In an article published on Carahsoft.com, Briguglio wrote that agencies should manage user access to their information technology environments and one way to do that is adopting identity and access management tools that could enable them to maintain security while advancing their missions.
According to SailPoint’s federal CTO, IAM tools like the company’s IdentityIQ could enable agencies to establish a governance process for user access while ensuring compliance with the government’s regulatory requirements.
He stated that IdentityIQ helps institute identity governance through entitlement management, automated provisioning, policy enforcement and deprovisioning.
“In addition, IdentityIQ supports risk-based policies that give agencies the ability to identify potential risks or anomalies in user access. This critical feature for security operations can help agencies detect potential breaches or misuse of access privileges,” Briguglio noted.
The SailPoint executive stated that the company’s technology supports UberEther’s IAM Advantage platform, forming “the governance layer for web access management or privileged access management solutions to verify that a particular user should continue to have access to specified resources.”
