IdM – Identity Management

Identity Management An IdM system is a group of applications and/or services that co-ordinate the exchange of identity information held in different data repositories throughout an organization. Prior to the implementation of an automated IdM system, most organizations find that information is scattered, duplicated and inconsistent across their identity repositories. An automated IdM system can make organizational data available in an accurate and timely manner, reducing costs through consolidation and process improvements, and reducing security problems caused by out-of-date access rights.
