Now that the federal government is embarking on identity management initiatives for HSPD-12 logical access control compliance, agencies need to seek solutions that will be effective, easy to deploy, within budget and (most importantly) will allow these projects to get going quickly and efficiently.

A majority of the problems that plagued related identity management efforts in the commercial world focused on the fact that deploying an identity access management solution was costly, consumed significant IT staff resources and often was disruptive to day-to-day network activity.

These problems can be avoided with Securify's identity-based discovery and verification solution. Securify has gained the distinction throughout the government as a powerful, cost effective and easy-to-deploy product - best characterized by its current monitoring of over 2 million federal government network users.

As your agency moves forward with HSPD-12 logical access control or other identity access initiatives, consider how Securify can lay the groundwork for a successful start.

Continuous Monitoring of User Activity

• Unlike network access control solutions (NAC), Securify provides a continuous view of who is doing what and where from the instant a user accesses the network. After user admission to the network, Securify monitors and verifies that user behavior is in accordance with the agency's controls.

Facilitates Role Definition

• A first step in an identity access management project is to define user roles - which requires an understanding of the relationship between users, assets and applications. Securify's powerful discovery capability provides this initial, real-time understanding quickly and easily.

Simplifies Role Testing

• After roles are defined, a challenge is testing these newly-defined roles prior to applying them across the organization. Without a good way of testing before deployment, organizations run the risk that, once applied, these new roles will cause user disruptions. Securify offers a unique approach for testing roles in advance of applying them to eliminate the chance of user disruption.

Easy to Deploy

• Securify is an agentless, out-of-band, identity-aware solution. These benefits are a key factor why Securify has distinguished itself across the government as an easy-to-deploy product. Securify begins delivering results in a matter of hours of initial deployment - not the weeks or months that have plagued many identity management projects.
