Does your organization require an excessive number of login IDs and passwords? Is it difficult to remove a user from all systems?
Most IT organizations utilize IT systems involving backend systems and frontend applications that are not securely integrated. They cannot share knowledge for authorized end-user access. Each system has its own disparate methods of user administration, user provisioning and, access policies.
The result is a negative impact to overall business performance, lower productivity, duplicate and conflicting information, lack of information security, and inability to comply with audits and regulatory requirements.
This means that businesses are incurring unreasonable costs, and undue pressure on existing resources in the following ways:

Enterprise Identity Management is the process and technologies associated with creating and maintaining a single identity for each discrete person or device that needs access to corporate information systems and applications. This includes single sign-on, centrally controlled authentication and access policies, the federation of identities across the value chain, plus auditable provisioning across the enterprise.
