Currently Google is a key industry driver of Identity standards like OpenID and OAuth that are used to reduce the use of passwords on the Internet, and to provider secure ways to connect different web-services whether they are on the cloud or on-premise. In 2008/2009 there were many press articles about businesses that leaked user's social security numbers. Now we are starting to see articles about websites who leaked the passwords of users, and the nasty side effects because people reuse passwords on other websites. Do you want your company to be in the next such article? There are now a growing number of identity providers using technologies like SAML, OpenID, & OAuth to allow their users to log into websites without needing to have a specific password for that site. Large websites like Yahoo, AOL, Google, Facebook, and others are not only identity providers, but also have started to prove there is business value in being a relying party beyond just replacing passwords. In this session we will summarize the current best practices, and adoption of these techniques.
