Businesses are struggling to maintain their user controls, with an adverse impact on productivity, security, and compliance status. They are also increasingly using automated processes to interact with both their customers and their external business partners, so secure access controls and effective regimes for safeguarding information are essential.

Explains the five key business trends driving identity management and information privacy.

Identifies four key technology trends that should be applied to meet these business challenges.

Provides advice for both enterprise and vendor clients.

Covers all industry sectors and geographies.

Highlights

An identity management system is at the heart of the organisation, determining who does what and at the same protecting its assets. An efficient identity management system can significantly enhance productivity by eliminating time consuming burdens on the deployment of staff and expediting their access to IT systems in their daily activities.

The public is becoming increasingly worried about data breaches, even though few people yet understand the risk profile of their personal data. Organisations risk serious damage to their brand and reputation if they fail to protect the privacy of people that have put their trust in them.

Cloud services from an external service provider are changing the profile of IT environments: a public service becomes an extension of the internal systems, requiring comprehensive and granular access controls at both ends. Organisations have to decide the appropriate level of protection for data, applications and infrastructure.
