The Compliance Challenge
Regulation Acronym Salad:  GLBA/HIPAA/SoX404PCI/ ISO/IEC 27001, BS 7799, /IEC 17799:2005, PCI-DSS etc. require companies to manage user access to regulated data.  This means controlling and monitoring user privileges to critical systems.

Health Care, Finance, Education and other organizations are facing a real challenge to not only comply with appropriate regulations, but also to PROVE compliance to these regulations.

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a set of minimum security guidelines put in place to protect sensitive credit card data. Companies are required to have the tools to ensure continuous monitoring, identify, report and investigate audit trails and conduct risk analytics to protect critical data. The all-in-cost of a fraudulent or erroneous data breach can range from $182-$350 per data record.

The Efficiency Challenge: SO MANY SYSTEMS, SO LITTLE TIME
When considering an Identity Management initiative comprehensive enough to achieve regulatory compliance, the task seems impossible since most organizations have critical business systems that don't fit the mainstream protocols for centralized network directory structures like Active Directory (AD) and LDAP based directory structures.  These would be isolated and disparate identity stores across applications and network domains.  When you take this requirement and spread it across thousands of users and, potentially, hundreds of applications, the idea of becoming compliant and proving compliance seems unrealistic.  And this is just considering internal employees with internally controlled applications.

The Security Challenge: IT'S ALWAYS MOVING
Controlling centralized network and system access to temporary users; like students, auditors and contractors with NAC deployments is another key requirement. Provisioning access should be managed and documented for compliance and audit more accurately.  Enterprise applications no longer are with in the corporate boundary, managing hosted applications which are not integrated with Active Directory, or LDAP becomes a challenge. Group management, provisioning access and periodic updates pose yet another problem.

Enterprises need centralized management across all applications and network directories regardless of location, age, application or ownership. Bring all of these together with Self Service password administration, regulatory compliance tracking and reporting, and you've got the solution that you need.
