Report Highlights
The pressure to provide better auditing and governance capabilities within IT
will lead to an increase in the level of integration between ID&AM and IT
compliance, IT governance and security management solutions.
Dynamic role management and access control is needed to deal with employee
access seamlessly and automate provisioning processes. These requirements are
not new, but 2008 will be the year when this technology will mature and grow.
ID&AM and IRM fit together nicely; access enforcement can be performed on the
application and individual file level while the ID credentials and access
policy are controlled by the ID&AM solution. This technology may not become
mainstream in 2008, but will certainly come to the forefront of IT security.
