I think we're doing a moderate job and relying a little too much on databases historically being deeper within the enterprise.

We've got so many issues down here. Since FEMA is paying the bill the company says we're emergency workers.

But when it benefits the operators against the company, then they say FEMA controls it and they hold up their hands like they can't do anything.

We even do our legal in house. It's a very, very tight-knit company that controls what it does very well. If we continue to provide great value to our customers, they will continue to knock our doors down, which they've done.

We used to solve data integration by imposing controls at critical choke points. SOA eliminates these choke points, so I now have a data integration problem everywhere. That means every data access point has to be able to transform and manage data.

We have protested against the way the controls were done. I personally spoke to the president (Jacques Rogge) of the IOC this morning.

We tried that in America. Jimmy Carter gave us price controls on natural gas. Remember what it gave us? Shortages, shutdowns, a horrible situation in parts of the country where factories couldn't operate and people went unemployed. Price caps? Prices caps mean shortages, less energy.

We don't know all of the controls on how these plants grow and thus cannot predict how things will change in the future as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere continues to rise. For example, seldom do people go to sea to find out what is happening in the wintertime. We did just that.

While people often think of identity management in 'defensive' terms, one of the most important benefits of IDMS is that it can help organizations to enable new services and business models that might otherwise be too risky too implement. Financial institutions, for example, are under increasing pressure to eliminate business line silos and take a company-wide view of their customers, in order to better provide them with the products and services that meet their individual needs. Yet, this imperative challenges traditional identity management processes, controls and governance structures. IDMS is designed to help our clients minimize risk and fraud loss, as well as, help them develop the new processes and governance they'll need to offer robust identity-based products and services.

At the end of the day, if you are talking about a blatant fraud, registration is not gong to prevent it. What it does do is put (managers) on the map.

It doesn't prevent outright fraud, but it does add a deterrent.

The time may now be ripe for controls on individuals to be dismantled.

They are all planning very cautiously, very carefully.
