TRUE_IDENTITY is a brand of The Kenna Group, LLP. It is currently focused on a product called TRUE_IDENTITY Enterprise Identity Matching.
True Identity speaks to the need to match real people to the access credentials they use as a proxy on networks. Access credentials (username-login and the like) are the keys but, who is the person using the key? Surprisingly, most of the administration of systems and networks has been focused on managing the keys and not really worrying about the person behind them.
Sounds interesting and boring at the same time. Well, this is my (Philip Hume) blog and I hope to make this more interesting than boring.
I believe that I have seen a problem in the identity management world that is pervasive and in need of a specialized solution. I came to realize this problem, serendipitously back in 2003, as a real ‘aha’ moment. Since then, my understanding of this problem has been somewhat of a curse, as it seems not so obvious to those who are afflicted with it and to 99% of the practitioners in the identity management world. It has been a long 3 years but, I think the time has come to recognize the problem and to appreciate the nuance needed in the solution. We shall see.
