The Perils and Proper Provisioning of Pauline
Identity and access management (IAM) sits at the very core of effective security. But what exactly is IAM? And, how can it improve my security stance? It seems to be too complex, too broad and too expensive for my needs.
Read on to learn the answers to your questions and to see how IAM – or key aspects of it – are exactly what your organization needs.
Security Starts Here
At One Identity, we promote the mantra ‘security starts here’. By ‘here’, we mean identity. But for you and your organization, ‘security starts here’ means your most pressing identity challenge:
- How can we improve process X?
- How can we be more efficient?
- How can we better secure our data, resources and reputation?
It also refers to our portfolio of award-winning IAM solutions – identity governance and administration (IGA), privileged access management (PAM), or Active Directory (AD) management.
At its essence, security is about ensuring that the right people (only the right people), have the right access to the right resources, along with the ability to prove that the access is right. And at its core, access is a function of identity. If you know who someone is, to which resources they should – and shouldn’t – have access and what they can – or cannot – do with that access. In other words, if you have a rock-solid concept of identity – your chances of securing your data and resources dramatically improves.
