What is Identity Management ?

Every decision you make about giving people access to your business, and every effort you make to deliver services or content to people, is based on identity. You can't deliver resources to people-or effectively control access to those resources-unless you know who they are, how they relate to your business, and what they need from you.

The Identity Management solutions of OPNS place a robust identity and access management foundation at the heart of your IT infrastructure. This foundation unifies identity information and policies across all the different systems in your organization. It safeguards your resources from intruders. And it allows you to present your customers, partners, and employees with a dynamic combination of information, resources, and processes-all based on their relationship with your business.

You can give new employees fast, automatic access to everything they need to be totally productive on their first day. You can grant people inside and outside your organization safe, controlled access to your corporate resources-and build more productive, personalized relationships with everyone who matters to your business. You can allow your customers and partners to create and change their own profiles and preferences. And you can develop password management solutions that allow people to access all the information they need-across many different systems-using a single username and password.

The Identity Management solutions of OPNS deliver all these capabilities without disrupting your existing systems or forcing you to change the way you do business. And every component is designed to plug into-and work flawlessly with-the technology you already have in place.

This flexible, modular approach means you can add new capabilities that match your business requirements and meet your most pressing identity management needs. But no matter where you start, you'll always be creating a flexible, secure foundation that makes it easy to add new capabilities later.
