IBM logoAs reported in InternetNews (and brought to my attention by Tony Nadalin), IBM has expanded the scope of its Tivoli Federated Identity Manager product to include support for Information Cards and OpenID. This is a fantastic development, as it puts software enabling use of these user-centric identity technologies into the hands of IBM’s numerous important customers, ranging from enterprises to Internet businesses. Congratulations to IBM and the Tivoli team for this significant achievement!
