  Managing user identities is a top priority for many businesses today. People need to access multiple systems and resources on the corporate network, using different types of devices. But because many of these systems don't communicate with each other, it's not uncommon to have multiple identities for the same person. As a result, managing these redundant identities becomes complex, wastes time, and increases security risks due to errors.  | |  | |
