Category: Software and Web Development, Security

Tags: federated identity, outsource, soa, infrastructure, management

Overview Business requirements seem to accelerate on a daily basis. Leading companies remain ready to respond to customer whims, outsource business processes, improve internal controls, and respond to changing regulations. Legacy IT infrastructure simply wasn't designed to fill nowadays business requirements but it is ludicrous to suggest "Ripping and replacing" valuable assets. This paper concludes that; SOA can provide the necessary application services; SOA needs Federated Identity Management (FIM); IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager can make the federated identity management vision a reality.
