Andrew Cameron, G. Hernandez Williamson · 2020
In this section of the BoK, you will explore several conceptual architectures and how they enable IAM solutions across your enterprise. IAM touches all aspects of an organization’s IT environment whether it’s the HR system, email system, phone system or corporate applications, they all need to interface to the IAM environment. Whether it is by supporting the enforcement of user provisioning rules or validating the access of non-corporate users, IAM will always play a role in making IT operations efficient and secure. An architectural approach will heighten the probability that a consistent and comprehensive IAM solution will be achieved.
