Why IAM?

Regulatory requirements, digital government, and rising cybersecurity risks have accelerated change across state and local government. Digital government is on the rise, and states need to deliver seamless and secure access to all residents. Remote work is becoming standard in many state agencies, and workers need secure access from anywhere. Once seen as peripheral to digital transformation, IAM technology is becoming increasingly critical to enabling secure and easy access to more people, delivering trusted experiences and improving security. Additionally, Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliance requires the IAM vendor have a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) in place to protect health information within digital identity. The BAA is a legally binding contract between a covered entity and a business associate outlining permissible uses and disclosures of Protected Health Information (PHI) and ensuring its appropriately safeguarded for the protection of citizens.
