Federated Identity Management (FIM) Solutions

Our FIM solutions balance availability and protection in the distributed enterprise, so that business partners can share applications and data without unnecessary risk or administrative burden.

The New Architecture of Trust

In collaborating with business partners and clients, organizations often need to share information assets. But this sharing can lead to risking unauthorized access, propagating Personally Identifiable Information (PII) or creating burdensome administration processes.

Today, building a new identity architecture means working with systems and protocols that allow identity federation. It's the linchpin of digital convergence and a critical technology of the modern era.

Balancing Availability and Protection

Our Federated Identity Management (FIM) offering is an accelerated, operationally-proven solution that fulfills both the business and technical requirements for federation with business partners and other outside parties for access to select applications and data. It enables an organization to establish federated trusted relationships across all software vendor solutions for all trusted partners. It accomplishes this through a repeatable, disciplined framework that other FIM solutions lack. This means:

• A structured approach to create and maintain digital trust relationships between federated partners
• Framework templates to enable interoperability between vendor solutions and technical security standards, and to meet logical security requirements.

The result: An organization can assess environments and business relationships quickly and effectively, and optimize solutions accordingly.
