Attribute based​ authentication

Identity Access Management (IDAM) sits at the core of an organisation’s IT, security and business goals.

IDAM is central to government, finance and healthcare, where single sign on ensures that the right people get the access to the right information for the right reasons. Chief Information Officers, IT security and Chief Executive Officers need to deliver capabilities aligned with technology, security and business goals.

IDAM has already helped our clients to:

• Align their IDAM strategy with business goals
• Maximise interoperability with open standards
• Ensure robust authentication to regulatory standards
• Accelerate an improved customer experience

IDAM was an issue for our client, the NHS, where some NHS staff needed to log into as many as 15 different systems to do their job. This was time consuming and also required busy staff to remember multiple complex passwords or use the same one on multiple systems—potentially a cyber security risk. The NHS decided to drive a transformation programme for single sign on systems to enable NHS staff to spend more time caring and less time with administration.
