By Vo Blinn
Format:Hardcover
But would like to start with the original reviewer:
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA).
Currently at almost 60K all-positive reviews on every imaginable subject.
While a pre-paid and, hence, dishonest review, it allows your publication
to top Avg. Customer Review list.
Hopefully, not for long, since other reviews are coming, if readers care.
Wonder when their contract with Amazon expires not to be ever
renewed?
-------------------------------------------------------------
Now the book. While only on p. 50 (a quarter past), few of the
pages read so far don't have underlined statements, which are
to indicate either
- inaccuracies/outdated info;
or
- definitions, that do not agree with other sources (glossary'd be nice);
or
- unclear wording (regrettably way 2 many).
Still intend to finish the book, which might change the rating.
At the moment experiencing problem justifying this 80$ expense.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Update: failed to move past Reverse Proxy SSO (p. 61), waste of time.
OpenID, SAML and InfoCard comparison is better be tabular: shorter
and consumable.
Thank you for your time.
PS.: To the authors: should you consider any portion of this review
inaccurate, please, contact me at your convenience - we will work
together to resolve any issues.

With today's massive surge of information, identity protection and management is more important than ever. "Identity Management: Concepts, Technologies, and Systems" discusses digital identity and its place in today's information world where identity theft seems to have become one of the more profitable crimes with little risk for the thieves, making it even more appealing. Aimed at the security technician for a tech business, Elisa Bertino and Kenji Takahashi draw on their own experience and technical know how on how to create a more secure business and information security for both the employees and users of your internet services. "Identity Management" is a strong resource for anyone designing security measures, a core addition to any computer and technology library collection.
