Mike Neuenschwander Joins Mycroft as General Manager, Strategy Practice


NEW YORK --(Business Wire)-- In a move involving one of the country's foremost thought leaders in Identity and Access Management (IAM), former Burton Group Vice President and Research Director, Mike Neuenschwander, has joined Mycroft Inc. as General Manager, Strategy Practice.



A popular speaker, writer and blogger, Neuenschwander is widely known and respected throughout the IAM industry for his leading-edge research and consultative insight. Market-leading software firms, including Microsoft, Oracle and Sun, often rely on his input to set strategic direction, as do many other of the world's largest companies.

Among his numerous accomplishments, Neuenschwander has received considerable attention for his work on next-generation identity services such as "limited liability persona" (LLP), and for his pioneering use of XML and middleware in directories. He has served as a frequent keynote speaker at the Burton Group's annual Catalyst Conference for enterprise IT leaders.


"Mike Neuenschwander represents one of the most sought-after talents in the world of identity and access management," says Terry Jost, Chief Executive Officer for Mycroft. "His ability to both envision and help shape the future of end-to-end IAM solutions will prove invaluable to Mycroft and our clients. He immediately expands Mycroft's already-broad IAM strategic services."

Neuenschwander's decision to join Mycroft is rooted in what he sees as the evolving - and essential - role implementers play in successful IAM projects.

"All of my experience has made me realize just how critical it is for companies to partner with a skilled implementation firm in order to achieve their identity management goals," says Neuenschwander. "By joining Mycroft, I'm ideally situated to participate in, and influence, that part of the process."

Neuenschwander will continue to write his popular blog, which will soon be accessible through Mycroft's website, at www.Mycroftinc.com.
