Red Hat Identity Management: Providing Scalable & Simplified Assurance to Government Agencies

IDENTITY AND ACCESS MANAGEMENT

In recent years, the role of security within government agencies has grown exceedingly complex and challenging. With increased Governmental directives (HSPD-12, FIPS 201), mobile work environments, reliance on external networks to communicate between constituents/citizens and employees and tighter budget controls, government agencies are looking for identity management solutions which are simplified and scalable.

When choosing Red Hat, you will find the most simplified, scalable and complete identity management solution in the market today. Its base architecture has been built around industry standards and is backed by the open-source community for providing choice and industry leading value to its customers at an overall lower cost of ownership. Take a look at Red Hat Directory Server and Red Hat Certificate System to understand the true power of Red Hat's identity management solutions.
