Resources: Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q: What is Identity Management?

    A: Employees, customers and business partners access your network resources on a daily basis. They can because they were given accounts, credentials and access rights. Different systems, environments, target audiences, etc. require different sets of identifiers, keys and privileges. Over time these data have become spread out over your organisation and it is hard to get a complete view on even a single person’s digital identity.

    Identity Management are the skills that get you back in control over the digital identities that (r)evolve within your organisation.

  • Q: What is Access Management?

    A: Delivering information to the intended recipient on time and without risk is the key challenge for every IT infrastructure. For this to happen, we need to know who has access to what, where after access control has to be enforced in a consistent manner.

    Access management is the collection of policies, procedures and technology that enables organisations to facilitate and control user access to network resources.
