Hitachi ID Systems to present webinar on best practices approach to identity management: program vs. project
Free webinar will outline why an IAM system should be managed as a
long-term program rather than as discrete projects
CALGARY, Canada, May 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ – As a leading vendor of identity
and access-management systems, Hitachi ID Systems has deep expertise on the specific challenges institutions face in
meeting their IAM requirements. A core concern that organizations face
when considering IAM deployment is whether to approach implementation
as a variety of discrete projects or an integrated long term-program.
With a customer list that boasts more than 900 organizations worldwide
in a variety of industries, representing over 11 million licensed users
of its IAM systems, the company is a strong proponent of a long term,
integrated program-based, rather than project-based, approach. In an
upcoming webinar, Hitachi ID will present  attendees with the rationale
for this approach.
On Thursday, May 26 at 1pm ET, Idan Shoham, CTO, Hitachi ID Systems, will lead a discussion covering where IAM fits in
an organization, why it should be permanently staffed, and how to
develop a business case to fund a long-running program.
“At Hitachi ID Systems, we encourage our customers to think of their IAM
system as a cohesive program, not a project,” said Idan Shoham, CTO and cofounder. “They may well have an initial deployment project but, as soon as
that’s done, they will start their second-phase implementation, then
the third-phase, and so on. A successful IAM system is a living
process, with new features, integrations, business processes and
versions being implemented along the way.”
