SE Radio 593: Eric Olden on Identity Orchestration

Eric Olden talks with host Giovanni Asproni
about identity orchestration, a software approach for managing
distributed identity and access management (IAM) and integrating
multiple identity systems or providers (IDPs) to make them look
like a single system from a user perspective. The episode starts
with a refresher in identity and access management, then
introduces identity orchestration and some of the challenges it
helps to address, such as integrating disparate identity
management systems after company mergers or acquisitions;
managing identities in situations where some of the IAM systems
are unreachable; and implementing more secure identity management
in legacy applications. Brought to you by IEEE Computer Society
