Legacy anti-patterns
IAM Anti-Pattern
An IAM anti-pattern is a design habit that repeatedly creates security, governance, or operational problems.
Definition
An IAM anti-pattern is a recurring design choice that may appear practical in the short term but consistently generates fragility over time. It often results in poor visibility, excessive manual work, weak control over access, weak revocation capability, or enlarged compromise impact.
The Ariovis perspective
Ariovis does not modernize an anti-pattern by adding another tool. The first step is to understand the process, ownership and operating weakness, then simplify the target before automating it.
