Compliance Management Platform

Quick and easy user provisioning
Make sure new employees have access to everything they need to get right down to work. Using Identity Manager, you can provision new employees 95 percent faster, and eliminate those tedious, labor-intensive manual procedures that usually accompany the hiring process. And at the other end of the spectrum, Identity Manager lets you revoke access immediately upon their departure from your enterprise. Best of all, everything is verifiable, so you can both enforce and prove compliance with all the security policies in place at your company.
Adjustable access tuned to changing needs
Give them exactly what they need, when they need it. Throughout their career within your organization, an employee may play many roles. Novell Identity Manager lets you securely and automatically manage the access needs of all your users, even when they change roles and take on new responsibilities.
Dynamic, demonstrable compliance
When you need to prove, track, automate, and verify your security policies, Identity Manager is your best friend. You won't need to worry about Sarbanes-Oxley or other information disclosure legislation like it, because Novell Identity Manager logs and tracks all user access for auditing purposes. This makes it much easier to track down breaches in security should they ever occur, and provides solid confirmation that only authorized users have access to sensitive information and systems.
Grant secure access to users, no matter where they are
Give users the same experience with apps, whether they are inside or outside the firewall. With SSL VPN, Novell Access Manager™ allows you to provide your mobile workers with a secure tunnel between, say, their hotel room and the app they're accessing. This means they only have to learn one method of doing their job, whether they're sitting at their desk or not.
Identity information that safely crosses boundaries
Let your users share information with trusted partners safely and securely. Novell Access Manager implements Liberty Alliance Identity Federation specifications, giving users a secure way to pass authentication information along when they need to. Deliver simple access to employees, customers and partners using standards-based access management technologies that make it easy to securely share identity information across business and technical boundaries.
Web single sign-on
Make it easy to log in and use Web-based applications. Novell Access Manager enables single sign-on, which means your employees and partners only have to remember one login for authorized access to all corporate Web-based applications. This will free your helpdesk from Web-access password calls, make your users more productive and support your organization's security requirements.
Active monitoring around the clock
When it comes to security, manual monitoring just doesn't cut it. For true policy enforcement, you need something that doesn't ever get tired, bored, distracted or lazy. The active dashboard in Sentinel™ automates the security monitoring of IT systems and controls in real time, enabling you to identify and respond to anomalies and policy violations quickly and efficiently. You can go home at night knowing Sentinel is on the job.
Real-time reporting
Active monitoring is great, but active reporting is even better. It's not enough for the system to know what is happening if it can't show you in time for you to act. Providing service beyond simple security monitoring, Sentinel collects, correlates, monitors and displays data from thousands of events per second in real time. This is essential for Government applications and compliance regulations such as PCI-DSS, SOX, and FISMA. You have up-to-the-minute reports on your organization's security and compliance health right at your fingertips, instead of relying on stale reports generated for the last security or compliance audit.
Policy enforcement that ensures compliance
It's not just a reporter; it's also an enforcer. Based on your policies, Sentinel can actually respond to incidents as they occur, taking policy enforcement to new levels. Automated incident response management enables you to document and formalize the process of tracking, escalating and responding to incidents and policy violations, and provides the ability to create a trouble ticket directly in another system, such as Remedy. Sentinel helps you demonstrate your compliance with internal policies and industry and government regulations such as SOX, HIPAA, GLBA, PCI-DSS, FISMA and others.
