Abstract:
We all have many personas: we share different information with different people and organisations, depending on whether we are acting as a friend, an employee, a parent, a citizen, or a consumer. Most people shift fluidly and rapidly -- often unconsciously -- between their personas. Key takeaways: -- What is persona management, and why is it important? -- How can I manage my own personas more safely? -- What are the near-term prospects for persona management on a computer? (This work was presented orally to an audience of approx 50 IT professionals, in the Security track at The Open Group Enterprise Transformation Conference, Sydney.)
