User access management excels but needs enhancements with integration capabilities
I was aware of that because I used to manage these solutions earlier on, but it was purchased by the Procurement team, so I was not involved in any of those.There are certain details I may not be able to disclose currently, but we can speak in general about a number of products and tools that are ongoing. I have not been using access management controls here, so I don't have the latest features or details or hands-on experience in that space. I cannot share all the details about the improvements in security operations since we were exploring some products, but I'm familiar with Saviynt as I was one of their partners for other solutions, and currently, I cannot disclose a lot of performance related to my current roles.

Overview

As an important part of the security ecosystem, Identity Management shields organizations against cyberattacks. In 2018 and 2019, Osterman Research published important findings indicating hackers’ increased preferences to target employees with social engineering being one of their preferred methods.

But identity governance is not an easy task. Companies that operate with disparate identity management sources tend to have inconsistent approaches to organizing identity attributes, security and access control and other important aspects of managing and governing an identity.
