Deltek Supports: AFCEA Next Generation Authentication and Identity Management

This August, the Administration’s National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace (NSTIC) reached another milestone in the effort to create a common identity infrastructure for the Internet. A new pilot program from the US Postal Service promises a time when citizens will soon be able to access everything from federal health benefits to student loan information using a single ID and password. The project will create a cloud-service hub that allows agencies to accept citizen log-in credentials from private or public identity providers certified by the Federal Identity, Credential and Access Management (ICAM) initiative. The Federal Cloud Credential Exchange (FCCX) is one of three NSTIC initiatives that encourage the private sector to take the lead in developing a secure identity ecosystem to support the growing demand for online transactions.

Join AFCEA Bethesda on November 7 at the Bethesda North Marriott and Conference Center for “Next Generation Authentication and Identity Management – From Cloud to Mobile,” an executive breakfast to discuss challenges faced by agencies as they transition to the next generation of identity and access management.

Learning objectives:

What impact do new technologies such as cloud computing and mobility have on ICAM programs and implementation of a federated infrastructure?
How do agencies make authentication and access control user friendly and secure for the mobile worker?
How will moving identity management to the cloud impact the implementation of HSPD-12, particularly in the area of PIV credentials as the common means of authentication?
How do agencies enable secure use of APIs to reduce – if not eliminate – the probability of the wrong person obtaining access to secure information?
How do agencies integrate usable, efficient and effective ways of accessing the cloud without making it onerous to the citizen?
