Identity and access management (IAM) is arguably the broadest issue in
IT security. There are few other single concepts that impact as widely
on so many areas as that of managing identity in an enterprise business
context.

The state of cybersecurity today is grave. When we talk about the type
of damage that we are taking on a daily basis, it's actually very, very
extreme and we have heavy losses that we are experiencing. Just in the
area of cyber crime, we are losing tremendous identities every day to
identity theft that is being sold to individuals who are taking great
advantage of cyber-criminal activity.

A sleepy summer in Washington in regards to cybersecurity?
Forgetaboutit! From 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue to Capitol Hill, to the
suburban outskirts of the capital, administration officials,
Congressional staffers and IT security bureaucrats are pushing ahead on
legislation and policy regarding the securing of government IT and
protect citizens online privacy.
