Identity & Access Management (IAM)


Identity and access management (IAM) is the process of managing who has access to what information over time. This cross-functional activity involves the creation of distinct identities for individuals and systems, as well as the association of system and application-level accounts to these identities. IAM includes policies, processes and workflows for on-boarding, off-boarding, identity modification, security applications, provisioning, authentication, authorization and entitlement enforcement. 
What organizations wants to achieve by implement IAM systems:
• Improved regulatory compliance.
• Reduced information security risk.
• Reduced IT operating and development costs.
• Improved operating efficiencies and transparency.
• Improved user satisfaction.
• Increased effectiveness of key business initiatives.
