“We were confident that our ‘one card' concept would win over all the shareholders in the project,” said Identita CEO Rocky Stefano.
Converged IAM creates one identity assigned to one credential that encompasses all of an identity's logical and physical access privileges. When one set of privileges changes, whether physical or logical, that alteration triggers automatic, complementary revisions in the other set.
Convergence of physical and logical identities is a nascent, but logical and likely outcome of the implementation of identity and access management systems. A sensible reason for converging identities is that when disconnected logical and physical identities proliferate, it's time-consuming, expensive and inefficient to manage them. That's true for IT, for physical security, for risk managers and business units.
