Secure Identity Management

A new Software Agreement for the NHS – including new products, new services, new benefits

Like any organisation, public or private, the NHS protects its IT infrastructure from information theft in order to ensure compliance with regulations and the privacy of patients and staff. Today’s security and identity technology enables information assets to be safeguarded with the required level of security without reducing operational effectiveness.

Novell improves security with comprehensive user provisioning and access management solutions, including:

  • Providing new employees with first-day access to all appropriate resources
  • Self-service Password Management
  • Approval work flows for user self service
  • Enforcing security and compliance across systems
  • Revoking ex-employee access to all systems in real time

The Novell NHS Software Agreement makes it easier for you to achieve these benefits by combining bespoke solutions tailored to the specific access requirements of the NHS with the award-winning Novell Identity Manager 3.

  • Provision new users from ESR into your local Active Directory
  • Use the NHS Smart Card without modification
  • NHSMail national directory integration
  • Enabling seamless Single Sign-on to NHS Applications
