The Market

Analyst firm IDC expects this market to grow from $2.6 billion in 2002 to nearly $6 billion by 2006

Based on a Gartner survey of 30 senior security executives in large companies, many organizations already have internal secure identity management initiatives underway:

• 80% of Financial Services• 70% of Retail• 70% of High Tech

What the analysts are saying…

“The typical enterprise must manage increasingly virtual relationships with employees, contractors, customers, partners, suppliers, and a variety of other network constituents. The old way of thinking about corporate boundaries and network security—the firewall as an impenetrable perimeter—no longer apply.

Suddenly, the ability to manage identity has a direct impact on your company’s brand and its ability to adapt to new business models. Do it well and your company can make money in new ways. Do it poorly and your company will be damaged severely.”

Cognizance Multifactor Authentication

Provides the following authentication methods out-of-the-box:PasswordSingle-use passwordSmart card and USB tokenVirtual token (encrypted containers with the user identity)Digital certificatesBiometrics

Supports any arbitrary combination of the above authentication methods

Allows the use of multiple alternative authentication methods per user

Supports interface for plug-in authentication methods

Cognizance Role-Based Authorization

Dynamic and static policy elements Authentication method, time, date, IP address and protocolsAutomatic policy generation based on business rulesUser sets allow combining users from different groups and directories

Role Based Authorization and Access Control (RBAC)

Maps complex policies and business rules to multiple rolesSimplifies policy managementReduces the number of policy relationshipsSimplifies application managementProvide both application role and role application views of the enterprise access control

Benefit Analysis

Productivity increase – AdministratorSingle administration tool increase administrator efficiencyRole-based access control simplifies policy and application managementAutomatic policy generation reduces administrator workload Unified user identity model reduces number of duplicate accountsSingle deployment installs multiple integrated applications, including network logon, SSO, VPN, user self-service and PKI clientEasy and flexible smart card/virtual token deploymentSimplified PKI deployment and use via user self-servicesUser self-service tool reduces administrative workloadBuilt-in enterprise SSO eliminates multiple password requirementsUse of smart cards or biometrics can reduce need for passwords

Benefit Analysis –– Continued

Security benefitsCentralization of the information securityConsistent security policy throughout the enterpriseFlexible security targets specific danger areas, such as external access or after hours, without complicating regular user accessStrong multifactor user authenticationEasy deployment of smart card/virtual token combination

Page 21: Cognizance Identity and Access Management Identity Management ● Authentication ● Authorization ● Administration The next generation security solution .

Benefit Analysis –– Continued

Architecture benefitsFramework approach: expandable architecture via Cognizance SDK

Add custom data sources, authentication methods, policies, and applications

High performance authorization architecture does not require fast connection between Cognizance server and authorized applications

Special case: user identity on a smart card does not require connection to Cognizance server

Large enterprise scalability with a standard load balancer and multiple installations of Cognizance serverCan be used as part of managed services to provide security services to multiple enterprises
