Identity Management Detective

Jackson Shaw asks "is there a role for an identity management detective?" Although I suspect it was mostly a rhetorical question, the answer is absolutely. You may have seen my recent post on Policing the Power of Identity. The challenge that Jackson describes is exactly what we have in mind when we talk about policing identity. Many of NetVision's customers recognize that they can't provide answers to basic questions about what identity controls are in place, what are people doing on the network and what power has been given to users. The combination of controls, behavior and power is what makes up the power of identity. And our customers are definitely finding value in tools that provide policing/detective capabilities around that power.
