Can we stop with the "as a service" stuff and just call this a vendor providing a solution? In fact per my read of the white paper, www.authanvil.com is a provider of "Authentication as a Service" in his offerings but I never once called what the firm did a "as a service". Authanvil is just meeting the needs of the marketplace where some need an authentication service in a place where all of their clients can use the two factor process to many different servers.
Can we get off the "as a service" bandwagon and just call this stuff vendors offering solutions that are flexible to meet their customers needs?
