Topic:  Enabling Business Transformation with a Strong Identity Foundation

At the turn of the century, our users were forced to live in two worlds.  Corporations had heavily invested in on premise applications, with a network security architecture designed to heavily defend the perimeter, and trust everything within.  Mobile users were limited to what few applications security would punch a hole in the firewall for, typically email.  Device and user identity were merged - a user would log into their Active Directory domain from their machine, and they are granted access based on group membership and access control list. Mobile was a second-class citizen, and then hosted applications began to take hold.  Enterprise applications like Salesforce and Box paved the way by demonstrating the value that large-scale hosting providers can bring. Now, every company is global.  Employees are always on the move, whether for work or personal travel, and they need access to their data from wherever they are, on whatever device they are using.
