Webinar: Entitlement Administration & Governance
CALGARY, April 19, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --
The Next Step in the Evolution of Identity and Access Management
The market for managing identities,
credentials and security entitlements has evolved radically over the
years. It started with directories, moved on to self-service and
automation to manage identities in those directories (identity
management), grew to include web single sign-on (access management)
and, more recently, the focus has shifted to policy and controls
(access governance).
On Thursday, April 26th, Idan Shoham, CTO, Hitachi ID Systems, will
introduce the concept of Entitlement Administration and Governance
(EAG) which is a fresh approach to managing users and their access
rights.
In this online session, Shoham will explain that companies focus
primarily on administration and governance of security entitlements
and, only secondarily, on identity attributes. He will demonstrate that
routine administration processes are tightly coupled with governance,
security policy, audit and other controls.
EAG resets the approach to managing identities, entitlements and
credentials. It clarifies that administration and governance are
inseparable and focuses on security entitlements, rather than identity
attributes.
Shoham will explain why any approach that treats the management of
identities separately from entitlements, or considers administration
and governance as distinct and separate, will create more problems than
it solves.
About the Webinar
Held on Thursday, April 26th (10amPT/11amMT/1pm ET), this
thought-provoking perspective offers an alternate view to the widely
promoted notion of Identity and Access Governance (IAG) as distinct
from User Provisioning or Identity Administration.
