Identity and Access Management
Overview
Identity Management is not just hype, nor is it a new phenomenon.
Access control applications have been in use for several decades and are embedded in many
organisations’ infrastructure, but they are becoming increasingly difficult to manage.
In a typical business environment today, organisations manage thousands of users, who may have access to
hundreds of applications which in turn means that there are potentially hundreds of thousands of possible
authorisations (access rights and permissions within an application) that need maintaining. This leads to the
question – “How do you manage and control who has access to what in an efficient and effective way?” This is a
question which we at KPMG help you answer
