SAVYINT IAM
Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a vital part of modern IT that ensures employees and other authorized entities have secure access to company resources such as emails, data, and applications—regardless of their location or device.
The goal of SAVYINT IAM is to guarantee accurate and secure authentication and authorization at every access attempt. SAVYINT IAM empowers businesses to quickly and precisely verify user identities and their permissions – at the right time, on the right device.
How SAVYINT IAM Works
Identity Management
- Verifies login information against the personnel database—this data is continuously updated based on changes in staff, roles, and projects.
- Once the login information matches, SAVYINT IAM initiates user authentication with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), such as sending a one-time password (OTP) to the user’s phone.
Access Management
After authentication, the system determines which resources the user is authorized to access—authorization is based on factors such as job title, tenure, security clearance, or project.
Features
Identity lifecycle management
Supervises the creation, maintenance, and termination of digital identities for entities on a network.
Access control
Helps companies avoid the problems that can arise from overprovisioning by setting user access permissions
Identity governance
Monitors user activity to prevent unauthorized access and ensure regulatory compliance.
Authentication and authorization
- SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language): Enables Single Sign-On (SSO) functionality and is compatible with multiple operating systems and applications.
- OpenID Connect (OIDC): An extension of OAuth 2.0 that transmits tokens containing user information (name, email, photo, etc.) to simplify application authentication.
- SCIM (System for Cross-Domain Identity Management): A standardized identity management protocol that supports user account synchronization across multiple systems.
Why IAM matters?
Regulatory compliance
Helps companies comply with strict data access regulations by enabling formal access control policies and comprehensive activity tracking.
Data security
Financial APIs can integrate Enhances security by adding extra authentication layers and enforcing RBAC policies to limit unauthorized access.
Digital transformation
Centralizes access management to ensure secure access for diverse users and resources in complex IT environments while maintaining user experience.
