CA and Identity Manager
|
Computer Associates has launched Identity Manager with the aim of users managing risk, regulatory compliance and reduce costs. The software is used to automate the management of user identities across the enterprise. As their user populations, infrastructure, and application portfolios become increasingly complex, enterprise IT organizations are finding it difficult to simultaneously meet the needs of the business, ensure information security, comply with data privacy regulations, and keep costs down, said Toby Weiss, senior vice president and general manager of CA's Security Management business unit. "CA Identity Manager directly addresses this pressing, four-fold challenge by automating identity-related management processes across the lifecycle of the user." Identity management automation processes leads on to improved compliance and security. Processes can then be made repeatable and auditable. Segregation of duties or entitlement re-certifications are highlighted by CA as examples of processes that can be automated. Our identity and access management initiatives have enabled us to achieve operational efficiencies and reduce the burden on information security administrators by streamlining and standardizing the process of managing our users and automating key identity processes, said Jacob Goodson, information security officer at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System. "By providing a comprehensive set of IAM solutions, CA has enabled us to reduce the cost and complexity of our identity management implementation, and we are looking forward to further expanding our IAM initiatives with CA Identity Manager."
