Specializations › Information security › Centralized management of users and their privileges

In information systems with a big number of users, various resources and applications, a need often arises to use the unlinked bases of the users of these resources. This makes the task of managing user accounts involved, and requires significant resources (creating, modifying and deleting users, and their resource access privileges). Absence of a unique base and a unique point for management of users not only increases the cost of user account management, but makes it impossible to maintain a unique information resources access policy.

To address these problems, a unique system of managing and controlling user accounts is created (authentication information, digital certificates, and access attributes) and integrated with a subsystem for controlling access to different resources and services: file servers, DBM servers and application servers, mail and Internet services, and print services.

Such a solution provides a centralized method for creating and managing user accounts, synchronize and update user data in different subsystems, cut the cost of managing user bases, and effect centralized control of user access to different resources and services of the information system.

The centralized user management system can also be integrated with authentication systems to ensure reliable user authentication during access to resources, as well as to create a basis for building a Single Sign-On system.
