Overview and Installation

Novell Secure Access is an integrated suite of access and security products that simplify, secure, accelerate, and extend identity management to applications, platforms, databases, and network resources.

Today's traditional, best-of-breed access and security solutions often have their own identity stores and security policies. Having to maintain multiple identity stores and security policies introduces significant security vulnerabilities, increases administration and support costs, and reduces the quality of the end user experience. Additionally, such solutions don't provide a mechanism for enforcing a consistent access control and security policy for the many users an organization encounters.

Novell Secure Access enables organizations to remove many of these vulnerabilities, reduce administrative and support costs, and improve the end user experience by unifying the identity management between Novell and non-Novell applications, databases, platforms, and other network resources.
