Martin's top 10 IAM trends for 2009...

Martin Kuppinger's "top 10 trends for 2009". Not sure if this was in reverse order or not but you get the idea...

• GRC as the business control layer of IAM
• Growing maturity of Identity 2.0 approaches
• Multi-purpose (smart)cards gain momentum
• Context and versatility becoming reality - re: authorization
• More IAM and GRC for the cloud. (Adoption of cloud services is held back by the immaturity of IAM and GRC for the cloud)
• Portable identity information for social networks.
• GRC going beyond IAM. (attestation, access controls)
• First impacts of new electronic passports/ID cards. (Not in the US, eh?!)
• Increasing service orientation in IAM and GRC.
• Privacy is back - and there are more solutions.
