Identity and Access Management
Identity is the cornerstone of digital transformation — the doorman for proper access and the foundation of Zero Trust.
About
Identity Is at the Center
If security is no longer focused on the network, but the users, then identity is at the center — the doorman determining proper access.
A modern and mature IAM platform ensures the right people have the right level of access, to the right resources, in the right context, and that access is assessed continuously — all without adding friction for the user.
With never trust, always verify as the aim, a unified IAM platform is the starting point for the journey to Zero Trust.
Why
An IAM Platform Tackles Your Most Pressing IT Initiatives
Secure Remote Work
An increasing number of organizations are supporting distributed, remote teams. Enable productivity without compromising on security to power long-term business agility.
Adopt Zero Trust
The traditional network perimeter has dissolved. People are now the single control point across users, devices, and networks — so make sure you give the right people access to your resources.
Move to the Cloud
As you move to the cloud, unify access to both on-premises and cloud resources, consolidate identities, and ensure only the right people access your resources.
Reduce IT Friction
As your business grows, you need to securely manage access to apps and services, increase IT efficiencies to minimize costs, and automate user access.
Collaborate with Partners
Make it easier to collaborate with your partners, reduce IT complexities as partner ecosystems grow, and eliminate security vulnerabilities caused by over-allocating access to resources.
Improve M&A Agility
Merging cultures, products, and tech is hard. Centralize identity and access control, consolidate domains, and enable day-one access for all users.
Our Approach
Moving to Maturity
Zero Trust isn’t a switch you can turn on — it’s a journey. And with never trust, always verify at the core of that strategy, it makes sense that the journey starts with identity. We developed our IAM Maturity Curve to help companies understand where they are on the path and advise them on a roadmap to move to maturity.
Key Stats
65% of companies don’t have a unified user directory
44% have implemented MFA
18% have an automated pro / deprovisioning mechanism
3 Stages to IAM Maturity
Stage 1
Establish
Unified IAM
The first stage to resolving the security gaps left open by many fragmented identities is consolidating under one IAM platform, across on-premises and cloud.
- Adaptive MFA
- SSO across employees, partners, and contractors
- Universal Directory
- Unified policies across apps and servers
Stage 2
Evolve
Contextual Access
The next stage is layering in context-based access policies. This means gathering rich signals about the user’s context, application context, device context, location and network, and applying access policies based on that information.
- Automated provisioning and deprovisioning
- Secure access to APIs
- Passwordless
- Context-based access policies
Stage 3
Enhance
Adaptive Workforce
The final stage extends authenticating and authorizing beyond the front gate, continuously throughout the user’s experience via an adaptive, risk-based assessment to identify potential threats.
- Frictionless access
- Risk-based access policies
- Continuous and adaptive authentication and authorization
Capabilities
A Unified Platform for Dynamic Secure Access
Through a single control plane, flexible security policies and IT automation, a unified IAM platform provides all the capabilities to secure and automate cloud journeys, with full support for hybrid environments along the way.
- Least privileged access
- One user, one identity
- Automated workflows
Adaptive MFA
Secure multi-factor authentication solution because 80% of security breaches involve compromised passwords.
Single Sign-On
Reliable single sign-on service that integrates with all your web and mobile apps. An SSO application with a full-featured federation engine and flexible access policy.
