More Information:
http://nwnug.com/graffiti/meetings/january-15-2013-mark-bostleman/In .Net development, evaluating AD Group membership has been a conventional approach to enforcing authorization. However, as enterprise applications scale towards sharing logic in reusable frameworks and leveraging federated identity, the AD / role-based approach does not always scale well along with it. As an alternative, we will look at how claims can be used to provide a more granular authorization model that aligns more closer with APIs than with organizational charts while at the same time providing a pathway to cross platform integration.
