2" impacts upon the industry-leading solutions they deliver and we give you a chance to put your ILM "2" questions to Microsoft, ISV's and a panel of experienced implementation consultants.

In day two we'll be looking at security, multi factor authentication, information protection, and intelligence in the access and provision of information. And since much of the underlying technology for identity synchronization in ILM "2" remains unchanged and will be familiar to users of MIIS 2003 and ILM 2007, we'll be asking (and answering) questions, such as; "what does ILM "2" add to the technologies I already know?" and "how will future ILM implementations differ?". Later in the day we will hear from customers that have implemented ILM and gain an insight into the latest thinking and technologies from Microsoft around the future of Federated Identity.
