Identity and access management (IAM) is essential for securing the hybrid multicloud enterprise. Smart, modern identity solutions deliver a frictionless and secure experience for every user, asset and data interaction providing a foundation for a zero trust strategy.
IAM consists of the cybersecurity strategies and technologies for exerting control over the elevated access and permissions for users, accounts, processes, and systems across an IT environment. By dialing in the appropriate level of privileged access controls, IAM helps organizations condense their organization’s attack surface, and prevent, or at least mitigate, the damage arising from external attacks as well as from insider malfeasance or negligence.
