The challenge
- Increasing risks from inefficient access control – Disparate, disconnected processes for identity and access management can leave security risks in your infrastructure.
- Costly and time consuming processes – If processes are not integrated across your organization, user management and user rights changes can be inefficient and costly. Help desk costs can rise as well.
- Access issues impact employee productivity – If employees can’t access data and applications, they can’t do their work.
- Growing demand for regulatory compliance and reporting – You must be able to meet a growing number of compliance initiatives without diverting resources from core activities.
Organizations need a comprehensive identity and access management to protect valuable IT assets from improper use. Businesses are looking for a solution that enables approved users to access applications and data while protecting these assets against unauthorized access. Seems simple, but the solution needs to do this without interfering with productivity while balancing the security risks with the cost of acquisition and management.
It is possible to protect these assets and improve business productivity. IBM enables companies to address their enterprise security needs while improving the user experience - and to reduce costs while increasing efficiencies and supporting compliance.
