Gartner Identity & Access Management Summit, 3-4 March 2010, London

Whoever your users are - your workforce, your business partners, your online customers - managing their digital identities and their access to your systems is critical - and this is the core focus of identity and access management (IAM). The Gartner 4th Annual Identity and Access Management Summit in EMEA addresses the challenges facing IAM programs and professionals tasked with making them work.

Prepare for the Best: The IAM-Enabled Business

As businesses and institutions mature, they must be able to manage volatile, rapid change; to establish effective formal governance; and to provide accountability through transparency. IAM has the potential to enable this evolution, but must itself evolve. Thus it's time to ensure that your IAM program is firmly founded on business priorities and principles, to construct a sound IAM architecture, and to identify how IAM practices and processes can be improved to unlock the true engine of success - people.

The Gartner Identity & Access Management Summit will help you to exploit the full potential of new and future IAM investments, to fully realize their risk-management and governance benefits and their direct business value.

Two NEW Tracks to follow for 2010

Track One: Build Firm Foundations

This track focuses on the fundamental building blocks of IAM programs, on the pressing business needs, on the core IAM technologies, and on the ways that existing technologies across the enterprise can meet IAM needs (sweat your assets!).

Track Two: Anticipate Future Opportunities

This track focuses on the emerging role of IAM as a business-focused discipline and the potential direct business value of IAM, on the emerging IAM technologies (cool vendors and hot products!), and on the inter-relationships between IAM and other processes and technologies.
