Holistic View of Identity Management Workshop

Content of Workshop

The workshop has been organised and will be held by Sun Microsystems.

Identity Management has multiple components. Identity Management means different things to different people and different people in a campus/institution care about different aspects of Identity Management. The full benefit of an Identity system can be realized only by taking a holistic view of the different aspects of Identity Management, even if they are not all implemented at the same time.
