*Please join us for what is sure to be a great webcast from UMA!* *What: *Access Management 2.0: UMA for the Enterprise *When:* March 20th 8am PT / 11am ET / your local http://bit.ly/1o2sfZY *Where:* Webcast *Register here: *http://bit.ly/1o0xpFU <http://t.co/TWpRJnYgrj> The User-Managed Access (UMA) protocol was originally meant to help individuals gain control over Internet data sharing. But its notion of authorization-as-a-service also has relevance to modern enterprises that must secure APIs and other web resources in fast-changing cloud environments. Join us on March 20 for a webinar to learn how UMA enables a new kind of access management solution: one that's friendly to open web APIs, mobile apps, SaaS models, OAuth security, OpenID Connect (and SAML) identity, and even XACML policy. In less than an hour you'll hear from members of the Kantara Initiative UMA Work Group and from planned guest speakers representing CA, Cloud Identity Ltd, Gluu, and ForgeRock. You'll learn about: - The realities and challenges of access control in the modern mobile/cloud environment - UMA's unique value and benefits for enterprises - UMA's relationship with other identity, authentication, and authorization protocols - UMA's readiness as a draft standard and what's around the corner - Next steps you can take to evaluate and use UMA and get involved Best Regards, Joni Brennan Kantara Initiative | Executive Director voice:+1 732-226-4223 email: joni @ kantarainitiative.org Building Trusted Identity Ecosystems - It takes a village!

There seems to be a temporary Wiki/Confluence outage on our Kantara site. Atlassian (the software vendor for Confluence) is also experiencing a major outage right now - which might indicate that we are not the only ones with Confluence issues right, now. I will send an update as soon as I have more info.
