IDENTITY & ACCESS MANAGEMENT |
|
| Provision helps customers to develop and implement identity management architectures that
address the entire spectrum of identity management requirements. That includes policy-based
authentication, authorization, and credentialing through best-in-class products and services. |
|
| Identity management is essentially an infrastructure that encompasses many
technologies, from user provisioning to authentication and access management.
The identity infrastructure enables organizations to intelligently use digital
identities to achieve business goals — whether that is increasing revenue, improving
customer satisfaction, or reducing costs. When it comes to conducting business online,
an organization can only use identities that are trusted. An effective identity management
solution establishes trust in an organization's online environment by building proper security
measures into the infrastructure. Who users are (Authentication) and what users can do (Access
Management) are tightly coupled and routed in the ability to manage the full life cycle of a digital
identity, as well as enforcement of organizational access policies. These components are critical
to the success of an organization’s identity and access management solution. |
|
| Access Management: One of the fundamental purposes of identity management is to ensure that diverse
users have access to the resources they need in order to be productive. At the same time, the
organization also needs to secure those resources from unauthorized access. |
|
| The right identity and access management solution will greatly enhance users’ experience, helping them to control their
on-line identities because they will no longer be required to manage a hoard of passwords. An integrated
identity and access management solution also enables simplified sign-on so users can move seamlessly
across applications and even domains. Such a system will even create a “circle of trust” in which
participating organizations can verify the authenticity of users in a federated model. The result
will be productive, satisfied users. |
|
| Identity and access management solutions will ensure greater levels of security to match
the growing risk of exposure and high stakes involved in e-business and web services. The
solutions will shift fluidly with an organization’s perimeter protecting the business at the
application level. In addition, an integrated identity and access management platform will be
the cornerstone to security enforcement, providing a basis for consistent enforcement, audit
and reporting of policies across the e-business environment. |
