*****************************************************************

* Are you concerned about how your campus will comply with the growing
  number of state and federal privacy requirements?
* Are you struggling to keep up with the increase in the number of
  Applications and ensuring that their security and access requirements
  adhere to our policies?
* Are you concerned about using outsourced services and the need to
  supply personally identifiable information to third-party providers
  for access control?

Attend the Campus Architecture and Middleware Planning(CAMP) workshop,
"Bridging Security and Identity Management," February 13-15, in Tempe,
Arizona, to learn more about practical approaches for addressing these
questions. We will explore issues surrounding the three themes of
privacy and compliance, threat and risk mitigation, and scalability,
each of which requires a bridge between security and identity
management. Read more about the program scope at
