Many companies — even those that are not Rational users
— develop their own applications. While those applications cross different industries and functions — they all share something a common: a need to have login, verification, authentication, and password reset.
Developers often spend time developing the code for this: this means they are spending valuable development time and resources, but also this tends to create siloed security systems. The policies are different. The data isn’t connected. And upgrade and changes need to be done application by application.
Doesn’t it make sense for developers to use a common code base for login and password reset? And doesn’t it make sense for IT managers to have a centralized policy server that coordinates all those login and passwords?
Companies that use IBM Access Manager are able to develop applications faster while improving security and automating IT processes for managing those applicaitons.
Key thought questions:
- Do you have internal applications being developed that require logins, identity management, authentication, or password resets?
- Does it makes sense for developers to write those funcitons every time an application is created?
- Would IT save time and resources if they can centrally manage the logsin to the different applications?
