FISMA Compliance in Cross-Platform Environments
Addressing FISMA's four main IT security requirements by centralizing identity and access management leveraging Active Directory.
FISMA compliance can be costly and time-consuming, especially in IT environments comprised of disparate systems, databases and applications. Using multiple identity stores (e.g., LDAP, NIS, /etc/passwd, etc.) for UNIX/Linux and Mac systems and non-Microsoft databases and web and enterprise applications makes it difficult to prove to FISMA auditors that your information is secure.
In this complimentary webinar, David McNeely, Centrify Director of Product Management, explains how Centrify's solutions provide a powerful, cost-effective, standards-based way to address the four key identity and access management provisions of FISMA in distributed, cross-platform environments.
Topics Covered
- The security and compliance challenges caused by fragmented identity and access management within the distributed environment
