GTISC Industry Leaders Series presents Tony Rutkowski, Vice President for Regulatory Affairs, VeriSign, Inc.
"Next Gen Identity Management for Networks: Old Problems, New Challenges"
This lecture describes a significant initiative of almost non-stop global activity over the past year that brought together a diverse array of people and communities to explore and map the uncharted new universe of Identity Management. The "map" consists of four reports that attempt
to structure a Next Generation Identity Management universe and chart a destiny through a set of requirements and framework(s).
The objective of this endeavor falls into the category of "grand challenge," but is an essential one for some reasonable level of cybersecurity as well as a broad ensemble of government, business, and consumer needs, including the holy grail of nomadicity - anytime,
anywhere, using any device, by anyone.
This lecture also poses a potentially controversial implementation hypothesis that reaches back more than a hundred years to early open nomadic radio-based network infrastructures, and suggests that similar regulatory and global cooperative agreements serve as useful models.
