The Yin and Yang of Governance for XACML I chuckled when I read Ian Glazer’s blog post, “A Chronic Identity Pain.” Ian referred to himself as “an old provisioning guy” – being a few years his senior, it made me think, “Does that make me an old-old provisioning guy?” Having said that, I do consider [...]
