Hitachi ID Identity Manager

Hitachi ID Identity Manager is a complete identity management solution that automates and simplifies the tasks of managing users and entitlements across multiple systems and applications throughout the user lifecycle. Organizations depend on Identity Manager to ensure that users get appropriate access rights promptly and are deprovisioned reliably and completely.

Identity Manager implements the following business processes to drive changes to users and entitlements on systems and applications:

Automation: grant or revoke access based on data feeds.
Synchronization: keep identity attributes consistent across applications.
Self-service: empower users to update their own profiles.
Delegated administration: allow business stake-holders to request changes directly.
Certification: invite managers and application owners to review and correct entitlements.
Workflow: invite business stake-holders to approve or reject requested changes.

Hitachi ID Privileged Access Manager

Hitachi ID Privileged Access Manager is a system for securing access to privileged accounts. It works by regularly randomizing privileged passwords on workstations, servers, network devices and applications. Random passwords are encrypted and stored on at least two replicated vaults. Access to privileged accounts may be disclosed:

To IT staff, after they have authenticated and their requests have been authorized.
To applications, replacing embedded passwords.
To Windows workstations and servers, which need them to start services.

Password changes and access disclosure are closely controlled and audited, to satisfy policy and regulatory requirements.

Hitachi ID Group Manager

Hitachi ID Group Manager is a self-service group management solution. It allows users to request access to resources such as shares and folders, rather than requesting access to groups. Group Manager automatically maps requests to the appropriate security groups and invites group owners to approve or reject the proposed change.

Group Manager is available both as a stand-alone solution and as a no-cost module included with Identity Manager.
