Security - Access Management
All organisations have a need to provide internal and external
users with secure access to multiple business applications. This
presents significant costs as well as administration and security
overheads for managing access.
As an example, recent surveys have shown that as many as 33%
of user accounts are inactive in many organisations, as
a result of the challenges of user account management. With 75%
of fraudulent behaviour performed internally within organisations, an
Access Management solution is obviously critical to maintaining
a secure environment.
System Dynamics Access Management offering is derived from our
experience in addressing the major pain points of our clients.
Our Access Management offering includes the following features:
- Enterprise Single Sign-On -
Allow users to log into different applications on different platforms
with a single password (for example, their Windows password).
The solution maintains a high level of security by managing different
passwords for each application, transparently to the user.
- Desktop Password Reset -
Reduce helpdesk calls and keep users happy by allowing users
to reset forgotten Windows
passwords from a locked workstation.
- Provisioning -
Automate the creation, management and distribution of user accounts
and passwords based on policies and user roles.
- Secure Kiosk Access -
Provide secure Single Sign-On capability; automate application
termination and fast user switching.
- Advanced Authentication - Enhance
security with the use of Tokens, Smart Cards and Biometrics to
control access to applications.
Agile Security - Identity Management
Managing user identities is a key aspect to securing information.
As new users join an organisation, it is necessary to:
- Provide them with access to the applications they need.
- Ensure that they are given an appropriate level of access based
on their role.
- Most importantly, it is crucial to know when users no longer
require access to information so that their access can be revoked.
User management comes at a cost. Surveys have shown, for instance
that 50% of helpdesk calls are due to users forgetting
passwords and new user account creation costs as much as €200
per new employee.
System Dynamics has extensive experience in implementing Identity
Management solutions to reduce the costs and efforts of user management
for our clients. Our Identity Management offering provides the
following benefits:
- Quick, simple automated creation of new user accounts based
on their role in the organisation.
- Role-based provisioning to ensure that users are able to access
only the necessary applications depending on their role.
- Simplified “de-commissioning” of user accounts
for leavers.
- Simplified reporting and auditing on user access levels across
applications.
