Identity Management Practice

First Soft Solutions thought to help public and private sector leaders solve business problems related to individual identity management. The technical difficulty of how to manage in a deterministic way entrenched behavior among people is complex. We would expect a good identity management solution to take on new capabilities. The technologies aren't difficult to install, the setup and configuration varies for each client. The efficient and secure management of identity information is a critical prerequisite for effective access control and provision management in enterprise IT systems. Identity management projects tend to belong, and indeed may neverend,as deliverables are continually added over the life of the system.

First Soft Solutions worked hand-in-hand with its client to analyze the client's identity management challenges and recommend strategies. Our specialists resources in Sun Java™ and Oracle ™ Identity Management Suite can enable organizations to manage, protect, store, verify and share identity information throughout the enterprise and across extranets.
