Identity & Access Management
A Rapidly Growing Area of Technology
Identity & Access Management (IAM) is a framework for managing electronic identities. Its purpose is to ensure that employees, customers and partners or a combination thereof, have appropriate access to specific systems and data based around their current status. New trends such as cloud computing are the fuel behind it's growing prevelence in todays technology/business climate.
The challenge of identity & Access Management goes beyond setting up secure access. It's managing the ongoing need to customize access as people's roles and need for access change.
It's also establishing reliable means to verify the identity of the user accessing systems. Without a sound identity management program, former employees, including former employees of clients and partners often retain electronic access that is no longer appropriate.
The introduction of cloud based systems increases the need for and complexity of identity management as a whole. As organizations place critical business data in systems they do not physically control, it is essential that they have processes in place to ensure all access is appropriate.
