Identity management

Identity management is a set of processes, policies, and technologies involved in managing and controlling user identities within an organization’s digital environment. It encompasses the administration of user accounts, authentication mechanisms, password management, and user lifecycle management, including provisioning and de-provisioning. Identity management addresses security, compliance, and privacy standards while ensuring that users are allowed access privileges based on their roles and responsibilities. Effective identity management enhances security, streamlines user access, and reduces the risk of unauthorized access or data breaches.
