IAM position in the Market :
Average, its like Intro to Siteminder.
Certificate Management/Reporting server/Key Management/SMT Testing Tool/Cross Domain auth/authz is not covered
Not much useful “use cases” are provided
Most of the topics are focused only on configuration rather than implementation like a documentation readout
Lot of repetition rather than explaining topics in detail
Thanks Kiran for your candid feedback, have requested our trainer (Subrat) to address the concern/gap in topics, it will be resolved to your satisfaction.
