Secure Hybrid Identity™
Enterprise Identity Management
Our identities – the digital representations of ourselves and our employees – underpin organisational security in the 21st Century. Maximising the efficiency of identity and access management, then, is crucial to keeping organisational data secure, customers confident, and individuals protected.
We all have a digital identity, comprised of access, profiles, credentials, and more; if you’ve ever logged onto a system, you have an identity present. What makes our identities unique is that the information pulled together is relevant specifically to you, and – if misused – it can grant access to everything you do, and everything you are. With that in mind, identity is the key asset organisations must protect to remain fundamentally secure.
Doing so, however, is no mean feat and many organisations find themselves struggling to master identity access management, in the process jeopardising data and security. Luckily, you’ve got the experts in your corner.
The unseen cost of Identity Management
Mistreatment of identity and access management procedures also opens the organisation up to another type of risk: hidden costs. Duplicated accounts, multiple employee credentials, and password recovery all eat away at employees’ time and efficiency.
Meanwhile, duplicate systems, unused licenses, and former employees accessing expensive software equate to a sizeable financial burden that puts the organisation at an operational disadvantage.
Fortunately, there are technologies available which can circumvent the challenges of identity fatigue, security, and hidden costs.
Joiners Movers Leavers (JML) automation
Automate the JML process to provide and revoke permissions to joiners, movers, and leaders, while minimising human error, speeding up the joiner process, and preventing software harvesting by former employees. By embracing JML automation, organisations can take steps towards safeguarding vital identities and data, limiting access to what users need, when they need it – as well as generating plenty of data for HR department benefit from GDPR compliance and data generation.
User self-service
Relieve the pressure on your IT helpdesk by empowering users to manage their own passwords, while also being able to request access to data and groups. Without the distraction, you’ll find tangible savings in time and money, as well as better focus and efficiency from across the organisation. Meanwhile, delegate management access to those who need it, protecting the system with regular access reviews.
