Gus Tepper of The First American Corporation states: ur compliance and information security efforts demand that we manage user entitlements and identity access across our entire enterprise and not just within individual applications. We selected Securent EMS because of its compliance with the XACML standard and its ability to provide us with policy-driven access controls that have the granularity, consistency, scalability and flexibility we need across our global enterprise which states that traditional identity management approaches fall short in many regards. Other than Lori Rowland of the Burton Group, I haven't heard many others talk about the limitations of current identity management products in the marketplace. I wonder if Pat Patterson and Don Bowen would be willing to blog about where identity management products fall short and when an enterprise should consider entitlements management?

I bet no more than 1% of attendees to this conference will actually be from a large enterprise
