Pulling it together when and where you need it? Not so easy. ### Slow Processes Are Risky Manual access approvals, onboarding delays, and ticket‑driven updates slow things down and invite error-prone risk. ### Inconsistent UX Breaks Trust When identity isn’t consistent and tailored, users get frustrated and security policies aren’t equally enforced across channels.

Identity management is the collection and governance of identity data and using that data to onboard users, manage changes and remove access across systems. ### How is identity management different from IGA? Identity governance and administration (IGA) focuses on certifications, attestations, and governance workflows. Identity management supplies the data and automation layer that feeds those processes. ### Can this improve personalization? Absolutely. Relationship management links user identities and attributes to applications so that users are presented with tailored experiences. ### Do I need to replace my directory? No. You have the option to go all-in, but you can synchronize your legacy sources to our unified directory and modernize over time.
