Business Wire
CA, Inc. (NASDAQ: CA) today announced a deal with Eurekify that
will give customers a more efficient approach for implementing an
identity management solution to cost-effectively manage and control
the identity lifecycle and demonstrate compliance. The combination
of CA Identity Manager with Eurekify Enterprise Role Manager
provides customers with a system for �smart provisioning,� which
means customers have the ability to clean up the identity data
first and then model the roles with the best available information.
This facilitates effective automation of the provisioning process
and enhances identity lifecycle management. Under the agreement, CA
will resell Eurekify Enterprise Role Manager, helping customers
quickly discover, model, and manage corporate roles using
Eurekify�s advanced pattern recognition technology. Eurekify role
data will be fed into CA Identity Manager, which customers use to
easily manage identity lifecycles from creation to modification to
removal. Eurekify analytical capabilities will also weave easily
into CA Identity Manager processes to recommend roles and check
their consistency in real time. The agreement also simplifies the
buying experience for customers who want to deal with a single
vendor for procurement, deployment, service and support of their
identity management needs. "One of the largest challenges to any
organization deploying an identity management capability is
defining, leveraging, and sustaining business roles," said Kevin
Kampman, senior analyst at Burton Group. "Determining the
appropriate business alignment and characteristics is an intensive
effort, one that requires overall commitment, analytical skills,
and appropriate technical capabilities for the discovery and
sustenance of this information on an on-going basis. Role
management complements identity management solutions by aligning
business responsibilities to access privileges. Overall, these help
to streamline administrative provisioning, auditing and attestation
so that the right tools are matched to the right business
expectations." ABSA Bank in South Africa, a CA and Eurekify
customer, understands the value of an integrated CA and Eurekify
solution. �Provisioning and de-provisioning is identified as a
critical function for ABSA Bank. In order to prevent role or
segregation of duty violations, we must be able to ensure ABSA
users are provisioned from accurate information based on role,�
David Lello, CEO, Global Security Solutions and business integrator
for information security at ABSA Bank in South Africa, said. �CA
Identity Manager handles the provisioning and Eurekify Enterprise
Role Manager provides the means to clean user data and define the
role to enable successful and accurate provisioning.� CA Identity
Manager and Eurekify Enterprise Role Manager A leading identity
management solution, CA Identity Manager automates identity-related
processes ranging from user administration to provisioning. It does
this for internal users, external users, and non-user identities on
all platforms�from the mainframe to Web applications. �As the clock
ticks for organizations to address compliance issues, time to value
for identity management solutions become even more important,� said
Bilhar Mann, CA senior vice president, Security Management.
�Eurekify�s leadership in role modeling, mining and management
processes is an ideal coupling with the strengths of CA Identity
Manager. The complete solution allows organizations to streamline
the management of identities and their subsequent access and strive
for faster adherence to compliance mandates.� Eurekify, a pioneer
in role modeling and role management, has leveraged advanced
pattern recognition analysis in Eurekify Enterprise Role Manager to
manage roles from role-and-rule mining to privileges clean up.
