Federated Identity Management
market-segment
Value Proposition
Enables the separation of roles between the identity provider who manages the digital identities and the service provider who provides the IT service. This setup allows identities managed in one information security domain to be recognized in another, thus allowing entities to collaborate between organizations and work across IT systems.
Efficiency gains - Streamline collaboration between organizations by allowing entities of one organization to work for another while streamlining the lifecycle management of their identities.
Enhanced privacy - The information related to persons whose identities are onboarded via federation may be reduced.
Enhanced security - The management of the lifecycle of identities in another organization is difficult to manage, leading to orphan accounts and other similar issues.
