Identity Security
Just as the fingerprint became the globally unique identification mechanism, digital identity became the unique identifier in the technology world. With an ever-increasing number of technology assets, companies are facing a problem of lack of control and protection of accounts and access to these assets, and this presents a huge security vulnerability. In a nutshell, identity security allows you to have an eagle-eye view of who has access to what and whether that access is appropriate for that person, so you can then grant or withdraw permissions in accordance with current operating policies.
Why should be care ?
Remember the hack that hit Twitter's biggest accounts (including Bill Gates, Elon Musk, and Barack Obama) in 2020? In case you don't, here's a quick rundown: A group of hackers managed to infiltrate Twitter and, through the accounts of many famous people, posted a text that said something like this, "Today I'm feeling generous, for every $1,000 USD you deposit to account XXX, I'll deposit $2,000 USD back to you." How did they accomplish this? They gained access to several employees' accounts through phishing (fake emails) and simply navigated the system to find loopholes to infiltrate while NO ONE WAS ANYTHING. This was a very popular case because it involved a well-known social network, but in reality, this happens every day all over the world, and "the average time to identify a breach is 207 days" - IBM. This means your company could be compromised right now and you wouldn't even realize it. Identity security gives you visibility that allows you to identify breaches quickly and in a timely manner.

Centralized Visibility
Identity governance solutions are designed to provide enterprise-level visibility into corporate resources. This is achieved by aggregating and correlating identity information across all environments, both in the data center and in the cloud. This provides a single, comprehensive view of "who has access to what" and whether that access is appropriate. Having this information centralized enables business and IT users to identify high-risk employee groups, security policy violations, and inappropriate access privileges, and then take steps to minimize these risks.
Identity governance solutions provide consistent processes for review, access requests, approvals, and password management. These processes are governed by common policies and an established role and risk model. Having strong identity governance will ensure processes are carried out accurately and efficiently, consistently enforcing policies, controlling role-based access, managing risk, and maintaining traceability for auditors.
Identity governance solutions are designed to be used by business users, a requirement for effective identity governance and oversight. Business leaders can request, approve, and review access using user-friendly interfaces, within a clear business context. They also have access to reports, dashboards, and analysis tools that provide the organization with the information and metrics necessary to strengthen internal controls and reduce risks.
