Manage Invalid or Orphan Accounts
An orphan account is an account found on a computing platform that cannot be linked with any of the existing user in an enterprise. Majority of the security threat comes from insiders within the enterprise. These accounts can be used to access the secured resources of the network and can cause security threat. It is very difficult to track such users. Dormant and orphan accounts must be reliably deactivated, and privilege creep must be addressed.

Effectively creating or deleting user accounts across the projects and networks
Enterprise has various applications, customers and domains. Lack of centralized account creation, deletion, disablement would require elaborate process and time to act when any changes have to be made to user access. It currently spends 10 days to perform create account, deletion of account etc., but where as IMAG takes less than 2 days.

As in when admin needs to perform above tasks, the admin needs to go through two different steps
  • Admin needs to login to the respective applications individually.
  • Need to search for the user for whom he would like to reset the password or perform any user id related tasks.
