Day: December 13, 2004

I asked Stefan Brands, who has both an academic and practical interest in identity systems, to put together a reading list of interesting papers and books on identity-related issues that we should take a look at. And I&#39m sure most of us will enjoy seing what he has set out for us… I&#39ve posted it here. Maybe one of these will be the perfect “holiday gift” for your spouse (or your spouse&#39s spouse).

Everyone needs to go here to read this interchange between Bob Blakely and Carl Ellison on authentication, authorization and identity theft.

Bob Blakely is Chief Scientist at IBM Tivoli in the security area and a stellar presence.  And Carl Ellison has long been a powerful and original force in the “speaks for” theory that now shapes the claims-based world – a key inventor of SDSI and SPKI.
