General information about Digital Identity

Managing the access to corporate resources and information is a serious challenge, especially in large companies with complex organizational structure and multiple information systems. Often, different administrators who do not communicate with each other, manage the access rights to different systems. This may cause errors or endanger the normal working environment for employees and the information security in the organization.

Here are some typical problems:

• Unnecessary delay in the granting of access rights to all systems to a newly appointed or a reappointed employee;
• Cumbersome procedure to set up the rights for temporary assignments – temporary replacements or project staff;
• Inconvenience, as employees need to log into several systems every day to do their work;
• Potential for internal security breaches, because the rights to all systems are defined manually and any change in employee status requires detailed re-examination of all systems;
• Complex procedures to suspend access to all systems, because the changes are made by multiple administrators.

The best answer to these concerns is the consolidated and delegated management of access and user rights through a single interface, while the information about the users, their rights and other objects (work place, activities, parameters, etc.) is stored in a single database. Furthermore, the digital identity management system automates the processes of creating user profiles (accounts) in all systems of the organization, of configuring and updating access rights in case of change, as well as short or long term termination of access if necessary.
