Identity and access management (IAM) refers to the systems, processes, and technologies used to create, manage, authenticate, control, and revoke the permissions that users (whether internal, external, or customers) have when accessing an organization’s technological resources. IAM helps to manage user interactions and reduce the likelihood of cyber incidents resulting from compromised credentials. Key components of an IAM program typically include single sign-on (SSO), access management, and user authentication.
As digital transformation, compliance demands, and remote work policies continue to grow, your security perimeter becomes more fluid and dynamic. This makes IAM more essential than ever. Our identity services can support you in reaching full maturity, regardless of where your programme currently stands.
