Digital transformation is fundamentally changing how, from where and where employees work and access company information. Single sign-on, federations and the integration of cloud and on-premise applications to increase the productivity of your employees are just as important as the fact that it is always possible to see which employee can access which IT systems and data.
Employees expect to be able to gain additional access to data and applications quickly and easily and to be able to manage this themselves. In the age of the cloud, there are many logins to a variety of applications, from different users and from different devices. Always with the aim of accessing data that is ideally classified and encrypted. Which in turn means authentication for the end user. Intentional or unintentional misuse of authorizations and, in the worst case, hacked user accounts must be detected quickly and the resulting incidents must be actively tracked and dealt with. The digital identity and the associated authorizations are becoming the new perimeter and require adequate protection. A digital identity is not just an employee of your company, but can also be a partner, service provider or even your end customer. In addition, IoT devices also represent a digital identity and must be managed and monitored accordingly. Each type of identity requires its own management and has its own protection requirements. Whether employee, administrator or IoT device - PlanB. always follows the approach of “least privilege” and “zero standing access”. The transformation of your IT to a complete zero trust model is very difficult without automated management and regular verification of your identities supported by machine learning. True to the motto “Trust is good, control and visibility is better!” The experts at PlanB. support you in the area of Identity & Access Management on the path from wish to reality. In general, we rely on modern cloud technologies - both for our own developments in the area of Identity & Access and for partner solutions. Here, PlanB. relies on solutions from Omada and Thales.
