When you're talking about IT security you're talking about access. And access is all about control. The proper people need access to the right systems and only those systems. Who's logging on, where, when and to what must be managed consistently. This is true whether you're in a mainframe, distributed or hybrid environment.
But, if you're like most companies, you don't want a platoon of people and associated costs to manage your IT security. You want it automated, integrated and scaleable.
Then there's compliance. You need to demonstrate - in an auditable fashion - that access to your systems, applications, data and even physical devices is adequately directed, monitored and administered. Can you produce logs and reports at a moment's notice, or do you have to devote countless man hours to respond to regulatory requests?
Learn from IT security specialist Reg Harbeck and Boston University's Joanne Kelly how automated identity and access management can help you meet critical access, management and monitoring compliance objectives. Find out how to implement an effective, flexible identity clean-up plan that maintains the integrity of user profiles, tracks changes and recommends an action plan whether you're working with CA's ACF2 and Top Secret or IBM's RACF.
