Identity and AccessManagement Services Bringing Action to Strategy for a Mature Identity Program Overview Identity Solutions Identity Challenges Benefits Identity Resources What is an Identity and Access Management (IAM) Program? Identity and access management (IAM) refers to the people, processes and technology used to create, manage, authenticate, control and remove the permissions a user (internal, external or customer) has when working with an organization’s technology resources. IAM helps manage user interactions and decrease the chances of a cyber incident launched through abused credentials. Common components of an IAM program include single sign on (SSO), access management and user authentication. As digital transformation, compliance and work-from-home requirements grow, your security perimeter becomes more fluid and dynamic. That makes identity and access management (IAM) more crucial than ever. Our identity services can help you reach maturity – no matter where your program stands today.
