Evidian announces AccessMaster 7.0 software suite for identity and access management

By introducing its Virtual Identity Manager (VIM) solution, Evidian simplifies and accelerates the deployment of secure Identity and Access Management policies within large organizations
 

Paris, May 24, 2005. Evidian announces the availability of AccessMaster 7.0, the new release of its identity and access management software suite, and confirms its leading position worldwide among the suppliers of identity and access management (IAM) software.

"Flexible management of identity and access is a key factor for the performance of organizations " said Philippe Pradat, Director of Bull Evidian Product Lines. "Until our announcement, the management of a large number of users could only be achieved through complex directory synchronization solutions. Evidian's Virtual Identity Manager (VIM) removes this constraint and offers a simplified approach that brings the best of both worlds, and enables the unified deployment of security policies."

With the interconnection of all directory information sources, through virtualization, Evidian’s VIR makes it possible to manage information wherever it is located, in a consistent manner. It also removes the obligation to deploy complex and costly synchronization policies via meta-directories and completes the virtual directory concept, associated with the security policy, while offering secure management, storage and provisioning of both sensitive data (certificates, passwords,...) and non-sensitive data (e-mail accounts, privileges,…).

Organizations now have a simple and flexible way to implement the security policy that best fits their business processes and infrastructures.

In addition to its Virtual Identity Manager, AccessMaster’s 7.0 release includes several other innovations, among them the automatic definition of provisioning rules and the launch of new generic security web agents. These and others strengthen AccessMaster's position as the leading global, modular, and natively integrated IAM software suite.
