Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) April 17, 2012

2012 ETA Annual Meeting & Expo Identity Fraud, Inc. (IFI) (http://www.IdentityFraud.com) announces the availability of SB Core Protector, a combination of the Top 10 small business data theft risk management solutions for prevention, resolution and insurance resources. It provides five proactive layered security risk prevention components, three types of data theft insurance and two incident response services. Now small businesses nationwide have the ability to affordably secure the optimal solution for their various data risks. As criminals shift their attention to the SMB sector; data breach protection and insurance, business security, payment card compliance and small business identity theft solutions provided by companies such as Identity Fraud, Inc.will become essential for most small and medium sized businesses in the near future.

We are pleased to announce the release of our SB Core Protector programs at the ETA conference. The companies attending work with sensitive payment information and touch millions of merchants. Every business has a business identity, sensitive customer data, employees and compliance obligations. With the value of data being high and attracting thieves worldwide, protecting against data risks and identity crimes has become essential states Tom Widman, president and CEO of Identity Fraud, Inc.

Many companies keep sensitive personal information about customers or employees in their files. Having a sound security plan in place can help you meet your legal requirements to protect that sensitive information

While much of our focus here in Las Vegas remains on the risks and responses to the theft of payment card data, we are excited to broaden the discussion beyond PCI related obligations and underscore the need and opportunity to provide additional value. Our solutions complement and simply add more value to the industrys existing PCI compliance efforts, where we are able to provide more remedies to the various data risks we all have, whether or not we are PCI compliant. This includes broader protection for breach liabilities and the nations only comprehensive business identity fraud protection says Widman.

Dr. Larry Ponemon of the Ponemon Institute, states We recently conducted a Small Business Data Theft Risk Management study and the results were very telling. In summary, it indicated that over 20% of small businesses had already suffered a data breach. A general conclusion from the study was that small businesses do not have adequate measures or remedies in place to protect themselves. Small businesses generally lack the resources and expertise to fend off attacks as compared to larger firms. Additionally, an SMB having an attack or negligent error will experience problems that could prove catastrophic.

Every business has significant and real exposures to business identity fraud and separately, to data breach incidents involving customer information, trade secrets or other data assets. Although each involves a breach to data, to clarify the difference, a data breach is typically defined as the loss or theft of sensitive customer information, like an individuals name plus their Social Security Number (SSN), drivers license number, medical record or financial record/credit/debit card, which exposes the information to unauthorized use/fraud.

Dublin, OH (PRWEB) June 12, 2012

The Dot Net Factory LLC, developers of the EmpowerID Identity Management, Cloud Security, and Secure Workflow software suite, announced today that it has won a competitively bid project for one of the Pacific Northwests largest healthcare portals. The project scope includes enabling Single Sign-On technology for over 150,000 users that will connect to the portal via SAML, WS-Trust, WS-Federation and OAuth-based technology offered in EmpowerID, an Identity Management (IdM) platform being used in a hosted configuration to provide Identity as a Service (IDaaS).

With a single login to the portal, users from thousands of organizations will be automatically authenticated to 23 insurance partners who are securely federated to the EmpowerID-driven portal using a variety of SAML connections, including those offered by IBM, CA, Ping Identity, Microsoft and others. The portal will be a Cloud-based application built entirely from workflows created and running on the EmpowerID platform.

“We are excited to leverage the unique architecture of our EmpowerID Business Process Automation (BPA) platform to build the most powerful adaptible federation solution available. All Single Sign-On transactions pass through a unique set of EmpowerID login workflows where an organizations authentication rules can be applied, multiple strong authentication methods chained together, and identity attributes aggregated from connected directories, said Patrick Parker, CEO of The Dot Net Factory.

SAML, WS-Federation, WS-Trust, and OAuth SSO capabilities built into EmpowerIDs platform will be used by the health portal to drive hundreds of thousands of identities and millions of transactions for this high volume Cloud-based solution. The healthcare client has noted the extreme ease-of-use they have experienced in setting up federation trust relationships with dozens of different platforms.

EmpowerID is an entirely workflow-based platform built on a single codebase offering federated SSO as a licensed module as a component of the EmpowerID suite. EmpowerID ships with 370+ ready-to-use workflows covering everything from user provisioning to SAML-based SSO.

EmpowerID continues to lead the rapidly evolving Identity market with its broad versatility as both a workflow-based development platform and as a robust IdM solution. It can drive a very broad range of Cloud IdM tasks while also providing the core logic for robust new business applications.

“Clients building Cloud-based computing platforms need reliable, fast Identity Management that can centralize all key tasks related to managing and authenticating identities. EmpowerID has the ability to deliver in the largest of commercial spaces and meets the needs that legacy IdM platforms have difficulty solving, said Parker.

The Dot Net Factory’s EmpowerID platform is deployed and proven worldwide in many of the world’s leading healthcare, energy, banking, software development, manufacturing, regulatory, governmental and service organizations.

Love… Lust… Mistaken Identity… and a Fateful Glass of Water The Santa Fe Opera Presents Arabella Aug. 23

Posted on by

Santa Fe, New Mexico (PRWEB) August 18, 2012

Parents caught in a bad economy resort to deception to maintain respectability. Will their ruse spoil their daughters chances of happiness in love? The answer comes down to a single glass of water in Arabella, a sumptuous romantic comedy with an element of social commentary, as Richard Strauss returns to the Crosby Theatre after an absence of five years. Arabella charms with Strauss deft characterizations and soaring vocal lines especially soprano voices. Erin Wall, who sang the four heroines in the 2010 Tales of Hoffmann and Daphne in 2007, sings the title role, with Heidi Stober as her sister Zdenka. Sir Andrew Davis conducts. The presentation of Arabella by the Santa Fe Opera is set for 8 to 10:30 p.m., Thursday, August 23, 2012. This opera and the entire Santa Fe Opera 2012 line-up are featured on the SantaFe.com event calendar.

Synopsis

Composed by Richard Strauss

Sung in German with English and Spanish Opera Titles

Arabella is presented in association with the Canadian Opera Company.

Act I

Financially strapped but aristocratically entitled, the Waldners have raised their younger daughter, Zdenka, as a boy to cut the cost of her upbringing at least until her beautiful older sister is married. Posing as their son Zdenko, the girl wards off creditors as her mother consults a fortuneteller, who predicts an advantageous marriage for Zdenkas sister, Arabella. Once mother and older sister have withdrawn, the young officer Matteo enlists his friend Zdenkos help in courting Arabella; its that or suicide, he insists.

As Arabella returns from a stroll and dismisses her eager escort, its clear she is sought by many other suitors. Three Counts Elemer, Dominik and Lamoral have left gifts for her. Zdenka, who secretly loves Matteo, urges her to consider him, but Arabella feels that when the right candidate appears, shell know. Count Elemer calls on Arabella to go sleigh riding; as she leaves to change her outfit, she alerts Zdenka to a stranger peering up from the street below. Their father, Count Waldner, returns, upset by his many creditors and continuing bad luck at cards. But no sooner has he told his wife of his latest stratagem sending a letter and photo of Arabella to his wealthy old army buddy Mandryka than a caller also named Mandryka is announced. Nephew of the elder, deceased Mandryka, he read the letter and fell in love with Arabellas photograph. Now he has journeyed from his rich estates in Slavonia to the Waldners hotel suite in Vienna solely to lend Count Waldner money and seek his daughters hand in marriage.

Unaware of this bright new prospect, Arabella is despondent, wondering why no suitor seems right; perhaps the Coachmans Ball that evening will brighten her mood. She leaves with Zdenka for their sleigh ride.

Act II

In the anteroom outside the Coachmans Ball, Count Waldner introduces Mandryka to the Countess and Arabella; recognizing him as the young stranger she noticed earlier, Arabella is instantly drawn to him. Mandryka feels confirmed in his earlier feelings and confides in her, describing his estates, his young wifes death, and his countrys tradition of pledging troth with a glass of water a symbol of purity. Arabella reciprocates his love, but asks to attend the Ball as a last celebration of youth. When she is named its queen, Mandryka is thrilled and lavishes champagne and flowers on the attendees as Arabella bids farewell to her past suitors. Amid the heightened gaiety she does not notice the desperate Matteo seeking some sign of her affection or Zdenka, who presses a key into his hand, saying it is from Arabella and unlocks her bedroom. Inevitably, Mandryka overhears; disillusioned and angry, he abandons himself to wine-soaked recklessness until Count Waldner calms him and they return to the hotel.

Act III

Arabella returns from the Ball unaware that Matteo and has been in her bedroom, ostensibly with her. Only the absent Zdenka knows the truth. As Matteo tries to slip from the hotel unnoticed, he is baffled to find Arabella already in the lobby, cool and unresponsive; Mandryka, judging the situation as he arrives with the Waldners, urges the Count to demand satisfaction from Matteo. Finally Zdenka rushes in from upstairs. Still in her negligee, she confesses giving herself to Matteo prevent his suicide, and now, wracked by guilt, considers her own. But she is immediately forgiven by her parents and embraced by Matteo. They withdraw, leaving Arabella and Mandryka in silence. Arabella directs him to have a glass of water sent to her room, and then she, too, leaves. Knowing he doubted her, how will she feel about him now? Reappearing at the top of the stairs with her dignity intact and the water glass in her hand, Arabella rapturously reaffirms her love and their engagement.

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) May 14, 2012

The 3rd annual Privacy Identity Innovation conference (pii2012) opens today with a sold-out audience of over 250 participants. Taking place May 14-16 in downtown Seattle, pii2012 will kick off at 1:00pm today with a workshop on mobile app privacy sponsored by ACT. The workshop will be followed by the opening session of pii2012, a panel discussion featuring local consumers who will share their views on digital privacy and identity in a candid conversation hosted by CBS News technology analyst Larry Magid.

The theme of Privacy Identity Innovation is Building Trust in the Digital Age and pii2012 will explore how to protect sensitive information while enabling emerging business models and technologies.

The debate about how companies are handling personal information has grown more intense in recent months, with government officials in both the United States and Europe taking additional steps to try and protect consumer privacy. The White House recently recommended a Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights, and the European Union is days away from requiring companies to get consent from website visitors before storing advertising cookies on their devices.

Its the perfect time for this years conference to take place, said Privacy Identity Innovation co-founder and executive producer Natalie Fonseca. There are a lot of questions facing companies and consumers, and Privacy Identity Innovation is the only tech conference that focuses on where innovation is heading and how businesses can build trust with their users.

The pii2012 program features over 80 speakers from companies like Facebook, Microsoft, Google, Twitter, Personal, TRUSTe, PrivacyChoice, Spokeo, Intelius, Experian, Banjo and Disconnect. In addition, keynote speakers include authors Andrew Keen, whose new book Digital Vertigo comes out next week, and Allison Cerra who co-authored Identity Shift.

According to Privacy Identity Innovation co-founder Marc Licciardi, What makes pii2012 unique is that its not just for legal or policy experts. Its about involving entrepreneurs, developers, marketing professionals and even investors in the conversation.

Along with the keynotes and panel discussions, other highlights of pii2012 include the Innovator Spotlight program where a select group of entrepreneurs will demo their technologies on stage and the Technology Showcase product expo.

Sponsors for pii2012 include ACT, Google, Xbox 360, Cooley LLP, TRUSTe, Ensighten, Personal, Experian, TrueRep, GeekWire, IAB Europe, Internet Identity Workshop, LunaWeb, Data 2.0 Summit , Online Trust Alliance, OReilly Media, Privacy Camp, ProgrammableWeb, Rapleaf, TechAmerica, VentureBeat, WTIA and Women 2.0.

Radiant Logic Cuts Complexity Out of Identity Integration with New Virtual Directory Server : RadiantOne VDS 5.0 is First Use Case Driven and Task-Oriented Virtual Directory

Posted on by


NOVATO, Calif. (PRWEB) June 23, 2008

As the newest component of the RadiantOne Identity and Context Virtualization Platform, RadiantOne VDS 5.0 is designed to analyze the steps of identity integration, divide those steps into different tasks and provide tools to solve each task. The result is a wizard-based virtual directory focused on use cases and practical deployments, rather than just tools.

“We need to move the discussion of virtual directories beyond their pure technical capabilities, and focus more on how they radically simplify identity integration, which is one of the big challenges faced by all identity management teams,” said Felix Gaehtgens, senior analyst at Kuppinger Cole and Partners. “The technology has matured significantly over the years as more enterprises are adopting directory virtualization every day, and today’s deployments are focused to solve those integration challenges quickly and efficiently.” A February 2008 Forrester Research Report titled, Identity Management Market Forecast, estimates that the virtual directory market will grow from $ 13 million in 2006 to $ 113 million by 2014.

RadiantOne VDS 5.0 turns the complex process of identity integration into a simple, use case driven, point and click operation. “We are providing our customers with a field tested solution based on virtualization that is not only easy to deploy and risk free, but also the most complete on the market,” said Michel Prompt, CEO of Radiant Logic.

RadiantOne VDS 5.0 features a three-step wizard, designed to connect all backend sources to the virtual directory within minutes. Customers can quickly aggregate and/or integrate identity data from any data source and extend it with additional attributes for authorization. This version of RadiantOne VDS was specifically designed to simplify the process of consolidating and authenticating users from multiple Active Directory forests and domains, different databases and other identities sources. The Virtual Directory Server then leverages this identity information by making it appear as one common virtual LDAP v3 compliant directory that is fully compatible with SUN/RedHat/Netscape directories. This new release also includes a specific set of scenario/wizard driven templates for the deployment of CA SiteMinder, Web SSO, EMC/RSA ClearTrust and IBM TAM.

VDS 5.0 features include:

VDS Designer and Admin Console With new scenario-driven wizards, users can easily deploy various identity and access management tasks. Scenarios include web access management, Active Directory object and attribute mapping to SunOne (or other LDAP v3 directory server), and Active Directory forest aggregation. RadiantOne 5.0 also had added support for role-based delegated administration.

Web 2.0-Based Admin Console The new Web-Based Admin Console brings the same VDS console features to remote users in one or multiple server environments. RadiantOne Remote Console was created using Web 2.0 technology based on Flex by Adobe.

Access & Audit Logging VDS 5.0 now offers database based log files. It is easier than ever to see who accessed what and when. Graphic-based reports are easily produced, providing detailed information needed for access compliance audits.

VDS local LDAP store and LDAP router – RadiantOne 5.0 ships with a scaleable full LDAP v3 directory, comparable to Sun, RedHat and Netscape directories. Local storage can be used for custom configurations, non-intrusive schema and attribute extensions, cache, and more. In addition, RadiantOne comes with an LDAP router for load balancing and fail-over, and monitoring the health of the virtualized identity stores.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) October 7, 2009

NextAdvisor.com, the trusted, independent source for comparing the most valuable new services, has launched a free guide designed to help college students avoid becoming victims of identity theft.

“While identity theft is a serious risk for any individual, college students are particularly susceptible,” said NextAdvisor.com Associate Editor Caitlin Podiak. “The lifestyle of a typical college student creates additional risks, but many students are completely unaware of this issue.”

NextAdvisor.com’s student identity theft protection guide strives to raise students’ awareness of the risks and consequences of identity theft. It explains how certain habits common among college students can lead to identity theft and provides clear and straightforward advice on how to mitigate the danger. NextAdvisor.com emphasizes the importance of safeguarding sensitive personal information, and breaks down what that entails. The guide also encourages young adults to give some consideration to their credit history and to take responsibility for their finances.

“For most students, these things are not even on their radar,” says Podiak. “But it’s essential that they become more informed as they strike out on their own.”

Another issue addressed by this guide is the false sense of security that students may feel within the confines of a college campus, as well as on the Internet, and social networking websites in particular.

NationalCreditReport.com Reminds Consumers That Taking Precautions Against Identity Theft Can Also Defend Against Credit Report Damage

Posted on by
Reply


Delray Beach, FL (PRWEB) October 8, 2010

October 8, 2010 – In commemoration of October being the seventh annual National Cybersecurity Awareness Month sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security, NationalCreditReport.com, a leader in credit report, credit score and credit monitoring services, reminds consumers that being wise about cybersecurity can guard their identity and credit score by preventing identity theft.

Consumers should follow a few simple rules of cybersecurity regarding the way they use technology, in turn securing their own identity and stopping credit fraud and credit report damage before it happens, said Samuel S. Ambrose, Vice President of Marketing and Operations of NationalCreditReport.com. National Cybersecurity Awareness Month is an appropriate time for companies like ours, that both conduct business on the web and also provide consumers with their personal credit report information, to remind people how they can keep themselves and their identities safe.

Cybersecurity tips for preventing identity theft:

Always ensure that computers and any other devices that are connected to the web are secured by the most updated programs to defend against spyware and viruses.

Only make online purchases from companies that guarantee a 100% safe and secure online shopping experience. An indication that the page is secure is if the address in the browsers address bar starts with https://. The “s” that is displayed after “http” indicates that Web site is secure. For example, the address of the page where consumers place their order with NationalCreditReport.com begins with https://www.nationalcreditreport.com. Trust logos are also a sign that the site is secure.

Do not offer too much information on social networking sites like Facebook or MySpace. Full birthdates, favorite movies, mothers maiden names, etc., are all information points that other institutions use to help verify your identity. Posting this information online can allow you to fall victim of someone committing ID theft from social networking.

Set strict privacy settings on social networking sites and make sure that your friends are people you actually know to thwart ID theft from social networking.

Consumers are warned not to fall victim to suspicious e-mail communication from people asking them to go to another site where they need to enter credit card, financial or other personal information.

Participate in a credit monitoring service to be aware of any changes in your credit report.

Identity theft and credit fraud are the fastest growing crimes in America, noted Ambrose. Paying attention to cybersecurity is a smart step in securing not only ones own safety, but preventing the headaches of dealing with an identity theft situation, especially one that goes unnoticed long enough to create credit report damage.

About NationalCreditReport.com

Since 2004, NationalCreditReport.com has specialized in providing credit information and credit monitoring services to consumers to help them understand their credit report and score. NationalCreditReport.com encourages consumers to check their credit report from the 3 major credit bureaus on a regular basis.

Identity Theft 911 Chief Executive Officer Receives Communitas Award for Excellence in Corporate Social Responsibility

Posted on by


(PRWEB) January 11, 2012

Identity Theft 911, the nations premier identity management and data risk management services provider, today announced that chief executive officer, Matt Cullina, has been named winner of a Communitas award for his work in helping to protect foster teens from becoming victims of identity theft. Cullina is fully entrenched in foster youth identity theft issues through his professional experience with a leading provider of identity management services, as well as his personal experience as a foster parent and adoptive parent. An ongoing effort among subject matter experts at Identity Theft 911, the win demonstrates the companys commitment to working together to create an impactful and rewarding philanthropy program.

Communitas Awards recognize exceptional businesses, organizations and individuals for excellence in community service and corporate social responsibility. The Award is an international effort to recognize the spirit of communitas people helping people. Communitas winners generously give of themselves and their resources, and are changing the way they do business to benefit their communities.

Matt and his team exemplify the true meaning of the Communitas Award; they unselfishly give of themselves and they are forever-changing their surrounding community, said Ed Dalheim, executive director, Communitas Awards. Matts involvement and passion for protecting and helping foster youth is shown through his teams commitment to foster youth issues and demonstrated through Identity Theft 911s pledge to corporate social responsibility.

Cullina has been an active contributor on the legislative front by working with U.S. Representative Jim Langevin of Rhode Island on a bill to protect foster youth from financial abuse. The bill was signed into law on October 11, 2011, and contains provisions that shield foster youth from identity theft, as well as provide resolution and support services should identity theft occur. On July 11, Cullina donated his time to serve as a panelist at the FTC forum Stolen Futures for child identity theft, which highlighted issues in the foster care system.

Matt has been a tremendous partner in efforts to give foster youth the opportunities they deserve, providing invaluable leadership to help address the unique challenges faced by an underserved community, said Langevin. This recognition for corporate social responsibility is certainly well-earned.

As one of Cullinas main efforts, Identity Theft 911 united with First Star, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of America’s abused and neglected children. First Star Founder Peter Samuelson and Cullina delivered a series of educational seminars to ninth grade foster children in Los Angeles County in a program called the First Star UCLA Bruin Academy. Cullinas team of fraud specialists donated their time and training during the five week course. Identity Theft 911 and First Star will replicate this academy at universities and colleges throughout the country in 2012.

We are in a unique position to create a positive impact on the lives of foster youth, especially in helping them achieve financial stability and start with a clean identity profile, said Matt Cullina. It is tremendously rewarding to have my teams efforts recognized by the Communitas Awards committee.
