[BOF Session] Fear and Loathing in IT Security

BOF @Lunch: Fear and Loathing in IT Security

We are pleased to announce the third in our series of special lunchtime BOF sessions.

Thursday, 11/19 Lunchtime

Wherever we look we find security threats that are made out to be the end of the world as we know it. The problem is that there is a lot of wolf-crying going on in this space.

  • Is this part of your job description or responsibilities?
  • How do you assess what threats are real?

  • How have security threats, real and hyped, affected the way you do your job?

Come join this discussion and let us know how you spot an overblown issue or an underappreciated threat and what you do about it.

[BOF Session] Claims-Based Identity

The PDC BOF team is excited to announce we’ve selected another Birds-of-a-Feather session. We will continue selecting sessions as the PDC09 approaches, so propose a session today!

Claims-Based Identity

Are you interested in or currently building out applications that use claims-based identity? Come join others who are also working on similar systems and discuss your successes and pain points with federated identity. Let’s share our experiences interoperating with other systems, using Windows Identity Foundation (formerly code named Geneva Framework) and other frameworks, and so on. Are you using information cards? What do you think of the new direction CardSpace is taking? I’m sure we’ll have a lively discussion!
