WSO2 to Deliver Webinar on Single Sign-On Best Practices Using WSO2 Identity Server
Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) October 17, 2013 -- Increasingly, businesses are taking advantage of single sign-on (SSO) access control to handle complex integrations with multiple application systems. However, IT professionals often face SSO implementation challenges when working with heterogeneous systems and multiple security standards. To help address these challenges, WSO2 will present a technical webinar on how IT architects and developers can effectively select and implement the right SSO technology using WSO2 Identity Server.
The one-hour technical session, “Single Sign-On Using WSO2 Identity Server,” will run Wednesday, October 23, from 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. PDT. For more information, visit http://wso2.com/library/webinars/2013/10/single-sign-on-using-wso2-identity-server.
Single Sign-On for Complex Integrations
The webinar will explore different SSO patterns and highlight implementation best practices using WSO2 Identity Server. The session first will review the importance of SSO for enterprise applications, covering various SSO technologies. It then will examine how WSO2 Identity Server enables enterprise architects and developers to improve the user experience by reducing identity provisioning time, guaranteeing secure online interactions, and delivering a reduced SSO environment. Additionally, the webinar will discuss how to select a particular SSO technology based on a scenario.
Leading the webinar will be Selvaratnam Uthaiyashankar (Shankar), WSO2 vice president of engineering. Shankar focuses on the WSO2 Stratos platform as a service (PaaS) software and Carbon enterprise middleware kernel. He also has worked on the interoperability of Axis2/C and the WSO2 Web Services Framework. Additionally, Shankar has provided technology consulting on customer engagements, including cloud, enterprise service bus, governance, and mobile integration solutions.
