Are you giving new hires appropriate access to information, so they can be productive from day one? What about terminated employees – can you quickly disable their login credentials to all systems?

When end-users have to constantly request access-privileges and remember passwords across a multitude of systems, productivity suffers. 

Conservative estimates indicate that a user requires an average of two password resets per year. If every user in your corporation places two calls per year, the out-of-pocket expense is not trivial. In organizations with manual password support services, the costs range from approximately $15 to $40 per call.  This can add up to be a substantial cost.  Moreover, when end-user access must be quickly removed across those same systems – one system at a time - security suffers.

Too often data center administrators use valuable in-house development or technical resources to improve efficiency for these types of manual processes. The results are frequently inadequate; development and implementation costs are high; the solution usually does not scale; and additional IT resources are required for ongoing maintenance. Moreover, most of these solutions are still based on a centralized administration policy and do not delegate administration - and control - to customers.

Provisioning directly addresses key compliance concerns around documentation, enforcement, and auditing of security controls.

Benefits of Provisioning include the following:

The primary value of provisioning has shifted from the ROI around self-service password reset and IT efficiency improvements to the policy enforcement and auditable reporting around role-based access controls and centralized process management. Provisioning has overtaken previous methods such as Web single sign-on in terms of both visibility and import.
