As organizations begin deploying new applications and
services for internal and external users, cost of managing
IT systems is escalating. This is primarily due to an
environment where identity information and security
policies are managed separately by every individual
systems and applications.
The need for a more flexible
yet secure access into these multiple applications is
hampered by administration redundancies, making it impossible
for an organization to standardize any access and security
policies. These will definitely result in increased
in operating cost and inconsistent user data source.
There is a need to put in place standards and policies
to handle users and security to achieve data consistency.
When a user's role change in an organization, changes
to privileges must be propagated to all systems to maintain
consistency. The lack of consistent account activation
and deactivation process is a major security risk faced
by organizations today.
There is also a pressing
need to understand one's employees, customers, suppliers
and business partners better in today's connected world.
Again, with the current disparate systems environment,
the organization finds it almost impossible to have
a consolidated view of its users, hence crippling it
from offering better customer service.
