The State of Identity Management: The Need and The Marketplace
(Enterprise Identity Management Track)
Identification has always been at the heart of human interactions and transactions, but the rapid pace at which we have raced into the networked world has exceeded our ability to manage this most basic function. Nowhere is this truer than in the enterprise where identity management has become one of the top priorities for organizations of all types. From the basic functions of access management, provisioning and single sign-on, to the sophisticated challenges of federated ID, Inside ID puts you on the inside track to more secure, confidence inspiring, networks.
Moderator:
Yuriy Dzambasow, Director, Commercial & Federal Security Services, A & N Associates, Inc.

IN-DEPTH SESSIONS WITHIN THIS SEMINAR INCLUDE:

• Three trends driving the demand for identity management: the aggregation of content and users, Web services, online partnerships
• Challenges in creating, managing, and using online identities
• Three identity management models: silo, closed community, federated
• Requirements for achieving single sign-on for the Internet: identity vetting, credential maintenance, revocation, privacy, user access and control
• Innovations in identity management and what businesses must do to prepare for online federated identity
• Industry outlook: how identity management will extend the reach of business partnerships and online commerce

Identity Theft
(Government ID Applications Track)
The term identity theft encompasses many different crimes, but one factor that they all have in common is that they are growing fast –tripling year-to-year– and depending on the definition, now topping $5 billion annually in the U.S.

The first defenses against the nation's long-standing "fastest growing crime" have been law enforcement investigations and consumer education. But, new ways to steal account numbers, passwords and personal information keep popping up… and growing. What will it take to put a damper on the rapid rise in ID theft and the resulting financial losses and inconvenience? This session will report on the current state of the criminal art and provide insights into how the crime, and efforts to fight it, will evolve over the coming year.

This session will examine the environment surrounding the current excitement about enterprise ID management. Industry analysts will describe how the market is taking shape and what to watch for in the rapidly changing, and very competitive ID environment.

Biometric Technology
(Technologies and Policies Track)
Biometric technology has come a long way in the past few years and in more ways than you may think. While technical breakthroughs continue to be made, the real progress has come through integration of biometrics into broader system solutions, the development of interoperability standards and better application-appropriate testing. Significant revenues are beginning to flow in the market as many large-scale programs enter their implementation stages.

With costs dropping and performance improving, the most important factor for success may be as simple as making sure to choose the right technology and supplier to fit your situation. This session will put you face to face with the experts who can help guide you through the myths and realities of modern biometric solutions.

Authentication: The Front End of Sound Identity Management
(Enterprise Identity Management Track)
Often we get caught up in the technical sophistication of our systems, but the fact is that the foundation of a trusted identity management system is establishing our trust in the individual. Independently verifying a user's identity in a transaction is the basis for defining the relationships between entities. Complicating matters is the fact that there are different levels of security assurances for different situations.

This session covers the authentication processes and attributes within industry verticals as well as the technical and business implications of setting and assigning assurance levels through public key certificate policy. Find out how knowledge-based authentication services are being used for proofing and vetting and learn about the implementation challenges in verifying user identities in the pharmaceutical, transportation, and financial industries.

This presentation will focus on the lessons learned from implementing Knowledge Based Authentication (KBA) for online ordering of vital records at the Virginia Department of Health Vital Records. Utilizing KBA is an example of the state's due diligence process to reduce the risk of a vital record being obtained fraudulently.

Homeland Security
(Government ID Applications Track)
No single problem has mobilized activity in the identification systems marketplace as much as global terrorism. Now, three years after the September 11 attacks, many of the systems that have long been on the drawing board are moving into the field. In almost every case, ID technologies are just part of the overall system solution, but in many cases it is a very big piece. Homeland security is quickly becoming home to some of the largest and most sophisticated applications of smart cards, RFID, fingerprints, facial and iris recognition, electronic photo ID, PKI and more.

The recently awarded US-VISIT program alone could have a value of nearly $10 billion. And soon, additional projects such as the Transportation Worker Identity Credential (TWIC), Registered Traveler, and DHS cross-credentialing will take major steps toward realization.

Always one of our best-attended conference sessions, this is the place to get the facts and join the discussion about the pivotal role of identification in the war on terrorism.

IN-DEPTH SESSIONS WITHIN THIS SEMINAR INCLUDE:

Card Technology
(Technologies and Policies Track)
The card has been the dominant form factor for identification credentials for over 50 years. Now, with increased importance being placed on security and convenience, more sophisticated cards are playing more important roles in physical and virtual identity solutions. Today's ID cards, carrying computer chips and a host of other machine-readable technologies, are being deployed for enterprise security, homeland security and provision of government services.

This session is the place to find out if the technology, standards, and infrastructure are ready for prime time in your application.
