Governing User Access: Why Provisioning-Centric Approaches Fall Short

Organizations of all sizes continue to face ever-stricter regulatory and security requirements to protect their IT assets from unauthorized use. In response, many enterprises have embarked upon Identity and Access Management (IAM) initiatives, only to be disappointed with the cost, speed and effectiveness of their implementations. This whitepaper will examine why traditional provisioning approaches to IAM have fallen short and what enterprises should be doing to optimize their IAM management initiatives.

Topics covered in this white paper include:

• The reasons why provisioning systems have been a disappointment for many enterprises
• The benefits of supplementing a provisioning system with an access governance solution
• How an automated access governance system can provide full visibility and control over user access across the enterprise
