Identity and Yul Brenner
The terms TIM and TAM are well known in the Identity Management market – short for “Tivoli Identity Manager” and “Tivoli Access Manager”, respectively. Not quite as frequently, some people refer to the Sun Identity Manager and Sun Access Manager products as SIM and SAM.
I propose we combine and shorten those two acronyms to SIAM. It’s comprehensive, catchy and just think, Yul Brynner could be our patron saint!
For those of you too young to remember, Yul Brynner was the bald guy who played the King of Siam in the 1956 classic movie, The King and I. He made baldness cool long before Michael Jordan or Charles Barkley were even born.
