Identity and access governance (IAG)
In today's digital world, data security and confidentiality are major concerns for businesses and organizations. Identity and access management is a crucial aspect of this security, as it enables control over who has access to which resources, and how this access is used.
Identity and Access Governance (IAG) consists of putting in place a structure and processes to manage identities, i.e. the personal and professional information of individuals, and their access rights to the organization's resources. This governance is essential because it enables :
- Reduce the risk of loss or theft of sensitive information;
- Control who has access to which resources;
- Ensure data security and confidentiality.
