Identity Management Conference, 27-28 October, Washington, DC

About the Conference

"Worldwide Identity Solutions for Online Security, Privacy and Trust"

Policy leaders and program managers are confronted daily by major security, privacy and trust challenges from both policy and implementation perspectives. Identity management, access and associated security technologies are critical components of e-government. Open standards and their integration across emerging federated infrastructures are beginning to bring both order and solutions to these challenges. Innovative identity solutions are being implemented in collaborative efforts between governments and private sector organizations today, including major federated identity initiatives, national approaches to secure online transactions, new privacy models, and focused efforts to secure health IT, smart grid, and cloud computing environments. Much can be learned from these implementations.

The two-day Identity Management Conference provides the perfect forum for representatives from governments and industry around the world to come together to learn and share information about these important and relevant technology developments, implementations, risk management challenges and success stories.

Keynote speakers include:

  • Ms. Mary Ellen Callahan, Chief Privacy Officer, U.S. Department of Homeland Security 
  • Mr. Timothy H. Edgar, Director of Privacy and Civil Liberties, Cybersecurity Directorate, National Security Staff, The White House (invited)
  • Mr. Robert Madelin, the European Commission’s Director General for the Information Society and Media
