Tivoli Federated Identity Manager

Course Overview

IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager employs a loosely-coupled model for managing identities and access across security, company, or organisational domains. Instead of replicating identity and security administration in multiple places, IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager provides a simple trust model for managing identities and access to information and services. IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager also provides policy-based integrated security management for federated Web services.

In this 50% hands-on course, students will learn to deploy and administer secure business-to-business and single sign-on federated environments.
