One Identity Starling Connect overview
Today, more than ever, organizations must address the proliferation of cloud-based applications. While these applications often provide convenient and flexible access for employees and customers, they also present a new set of management and security challenges for IT and line-of-business managers.
For efficiency and simplicity, an organization’s Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution needs to provide an aggregated view of identities across all systems. Additionally, an IAM solution should enable managers to easily define and enforce the policies of their governance initiatives, including those that are on-premises, hybrid and cloud. The above mentioned activities can be performed by One Identity Starling Connect.
A cloud based, managed-service offering, Starling Connect extends the governance capabilities of One Identity Manager (version 7.1.3 or later) to enable organizations to enjoy the benefits of secure hybrid environments. Now, you can extend your One Identity Manager on-premise deployment, to control all your applications, regardless of their installation (on-premise or cloud based).
With Starling Connect, you can extend your investment in identity governance beyond on-premises apps to cloud applications used by your partners. Starling Connect builds on One Identity Manager to unify governance, extend access controls, ensure compliance and to reduce the time taken to provision / de-provision users and groups.
