WHAT–
October 27, 2006. It might seem like the distant future, but it will be here in the blink of an eye, as will the deadline for HSPD-12 compliance. This directive requires federal agencies to begin using a biometric smart card standard known as Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 201 for employee and contractor identification.
Please join Merlin and BMC for a complimentary seminar on HSPD-12 Implementations, May 24 at the Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City. Company executives and other subject-matter experts will present case studies and presentations on the primary challenges to full implementation as well as identify applications and services, such as the BMC Identity Management solution and Merlin’s seasoned professional services team, that can help agencies comply with this critical security initiative.
During this presentation, attendees will learn:
- The current HSPD-12 requirements, impending deadlines and how to identify process challenges before they become major headaches.
- Best practices for identity and access management and how to improve process for HSPD-12 compliance.
- How government organizations can use HSPD-12 to launch identity and access management initiatives.
- The business value and other benefits beyond checklist compliance in direct support of agency missions.
WHEN - Thursday, May 24, 2006, 10:00 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. ET
WHEN - The Ritz-Carlton - Pentagon City
1250 South Hayes Street
Arlington, VA, 22202
