An Executive Guide To Identity Access Management

In this high-level executive guide to Identity and Access Management, we discuss the good the bad and the ugly aspects. We consider why you need IAM, how it helps with security, compliance, governance and importantly how it can save you a fortune in time, effort and money on compliance auditing. However, it's not all good news, so we will discuss the problems you will face, the reasons for the high failure rates in deployment and the best practices you can follow to mitigate the risks of failure. Nonetheless, in this second edition, we contemplate how deploying IAM will reap benefits in the enterprise and discuss strategy and best practices for deployment in the cloud, commerce, IoT, and hybrid enterprise scenarios. We will also contemplate IDaaS and other next-generation approaches to IAM such as Identity Relationship Management (IRM).
