Title: Identity Management and Federation Services in the Cloud

Speaker: Steve Tillery, SVP Engineering and CTO, Fischer International Identity

Abstract: This presentation discusses how Fischer’s identity management technology is being used to enable Federation in both public- and private-cloud environments. Fischer will review their integration between Shibboleth and their cloud based service offerings, their virtual IDP service, show how Institutions can participate in federations like InCommon without operating an on-premise federation infrastructure, and review a sample of IAM/Federation projects within Higher Education.

Speaker Bio: Steve Tillery directs all product development and engineering activities at Fischer International Identity and is the visionary behind Fischer's cloud-based and on-premise identity management technology. After joining Fischer in 1986, Steve developed many first-to-market solutions including the industry-standard WatchDog security and TAO mainframe collaboration solutions. Prior to joining Fischer, Mr. Tillery held various engineering and engineering management positions at Booz Allen Hamilton, Midwest Stock Exchange and Mobil.

 

Thank you,

Valerie
