An implementation strategy for identity and access management includes the following:
Training and support: Providers of IAM systems often provide training along with customer service after installation.
Zero-trust: When implementing a strategy for IAM, it is important to include a zero-trust policy where the IAM solution constantly secures identity and access points and provides ongoing monitoring. This way, each employee’s access is managed more easily.
Secure access: Authentication is key in securing your organization’s systems. An IAM should record all aspects of a login attempt, including location, time, device, etc., either by implementing multi-factor authentication or using another adaptive authentication process.
Privileged accounts: Accounts with special privileges may need different access controls for sensitive information. If this is the case for your company, your IAM implementation strategy should include a tier of security and support to accommodate their status.
