Bonnell will be joined in the session by Chris Williams, Director of Consulting at ILANTUS Technologies, a provider of identity and access management solutions and services. The session will take place at 10:15 am on August 31 at the conference in San Francisco. The presentation will explore the problems presented by the proliferation of enterprise passwords and describe a three-step solution that combines enterprise single sign-on (ESSO) technology with identity provisioning and strong authentication. The integration of these three technologies simplifies user sign-on, enhances security, reduces help desk costs, eliminates the need for users to know or touch application passwords, facilitates the identity mapping process for administrators, and simplifies deployment of smart cards and other strong authentication devices.

"This presentation reflects the rising awareness of the problems associated with the use of multiple application passwords as well as the established partnership between Passlogix and BMC Software in addressing the need for password management," Bonnell said.
