What is Broadcom Identity and Access Management?
Organizations need to launch new applications quickly in order to connect their customers, employees, and partners to their services anywhere, anytime, and anyplace. Unfortunately, the velocity required to deliver these service is outpacing the ability for traditional security infrastructure to keep up, leaving many modern applications and environments vulnerable to attacks. Symantec Identity & Access Management mitigates these security risks by applying zero trust principles - continually verifying every user and device requesting access, enforcing least privileged access, and protecting against the assumed breach.

What differentiates Broadcom Identity and Access Management from other similar products?
It provides centralized control over authentication, authorization and user provisioning which makes it easier to manage user identities and enforce security policies across multiple applications and environments.

Before choosing it make sure your organization has clear identity policies and the technical resources to manage it. Plan integrations with your application in advance and ensure your team is properly trained as the platform is powerful but can be complex to implement and maintain.
