Leader in access management and compliance, Courion® Corporation, announced it will be participating in the Philadelphia SecureWorld Expo taking place May 7-8, 2008. Vice president of Courion, corporate development, Kurt Johnson, will join participants from Microsoft and P2 Security on the ID Management panel that will address the necessary elements for building an effective enterprise identity and access management infrastructure. Philadelphia is among 10 SecureWorld Expo regional events Courion is sponsoring across the U.S.

Paula Arcioni, manager of identity management services in the New Jersey Office of Information Technology will moderate Philadelphia's SecureWorld ID Management panel. Including provisioning systems, virtual directories, RBAC utilities and workflow engines, the panel will focus on the necessary elements for building an effective identity and access management infrastructure. To create a unified approach to addressing companies' complex security and compliance requirements, panelists will address how these tools must come together.

To discuss best practices and to bind that body of thought in a public/private partnership with Government, SecureWorld Expo is the first Regional Conference formed to promote the ideals of fostering communication between security professionals and technology leaders. Security in the 21st Century will be a driving principle for Business and Government and SecureWorld Expo will drive that discussion.
