    Tutorial: Identity Management Systems and Secured Access Control

    Get PDF
    Identity Management has been a serious problem since the establishment of the Internet. Yet little progress has been made toward an acceptable solution. Early Identity Management Systems (IdMS) were designed to control access to resources and match capabilities with people in well-defined situations, Today’s computing environment involves a variety of user and machine centric forms of digital identities and fuzzy organizational boundaries. With the advent of inter-organizational systems, social networks, e-commerce, m-commerce, service oriented computing, and automated agents, the characteristics of IdMS face a large number of technical and social challenges. The first part of the tutorial describes the history and conceptualization of IdMS, current trends and proposed paradigms, identity lifecycle, implementation challenges and social issues. The second part addresses standards, industry initia-tives, and vendor solutions. We conclude that there is disconnect between the need for a universal, seamless, trans-parent IdMS and current proposed standards and vendor solutions

    Designing and Implementing a Backup and Recovery System for Kentucky\u27s Cooperative Extension Service

    Get PDF
    This project proposes the development and proof of concept implementation of a comprehensive backup and recovery plan for Kentucky\u27s Cooperative Extension Service. Currently, no standardized backup system is in place. Each CES office location contains between five and forty Windows based workstations and at least one server, and backup methods vary from office to office. Current backup processes are inadequate in several key areas. To ensure the availability and integrity of mission critical data, the goal of this project is the analysis, design, and implementation of a standardized backup and recovery plan. The project will consider multiple hardware and software solutions (both commercial and open source), along with best practices for implementation and maintenance. A select number of offices will be chosen for implementation, and the project will be considered complete when a successful proof of concept has been established in these locations. A consistent, reliable backup solution, with both onsite and offsite components, will provide a much needed safeguard to enterprise information and protect against costly data loss

    Yerba Buena Center: Environmental Impact Report. Final. Volume I

    As a result of voter approval of a policy declaration to construct a convention center including an exhibit hall in Yerba Buena Center (YBC), the City of San Francisco has initiated a program of preliminary design of the convention center facility. Because the site, configuration I and method of financing are different from previous proposals, and because many other features and uses in the YBC redevelopment area are being reconsidered and may be changed from the approved Redevelopment Plan I this Environmental Impact Report (EIR) has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This EIR discusses and evaluates four alternative plans (concepts) for YBC in similar detail. None of the alternatives is singled out as the project . The final project will probably be a combination of the elements discussed in the various alternatives. Using data developed in the definition and analyses of the four alternative plans, the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency made a tentative proposal to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for changes to the approved Redevelopment Plan
