his colleague Patrick O'Kane, chief architect of Unisys Identity and

Microsoft to Demonstrate Federated
Identity Using Web Services
05/25/2004 11:30 PMMicrosoft Corp., together with six of the industry's leading identity
management vendors, today previewed interoperable federated identity
management solutions based on the Web services architecture (WS-*).
Software companies IBM Corp., Netegrity Inc., Oblix Inc., OpenNetwork
Technologies, Ping Identity Corp., RSA Security Inc. and Microsoft
have successfully concluded work demonstrating how their identity
management technologies interoperate using the Web Services Federation
(WS-Federation) specification, part of the WS Security set of
specifications. In his Tech•Ed keynote address today, Andrew Lees,
corporate vice president for Server and Tools Marketing at Microsoft,
showed how federated identity management based on WS-Federation and
the WS-* architecture will simplify the work of IT professionals as
they seek to cut the cost and complexity of passing identity
credentials across security and organization boundaries in a Web
services environment.
Legal Issues Facing Spam, Popups And
Spyware
Legal Issues Facing Spam, Popups And
Spyware
01/03/2005 06:04 AMIt appears that politicians are increasingly paying attention to
internet "evils" along the lines of spyware, spam and popups. In all
cases, these are instances where the openness of the network has been
abused, creating certain problems. However, it's not clear that any
of these legislative solutions are likely to do any good. We already
pointed out how
ineffec
tive CAN SPAM has been, but a few interesting things happened over
the weekend in the areas of popups and spyware. First, a Utah court
ruled that
pop up
ads were not covered by an anti-spam law in that state. The law
in question is no longer in effect, so it doesn't really matter -- but
it does suggest that the idea of using "unsolicited" email legislation
against other forms of "unsolicited" advertising is unlikely to get
very far. The news that's getting the most attention, however, is
California's decision to
pass
anti-spyware legislation that would give out fines for spyware
purveyors. The
text of the actual law is worth
reading, as it's clear that a fair amount of thought went into it.
However, it's not entirely clear it will do much to stop spyware.
First, the sneakiest forms of spyware have been very careful to hide
who is really responsible for the products -- meaning, they're likely
to successfully remain hidden from any lawsuits. The just slightly
more legitimate adware variant of spyware, on the other hand, has
always been more about social engineering than any
technical
trickery. That is, they bury the permissions in a ton of language so
that no one is really sure what they're agreeing to. Assuming this
continues, these firms will be able to claim that they presented the
end user with a choice, and those end users agreed to move ahead with
the installation.

because its legacy lives on into the New Year. Still, each new year
brings hope for a better life and to mark this hope we make New Year's
resolutions - vows to better ourselves in some way. Last January, I
offered three possible resolutions for the identity management
industry - let's take a look at how well they were kept.

"Amidst the public ballyhoo about how rampant P2P piracy is costing
the music business its very life (gasp! NO!), BMI announced it collected a record
level of revenue and royalty payout to its artist members. From
their press release: "BMI has reported revenues of $673 million for
the 2004 fiscal year, an increase of nearly $43 million, 6.8% over the
prior year. Royalties of more than $573 million were distributed to
our songwriters, composers and music publishers, an increase of $40
million or 7.5% from the previous year, and the most ever paid by an
American PRO." Another interesting tidbit: "During the period
1995-2004, BMI had an average annual revenue growth rate of 9%..." If
I read this right, BMI has been reporting solid growth over the last
nine years, which makes me question the industry's claims about P2P.
Either P2P ate into their growth (not mentioned), they found a way to
cope with it (plausible), or it may actually help music sales.
Whatever. Reminds me a bit of a spec I did for a life-insurance
company's radio ad: Money

06/07/2004 10:25 AMThe Royal Bank of Canada is still trying to
sort out the mess from last week when
their computer "upgrade" appears to have stopped processing
transactions, meaning that money that should have gone into accounts
(especially direct deposit payroll checks) never showed up. The bank
won't explain exactly what went wrong, though they admit that's
because everyone who understands it has been busy working on the fix.
Still, this does make you pause and wonder about how much we rely on
computer systems to function properly to go about our daily lives.
