Identity and access management

Securely connect people, systems and things with digital identities to improve collaboration and prevent data breaches

Digital transformation can deliver many efficiencies and new sources of value, but it also presents an enormous challenge: providing secure access to information within and outside the firewall. IT must manage user access to internal and cloud-based applications among employees, customers and trading partners. In the digital economy, every person, system and device needs a digital identity.

The OpenText Identity and Access Management (IAM) Platform helps enterprises manage all the digital identities that request access to their systems and applications. With OpenText IAM in place, information access becomes manageable, governable and visible.

What is identity and access management?

Identity and access management creates and manages user accounts, roles and access rights for individual users, systems and devices. The best IAM solutions manage both employee identities within an organization and across an extended business ecosystem of customers and partners. IAM is also essential to manage the identities of IoT connected devices, provisioning and de-provisioning devices and sensor-based data streams.
