DFBA Joins DHS, and DoD at Upcoming Annual Identity Management Symposium
Alexandria, VA, March 12, 2016 --(PR.com)-- On April 19th & 20th, 2016, senior leaders within DFBA, DHS, DoD, and the Intelligence Community will convene in Alexandria, VA, for two days of off the record briefings and informal discussions at Defense Strategies Institute’s 3rd Annual Identity Management Symposium. With the central theme of “Advancing Identity Intelligence and Biometric Effectiveness,” the symposium is designed as an educational and training “Town Hall” forum where thought leaders and key policy-makers across military and civilian organizations can come together for actionable discussions and debate.
Due to their high level of accuracy, more government agencies have adopted Biometric security measures as opposed to traditional means. Most Biometric Devices can deliver an accuracy rate generally between 95-100 percent when matching biometric data against a database. An increased focus in protecting and managing identity intelligence has occurred due to security breaches. A joint / layered / whole-of-government approach that leverages interagency partnerships as a force multiplier is the best way to collaborate on protection of the access and management of Identity intelligence effectively and efficiently.
“We have created a Symposium that will bring together a variety of stakeholders in order to build out two days of discussion and debates that tackle many of the areas involved in enhancing identity policy and technology in support of national security," said Thomas Engelman, Senior Partner with Defense Strategies Institute.
DSI’s upcoming Symposium recognizes that in a field such as identity management and biometrics, where there are multiple agents acting in tandem, it is extremely important that all involved are working towards a cohesive and holistic approach.
