Latest Release of CA Identity Suite Strengthens
Security and Accelerates Time-to-Value with New Deployment
Options
CA Technologies today announced a new release of CA Identity
Suite that includes integration with CA Privileged Access Manager
for governance of privileged accounts and new, flexible deployment
options for agility, speed and ease-of-use in identity management
and access governance helping to save time and save money.
“Identity and access management technology is designed to both
protect and enable the business and its digital transformation
initiatives,” said Mordecai Rosen, senior vice president and
general manager, CA Security business. “The latest release of CA
Identity Suite enhances security and time-to-value by providing
privileged user governance to help mitigate the insider threat, and
proven workflow templates and a new virtual appliance option to
dramatically accelerate deployment. This allows our customers to
focus their time and resources on building new and compelling
applications and services, rather than deploying and integrating
the underlying infrastructure.”
Privileged User Governance Helps Mitigate Insider
Threat
CA Identity Suite’s integration with CA Privileged Access
Manager adds a layer of security and compliance measures for
privileged users. The integration addresses the need for consistent
governance processes and a holistic view of all user access –
privileged or not. With capabilities to manage access
certifications, requests, provisioning and de-provisioning, CA
Identity Suite helps ensure the practice of “least privilege”
applies to privileged users so they only have the access needed to
do to their jobs. It also helps prevent fraudulent or erroneous
actions with the ability to run segregation of duties checks on
privileged users and their roles, activity and access.
“Gartner believes that significant value is derived from
integrating PAM technologies with other technologies in your IAM
portfolio. One specific opportunity for integration involves PAM
and identity governance and administration (IGA). A combined PAM
and IGA solution provides organizations with increased control,
visibility and governance over all user accounts in their
environment, which helps reduce vulnerabilities such as an insider
threat,” wrote Lori Robinson, Gartner analyst, in Securing
Privileged Accounts Through PAM and IGA Integration.*
Simplified Deployment and Configuration Delivers Cost
Savings, Scalability
New deployment tools include a virtual appliance and proven,
pre-configured user scenarios that provide CA Identity Suite
customers with an enhanced user experience and the ability to meet
growing security and compliance needs quickly at a lower cost.
In a survey of more than 100 CA Identity Suite Users, 70 percent
report that using CA Identity Suite has reduced costs more than 25
percent.** The new virtual appliance reduces costs even further
with installation and configuration time going from days to minutes
so the solution is up and running faster to support business and
compliance needs. Organizations also can avoid high recurring
software licensing costs with the appliance providing pre-installed
instances of an operating system, application server and
directory.
Complementing the virtual appliance in driving fast
time-to-value, the latest release of CA Identity Suite includes
Deployment Xpress – a marketplace of pre-configured use case
scenarios drawn from hundreds of deployments. Instead of developing
common identity management scenarios from scratch, the pre-packaged
use cases meet most customer needs for common, consistent identity
management services and are easily and quickly deployed across the
entire enterprise. What can take weeks to configure with other
solutions can be done in just a few days with CA Identity Suite,
even if customers want to do customization on approval workflows or
branding.
