Humanize Access with Role Management
Two weeks ago I hosted two sessions on roles and role management at a user group in London. In my experience, folks tend to be split into two distinct groups on the topic of roles; they've either implemented or are in the process of implementing some type of RBAC solution, or they're still struggling to understand what roles really are in the context managing access. Between these two groups, most people tend to fall in the latter. The benefits of using roles to manage access are huge, but getting started can be daunting.
As part of the Everyday Identity webinar series, Nick Crown, Product Line Manager for Sun's Identity Administration and Compliance products, will be hosting a webinar next week on this very topic. The goal of the webinar (and also the title) is to "Humanize Access with Role Management." Details below:
