The IAM project in a key banking organization

Concept Data designed and implemented an Identity and Access Management (IAM) system for one of the key banking organizations. It was the first IAM implementation of such a large scope performed by the company.

The Identity and Access Management system is designed to operate all processes related to sign-on, access privileges and user data management. This solutions allows administrators to grant relevant privileges to users depending on their duties and tasks in the organization and data access they need.

The financial and banking sectors work with particularly sensitive data. Moreover, they face a large number of external and internal attacks aimed at the theft of authentication data and funds. That is why special control and visibility are necessary for such organizations to know who has access to critical information and when. This allows to prevent data leakage, explains Dariusz Bocheńczak, Managing Director at Concept Data.

The IAM system is the central database containing information on employees as well as their current and historical access to systems within the organization and the effective security policies. The solution enables real-time monitoring of changes in privileges, estimating risk related to the granted access privileges and identification of security policy breaches.
