Robert Richardson from the Computer Security Institute gave a presentation on identity management systems at a conference session. There are many different identity standards being developed that could help users manage their online identities, such as OpenID, CardSpace, and SAML. However, it is difficult to determine which solutions are most important and how to discuss them in a way that facilitates understanding best practices. The presentation aimed to provide a framework for discussing digital identity management and determining the most useful solutions.
