Network Operating Systems White Papers

Taking Authorization to the Next Level

Overview In this short, audio-enhanced PowerPoint presentation, Gerry Gebel, Vice President and Service Director for IdPS at Burton Group, discusses the need for developing finer-grained access control (a.k.a. micro-entitlements or entitlement management) within the enterprise.

Because many enterprises are developing an SOA architecture, developers are calling for shareable, reusable identity services. And because application developers are in great need of creating a more consistent enforcement of data driven policies and tighter security, Gebel considers the benefits behind "externalizing" authorization from individual applications.
