IAM can be divided into two categories: Identity Management and
Access Management.
Access Management comprises Authentication, Single Sign-On,
Session Management, Password Services, Authorization.
User Management comprises user self-service, delegated
administration, user/role management, provisioning, data
synchronization and password management.
IAM has clear benefits in terms of cost savings, services
enablement, reduce risks and productivity improvement.
Recent trend shows a product convergence in the IAM
marketplace.
IAM has become practical and doable today, but selecting the
right product mix could be challenging
Users and Vendors alike are recommended to choose skilled
personnel to participate in IAM implementation projects.
Many stakeholders requires good communication skills
Change of administration approach could be political
Data correctness, ownership and privacy
Need people with skills from both world of IT
infrastructure and system development
Never underestimate the time required to do testing
Never neglect IT requirements (e.g. operational,
deployment, high availability, etc.)
Watch out software compatibility
Customers not only want a resolution to a problem but
also want an answer why the proposed solution is a
better one
