This is my first blog post to the Security Management blog since I joined CA Technologies at the end of November 2010 as the General Manager for the Security business focused on Identity and Access Management (IAM). I'll do my best to make sure it's not the only blog I ever post. Although those of you who monitor this blog know our business - Identity and Access Management - I feel compelled to affirm our commitment to the IAM business given the recently announced agreement to divest the area of security that focuses on anti-virus, anti-spyware, gateway security, and host-based intrusion prevention to Updata Partners. CA Technologies remains deeply committed to the Security business focused on IAM and to the continued development of...

In a number of recent blogs I have discussed the emergence of an online identity verification marketplace -- most recently in a blog about the just completed NSTIC launch. Of course the emergence of the marketplace depends on someone paying for the services received. No payment, no marketplace. So who should pay for identity services in this new marketplace? Today, at least online, organizations and individuals aren't used to paying for this type of service, so it is an area that all participants need to come to terms with for this marketplace really to take off. Let's first review the parties that are involved in such a marketplace so that we can better consider the question of who should pay. First there is the user, for whom ultimately...

On the 10 th through the 13 th of May I will be attending the Kuppinger Cole European Identity Conference where CA Technologies are a Premier Sponsors. I love the fact that the Kuppinger Cole also runs the Cloud 2011 conference in conjunction with the Identity event. It means that the content and debates covered at the conference make it a key event for anyone considering the topic of cloud or Identity and Access Management. On Tuesday the 10 th May, my colleague Henk Van Der Heijden will present a key note session on the topic of risk based authentication and access control . On Wednesday 11 th May, I will chair a panel discussion on the subject Business Driven Security for SAP Environments. The panel will consist of senior thought leaders...

Infosec veterans probably remember (with a smirk) how Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) was heralded as the next "big thing" in information security at the dawn of the 21 st century. As often happens with technology, the reality did not live up the hype and PKI never experienced a level of success equivalent to its hype. For me, I knew PKI was in trouble when it became increasingly common for people to refer to it as a "PKI Infrastructure" proof that many did not even know what the acronym stood for! While PKI may have under-achieved, certain PKI components are still extremely important. One of these is key management. In fact, the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol which basically created PKI was created to solve the serious...
