Service detail
With hundreds or even thousands of employees joining or leaving companies every year, IT managers are constantly challenged to protect sensitive data while ensuring that employees can access the information they need to do their jobs. Adding more operational staff to execute manual processes is not an option for most companies, as manual processes are usually costly, inefficient and risky.
IBM ISS Identity and Access Management Services for user provisioning can help your organization manage the cost and risks associated with establishing, managing and closing user accounts through automation.
Highlights

Automate user provisioning and boost security
Poor identity management practices can harm an organization in many ways. The inability to maintain appropriate access as employees change jobs can inhibit productivity. Failure to revoke access upon employee termination creates security gaps, and ad-hoc manual processes may fail to comply with regulations. Poorly integrated account administration can also hinder business flexibility, making you less competitive.
Whether you need help with planning and design, implementation or ongoing identity management, IBM Internet Security Systems can help you establish automated processes and policies for managing user identity from initial sign-on to termination.
Leveraging IBM Tivoli Identity Manager software and other third-party products, we establish automated processes based on user role authorization and predefined policies, develop workflow escalation criteria for determining when human intervention is required, and implement consistent policy administration and enforcement processes.
