Authorized Access and Privileged Account Management

Identity Governance, Single-Sign On, Role Management
Since applications allow users to access and process raw data, and run corporate operations with it in a structured way, accessing them outside of control creates a security vulnerability for organizations. For this reason, it is necessary to manage who can access which application, why, how, and when. Organizations that perceive security vulnerabilities arising from application access as a threat, want to take measures that will implement policies against these threats. This is where identity and access management solutions come into play in the context of application security.
Fully automated operation and capabilities of Identity and Access Management systems rely on their role-based functioning. In this sense, Role Management has a vital role. Systems that manage the lifecycle of roles, “Role Management” systems. Identity, Access, and Role Management systems complement and feed into each other.
