Michael McLaughlin posted a first part of a new article titled Identity Management Using PHP over the OTN. The first part focus on how to design and manage your authentication system, exploring the architecture, Authentication process and the Encryption to implement a basic identity management solution. Part 2 of the article will explore different methods of database access and how identity management can leverage security policies in an Oracle Virtual Private Database (VPD), as well as with the built-in DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO package.
In this article, you will learn how to implement identity management in PHP-based Web applications. You will learn how to design and implement an Oracle Identity Management database model, and plan and manage all aspects of user interactions in a browser-hosted application.
Just wanted to mention that Michael is author of Oracle Database 10g Express Edition PHP Web Programming, an excellent introductory book to PHP programming with Oracle database 10g Express Edition to develop enterprise applications.
