Product: CA Identity Manager
Family: CA Identity Manager

Product Description: CA Identity Manager provides an integrated identity management platform that streamlines and simplifies the administration of internal and external users and their access to applications and resources across the entire enterprise – from the web to the mainframe. CA Identity Manager provides automated identity management services (creation, modification, and deletion or suspension of user accounts and entitlements), based upon the user’s relationship with the firm, whether they are employees, contractors, customers or business partners, and their respective identity management related roles and responsibilities.

Performance: Identity Manager has proven scalability to manage hundreds of thousands or even millions of user identities and their entitlements to enterprise resources.

Interfaces: Various SDKs are available to generate connectors to target systems. They include a comprehensive C/C++ , ODBC , and LDAP SDKs . Identity Manager also supports SPML and a Web service interface which can be used to integrate it into the other identity management applications and processes of the organization.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Delegated User Administration- Enables organizations to widely distribute user administration tasks to other people and organizations, whether they are inside or outside the enterprise, while maintaining tight central control, in order to improve the managerial scalability of IT and improve security.
• User Self-Service- Enables users to manage their own profile, password and entitlements in order to drive down support costs .
• Integrated Workflow- Enables the automation and enforcement of user administration processes and provides a customizable platform that supports the unique user administration policies of each organization.
• Password Management – Provides extensive password management services, including self-service, forgotten password support, password synchronization, password composition rules, GINA support, and others which improve security and reduce the workload on the IT Helpdesk.
• Structured Management Model- Provides a customizable but structured model for user and administrator roles and responsibility management, leveraging key constructs such as roles, rules, groups, organizations, tasks, and role-based access control (RBAC).
• Flexible Security Policies- Enables security administrators to flexibly define security policies, including those that maintain segregation of duties, and automate their enforcement.
• Compliance Reporting- Comprehensive, out-of-the-box reports support compliance efforts by documenting that identity controls are in place and working as intended.
• Comprehensive Support of Target Systems – Supports a comprehensive array of client-server, mainframe, and Web applications, which eases integration into heterogeneous customer environments.
• Web Services Interface- Enables identity management to be deployed as a Web service to facilitate the broad roll-out of identity management services with minimal impact to applications and the developers that build and maintain them.

Highlights: Identity Manager is an integrated part of CA’s comprehensive identity and access management solution (which includes components such as eTrust SiteMinder, eTrust Access Control, and others) which enables organizations to incrementally rollout the solution for immediate benefit, while simultaneously building out the organization’s identity management enterprise infrastructure.

End-Users: CA Identity Manager is best suited for organizations that must manage a large and diverse group of internal and external users accessing applications and resources that reside across the enterprise- from the Web to the mainframe.
