For organizations and government agencies alike, strong identity management is paramount. Millions of people share sensitive, personal information with commercial and public bodies every day, so companies and public sector agencies have a responsibility to secure their assets. This is where ICAM and FICAM come in. What is ICAM? Identity, credential, and access management (ICAM) is a set of security principles that helps organizations manage, monitor, and secure access to their resources. ICAM lets the right individuals access permitted resources for the right reasons, protecting organizations from unwanted access attempts. What is FICAM? FICAM—short for federal identity, credential, and access management—applies ICAM policies, tools, and systems to federal agencies. It allows these organizations to control access to protected resources such as files, networks, servers, and physical spaces. In this post, we’ll explore these principles in greater detail, consider the benefits of implementing ICAM and FICAM programs, and guide you through.
