But that's conventions to help highlight important points, simply not the case, especially in the IT universe. provide supporting evidence, or advise you of our obvious bias. Look for the following conventions: As you well know, the world of identity and access management (IAM) is one of constant change, shrinking Real-world example – Stories of real organizations, facing deadlines, minuscule budgets, overtaxed staff and unmerciful real challenges, and really solving their problems (often the names have been changed to protect the innocent) regulations. Unfortunately, the historical approach to IAM involves piecing together “half solutions,” in hope that tomorrow’s solutions will address real-world needs. Facts & figures – Research-based information that supports principles discussed throughout the book This short book evaluates what IAM for the real world would, should and can look like.

All rights reserved. iv Chapter 1 Identity and access management for your world … not someone else’s The words of David Byrne in this mid-80’s anthem perfectly capture the sentiment of many organizations trying to keep up with the ever-changing IT security landscape. The more we try to keep up with the latest threat, or apply security to the latest technology, the more it seems like an elusive destination. While the Talking Heads try to strike an optimistic tone in an increasing complex world, the future is definitely not certain. There’s the proliferation of new operating systems. Then there’s the explosion of an increasingly mobile workforce and new devices outside of the comfortable control “Well, we know where we're goin' of the organization. We have our old friends— stifling regulations such as SOX, HIPAA, PCI, and many more likely to come. And, of course, there’s the next mega trend that But we don't know where we've been everyone seems to be talking about, such as cloud, BYOD, big data, and the Internet And we know what we're knowin' of things. It seems the only constant is change. We long for the days when security was as simple as a password change every 90 But we can't say what we've seen days, following a few complexity rules. User access? That was easy. All you had to do was grant the secure access users needed to do their jobs on a handful of And we're not little children applications and one, maybe two, platforms. And we know what we want But password management, user access and security are far, far more complex in today’s IT reality. The Talking Heads lyrics seem to echo the desire of many IT pros in And the future is certain dealing with these complex issues… “Give us time to work it out.” Give us time to work it out” IAM fundamental concepts There are many major aspects of IT security worth discussing. But we’d like to focus on just one—identity and access management (IAM). IAM is concerned with some fundamental concepts that can be summed up as the four “A”s: Talking Heads, • Authentication – Entails ensuring that the person logging on to a system is who Road to Nowhere, they say they are. This is usually done with usernames and passwords that, when 1985 combined, give you some assurance of the authenticity of the person logging on. • Authorization – Involves the parameters placed around what a user is allowed to do once they are authenticated. Authorization is concerned not with who you are, but why you are logging on and what you are allowed to do. Authorization can be influenced by a range of variables. These can include everything from file and application permission and sharing, to very finely defined access rules based on role, location and even circumstance. • Administration – In order to enable someone to authenticate and to be correctly 1.1 Identity and Access Management for the Real World | 2014 Dell.

All rights reserved. 1.2 authorized, there are many managerial tasks that must be performed on an applications that add to this complexity in the first place. Most applications also require account, often called “provisioning.” Provisioning can literally be thousands a directory and application-specific ways to satisfy the four “A”s. of tasks designed to achieve a very elusive balance between security and user productivity. Administration also includes role management or defining and Inevitably, each “A” is executed independently on dozens, hundreds or even thousands managing the roles that place the right people (or accounts and identities) in of systems. It’s not uncommon for a single user to have multiple passwords. the right position to be correctly authorized. Finally, administration includes Each password represents another system where authentication, authorization, managing passwords for complexity, frequency of change and ease of reset. administration and audit are performed with no regard for the other systems in the enterprise. Analysts estimate a typical user can have as many as 14 passwords. • Audit – Includes those activities that help “prove” that authentication, authorization and administration are done at a sufficient level of security, Today’s IT security complexity is illustrated very effectively by statistics measured by a set of standards.

  • Comedic Devices HUMOROUS LITERARY DEVICES About Comedic Devices
    Comedic Devices HUMOROUS LITERARY DEVICES About Comedic Devices We have all heard of literary devices in literature. Since elementary school, we have studies things like plot, setting, denouement, and conflict. We have even studied literary devices that fall specifically under the umbrella of figurative language: metaphor, simile, allegory, allusion. Did you know that there are certain literary devices whose purpose is to enhance the comedic aspects of literature? We will be looking at several of these devices and evaluating our text, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, for both examples of comedic devices and to explore how these devices enhance the comedy of Shakespeare’s play. Repetition Repetition in comedic writing is a bit different than repetition in poetry or prose. In comedy, repetition can also be referred to as a callback. It occurs when a statement or a theme is recalled as the punch line to a joke or at the close of a scene. Repetition is also considered a “classic example of the tension and release …where repetition is used to set up a modus operandi and build tension before [a solution] provides the resolving juxtaposition.” (Comedic Device) Example: Picture a comedic scene in which a wife and husband are getting ready to go to work. The wife judiciously reminds the husband that “It’s cold outside, so grab a sweater.” Throughout their morning routine, the wife keeps reminding the husband to grab a sweater. When the wife drives by her husband on his bicycle (on his way to work) we see the icicles hanging from his nose and his face and ears red with cold.

  • GHOSTBUSTERS III Treatment by Adrian Stephens
    GHOSTBUSTERS III Treatment by Adrian Stephens GHOSTBUSTERS III LOGLINE: On the verge of taking their business nationally as a franchise, a tragic accident convinces the Ghostbusters team to close their doors for good, sending their Ecto Containment System (ECS) to Columbia University for permanent storage. Seventeen years later, a genius scientist, Edward Tully, and his half-baked best friend, Oscar Barrett, invent a chamber that attaches to the ECS, allowing ghosts to materialize in a likeness of their previous selves to communicate with the living. When Oscar begins selling tickets to people wanting to communicate with their deceased loved ones, a ghost from their past begins haunting them in an effort to communicate with them. They must convince Dr. Stantz and Dr. Spengler to put their reservations aside and help catch the ghost and send him through the Conversion Chamber to learn what the ghost wants. There, they learn that the spirit world is restless and a great danger awaits. Stantz and Spengler will need to reunite the Ghostbusters and recruit a new team to take on this great threat. Act One Five years after Ghostbusters II, DR. RAY STANTZ, DR. EGON SPENGLER, DR. PETER VENKMAN and WINSTON ZEDDEMORE are poised to take their Ghostbusters business national, franchising locations throughout the United States. Arriving at Ghostbusters headquarters after their most recent capture their secretary, JANINE TULLY (formerly Melnitz, now married to LOUIS TULLY), informs the team that Louis (also the staff tax attorney) is on his way back from Los Angeles, and that Ghostbusters is ready to begin the franchising process.

  • Ready Player One Jump by SJ-Chan V 1.2
    Ready Player One Jump By SJ-Chan v 1.2 The year is 2039 CE. The place, Earth, in the midst of an ongoing energy crisis that sees rolling blackouts hitting major cities on a weekly, if not daily basis. It is a world in the grip of climate collapse, economic collapse, and even social collapse, with the areas between cities (what cities that haven’t been nuked out of existence) having largely descended into lawlessness and brigandage. You arrive the day before James Halliday, the richest man in the world, creator of The OASIS (The Ontologically Anthropocentric Sensory-Immersive Simulation), and owner of Gregarious Simulation Systems which owns and operates the OASIS, dies. As you awaken, you are treated to a video left behind by Halliday, setting forth the terms of his will and laying the framework for what will become the greatest Treasure Hunt the world has ever seen. The Challenge? Locate the three keys that open three gates, defeating all the obstacles and solving all the riddles to be the first to find Halliday’s Easter Egg. The Location? The OASIS, a 30 light-hour cube of virtual space that contains thousands of worlds and billions of players. The Prize? Controlling interest in Gregarious Simulation Systems, absolute dominion over the OASIS (which is the global economy), and 240 Billion USD. Halliday, who had no heirs, was a reclusive (borderline insane) programming savant, and was obsessed with the 1980s and the hunt requires knowledge of the movies, TV shows, comics, games, and music of the era. The world is a crapsack, but for the wretched masses of the planet Earth, the OASIS has become a refuge, a place where the weak are made strong, a place where you can be whoever you want to be, and where you can play all day for only 25 cents.
