EMA conducted primary research on current trends and outcomes from the adoption of identity and access governance practices to assist organizations with identifying essential approaches and solutions
Boulder, Colo., October 29, 2019 – Enterprise Management Associates (EMA), a leading IT and data management research and consulting firm, today announced it will host a research webinar titled “Achieving Effective Identity and Access Governance” featuring Steve Brasen, research director of endpoint and identity management at EMA.
Identity and access management (IAM) tools and practices have evolved to become the first line of defense for ensuring enterprise security. However, even the most comprehensive IAM solutions become ineffective if users and administrators are not following established processes. Identity and access governance solutions orchestrate the policy-based controls that enable organizations to meet enterprise IT security and compliance initiatives. While most security-conscious organizations recognize identity and access governance as critical to their business performance, many are unclear about which specific practices and solutions will provide the greatest benefits to mitigating risks without impeding user productivity and IT experiences.
During this webinar, Brasen will provide an overview of the key findings from new primary research on identity and access governance and reveal actionable guidance on which approaches are most effective for enabling policy management, security controls, and compliance achievement.
Topics of discussion will include:
- Defining the scope of identity and access governance, including essential processes and automation tools
- Identifying the most common identity and access governance requirements and challenges
- Establishing and simplifying comprehensive identity and access auditing and review processes
- Minimizing administration efforts and related costs while achieving identity and access governance goals
- Achieving high confidence in the effectiveness of IAM resources for attaining security assurance and regulatory compliance
- Enabling identity governance practices without disrupting business operations
The webinar is Tuesday, November 5 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern. Registration is available at http://info.www.enterprisemanagement.com/achieving-effective-identity-and-access-governance-webinar-pr
