Identity and Access Management: Authenticating The Digital Identity

Identity and Access Management is key and crucial to managing the roles and access privileges of individual network users through a digital ID that has to be maintained, modified and monitored throughout what many call “the access lifecycle”.  This entire process is inextricably linked to the security and productivity of an organization to protect their digital assets and enhance business productivity.  Whether it be an individual digital user or a federation of shared digital IDs, the model must be established to include identified and trusted partners.
