Managing access rights through business roles is fundamental to an overall governance strategy. However, many corporate IT security professionals still regard role-based access and identity management as hopelessly complex. Moderated by Kuppinger Cole Founder and Senior Partner Martin Kuppinger, this webinar will gather a panel of industry thought leaders to discuss how organizations can most effectively manage access rights through business roles to achieve simplified and sustainable access governance, risk and compliance.

The 90-minute webinar will also outline the five most important issues for a successful role management project, as well as explain the results from a recent Kuppinger Cole survey about enterprise role management. The survey findings seek to illustrate where most companies currently stand with their role management projects, the key issues they are seeking to address, and the technologies and processes they are deploying to accomplish their goals.

“Role lifecycle management is an important business process for reducing access risk and maintaining compliance with regulations,” said Deepak Taneja, president and CTO of Aveksa. “Through this webinar, Kuppinger Cole is providing a valuable information resource that combines their research on identity management with informed discussion from role management leaders in the industry. I look forward to sharing Aveksa’s insights on successful customer deployments to help viewers better understand how they can benefit from role management in their enterprise.”
