An Introduction to Commercial Identity and Access Management Solutions

This chapter exhibits an objective third party evaluation on a number of commercially available IAM solutions, including Microsoft Identity Manager & Microsoft Azure Active Directory, IBM Security Identity Manager and Cloud Identity Service, Okta, Centrify, Ping Identity, Oracle Identity and Access Management, and Salesforce.com. A summary of the functionalities and capabilities exhibited by those commercially available IAM solutions will be presented in this chapter to assist the readers in selecting and evaluating contemporary IAM systems for both the Cloud and on-premises environments.

KeyCloak is an open source identity and access management arrangement focused on present day applications and administrations. It makes it simple to protect applications and administrations with next to zero code. The identity and access management server component provides centralized user management, authentication, and single sign-on identity brokering user federation, social login, client adapters, an admin console, and an account management console for the applications. With KeyCloak, the user management and authentication functions may be integrated with an externally managed system, such as LDAP or active directory. KeyCloak provides single sign-on infrastructure for authentication and session management. In this paper, the authors present an overview of KeyCloak that gives the objectives and features of KeyCloak and comparisons between the servers. They also present protocols of KeyCloak. Finally, benefits of KeyCloak are defined.

Abstract The Innovation Bank is a novel business method that integrates and capitalizes knowledge assets. The Innovation Bank is an application of game theory, actuarial math and a simple native “proof-of-stake” blockchain. The system aims to unify the global engineering and scientific disciplines by incentivizing individual practitioners to form knowledge asset networks among each other by producing claims and validations related to observable and measurable events. Each claim and associated validation forms a node in a network for which each participant is awarded a cryptographic token memorializing earned stake (equity) in the system. A secure, validated, and decentralized knowledge repository and access management system is secured by a simple native blockchain. Revenue is generated through the liquidation of earned tokens on an external market to third parties seeking access to network metadata for business intelligence. The intrinsic value of the network grows as the number of participants increases. As participation increases, the quantity and quality of the transaction records also increases. Third-party buyers may include banks, insurance companies, and private enterprise.

Cilj ovog rada jeste da se obezbedi sigurna komunikacija u vidu razmene mail-a dva koris­nika preko Web aplikacije i Microsoft Outlook-a, klijenta Microsoft Exchange-a. Za ovu komunikaciju potrebno je registrovati novu aplikaciju na Microsoft Azure portalu koja ima identifikatore neophodne za dobavljanje Bearer tokena. Bearer token sluzi da se klijent, u ovom slučaju razvijena Web aplikacija, autentifikuje servisu. Klijent je tada u mogućnosti da, preko Microsoft Graph RESTful Web API-a, potraži sve korisnike određene grupe registrovane na Azure Active Directory-u i pošalje mail odabranom korisniku.

Abstract My response to the commentaries focuses on four issues: (1) the diversity both within and between cultures of the many different faces of obligation; (2) the possible evolutionary roots of the sense of obligation, including possible sources that I did not consider; (3) the possible ontogenetic roots of the sense of obligation, including especially children's understanding of groups from a third-party perspective (rather than through participation, as in my account); and (4) the relation between philosophical accounts of normative phenomena in general – which are pitched as not totally empirical – and empirical accounts such as my own. I have tried to distinguish comments that argue for extensions of the theory from those that represent genuine disagreement.

Over the past few years it has become apparent in our multi-user facility that the computer system and software supplied in 1985 with our CAMECA CAMEBAX-MICRO electron microprobe analyzer has the greatest potential for improvement and updating of any component of the instrument. While the standard CAMECA software running on a DEC PDP-11/23+ computer under the RSX-11M operating system can perform almost any task required of the instrument, the commands are not always intuitive and can be difficult to remember for the casual user (of which our laboratory has many). Given the widespread and growing use of other microcomputers (such as PC’s and Macintoshes) by users of the microprobe, the PDP has become the “oddball” and has also fallen behind the state-of-the-art in terms of processing speed and disk storage capabilities. Upgrade paths within products available from DEC are considered to be too expensive for the benefits received. After using a Macintosh for other tasks in the laboratory, such as instrument use and billing records, word processing, and graphics display, its unique and “friendly” user interface suggested an easier-to-use system for computer control of the electron microprobe automation. Specifically a Macintosh IIx was chosen for its capacity for third-party add-on cards used in instrument control.

Abstract This article explains the development and use of ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes, CPT procedure codes, and HCPCS supply/device codes. Examples of appropriate coding combinations, and Coding rules adopted by most third party payers are given. Additionally, references for complete code lists on the Web and a list of voice-related CPT code edits are included. The reader is given adequate information to report an evaluation or treatment session with accurate diagnosis, procedure, and supply/device codes. Speech-language pathologists can accurately code services when given adequate resources and rules and are encouraged to insert relevant codes in the medical record rather than depend on billing personnel to accurately provide this information. Consultation is available from the Division 3 Reimbursement Committee members and from [email protected] .

Abstract. Previous forgiveness research has mostly focused on victims’ forgiveness of transgressors, and offenders’ post-transgression efforts intended to promote victim forgiveness have been collectively branded as apology. However, decisions concerning forgiveness frequently occur outside of dyadic contexts, and the unique roles of repentance and atonement in determining forgivability of offenders, despite their preeminence in theology and law, have received little empirical attention. Across five experiments ( N = 938), we show that repentance and atonement independently influence third-party perception of forgivability for a variety of harms, even in disinterested contexts. Our findings provide a systematic examination of decisions about forgivability disentangled from direct personal involvement, demonstrating that components of apology known to facilitate forgiveness in victims also increase perceived forgivability from unharmed observers.
