As with most things prefixed with &#8220;Enterprise,&#8221; the use of the E-word doesn&#8217;t really explain what the exact technology is. In this case, ESSO simply means Single Sign On for non web applications: things like GUI, desktop applications, that is. SSO, on the other hand, is understood to mean  Single Sign On for web applications.<\/p>\n<p>We also talk about how identity management &#8211; tacking the activity thereof &#8211; laces through recent US political scandals like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.networkworld.com\/news\/2008\/032108-faq-the-obama-breach-what.html?fsrc=netflash-rss\">passport-gate<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.economist.com\/world\/na\/displaystory.cfm?story_id=10852872\">Eliot Spitzer&#8217;s high-price hookers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Raising the topic of another M&amp;A move &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.infoworld.com\/article\/08\/03\/12\/Ping-adds-to-wares-to-support-SaaS_1.html\">Ping buying the SaaS-SSO parts of Sxip<\/a> &#8211; we, as ever, we also talk about eagerly awaiting the industry-wide victory of OpenID.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we round up with some music recommendations.<\/p>\n<p><b>Disclaimer:<\/b> Sun is a client and pays for my participation in this podcast.
