Identity & Access Management

Delivers security with strong business value

The identity and access management (IAM) market consists of several types of technologies existing as individual products or product components that work together to:

• Establish a coordinated identity data infrastructure. This segment encompasses products that form the identity information layer itself: directories, metadirectories, and virtual directories
• Administer users’ accounts and privileges. Products that manage users’ accounts, attributes, and credentials include provisioning, role management, password management, and privileged user management. This category also includes the functional elements of self-service and delegated administration
• Control users’ access to IT resources. Coordinating users’ access to multiple applications is the domain of products like enterprise single sign-on (E-SSO), Web single sign-on (Web SSO), and federation.  It also includes the emerging area of entitlement management
• Audit both related administrative and access activities. Organizations require the ability to demonstrate that account administration and access controls are performing according to policy; identity audit products help with this effort. This includes auditing tools that combine and correlate activities and events across the identity infrastructure, as well as privilege attestation tools to help certify that the privileges associated with a user are correct. It also includes role management products, which serve a dual role of both codifying policies and validating their enforcement

While regulatory compliance and security rank among the main drivers behind identity and access management implementations, companies are quickly realizing that IAM projects touch on almost every aspect of business. In fact, organizations with clear definitions of business processes and enterprise roles are much quicker to achieve business results with IAM.
