Managing Identities
Identity Management (IdM) has become one of the big growth areas over the last two or three years and formerly known as user administration or access management.
One of the key drivers is the growing complexity of e-business and the security impact on the business.
With more enterprises conducting business online with their customers and providers, enterprises are increasing the number of users on their systems and giving more users outside the enterprise access to internal systems through federating identities. In the battle to decrease operating costs the potential security impact is that unauthorised users are gaining access to environments where they could damage the business.
Identity management (IdM) initiatives are driven by many other challenges for the enterprise such as:
Economy
Increased security requirements
Regulatory requirements such as Basel II, SOX, FDA etc
RBAC - Role-based user administration
Increased number of users, enterprise consolidation
Increased collaboration with external parties
New solution requirements
New applications that meet functional requirements but are not
homogenous with processes or technical infrastructure for the enterprise
Many software vendors have turned their offerings into extremely powerful IdM solutions to benefit from the huge growth in this new discipline. The big challenge for managers today comes when they need to decide exactly what is needed, how to prioritise that need and in the end - how to secure the funds needed for an Identity Management project.
