Evolving an IAM and Access Management architecture

A banking organization wanted to assess an initial identity architecture designed for a partner use case and define sustainable evolution scenarios.

  • IAM Architecture
  • Access Management
  • Authorization

Context

The identity system had been designed for a single partner-oriented use case. The architecture was robust but lacked a long-term evolution strategy, internal ownership was limited, documentation was incomplete and initial choices restricted expansion to other use cases.

Challenges

  • Assess the strengths and limitations of the existing architecture.
  • Review the authorization model and lifecycle management.
  • Assess governance and delegated administration.
  • Define realistic evolution scenarios.

Our approach

Ariovis performed a functional review, analyzed pain points, examined the authorization model, assessed lifecycle management and audited the development structure. Governance, delegated administration and organizational impacts were also reviewed.

Results

  • A substantiated assessment of the identity system.
  • A clear view of strengths, risks and structural limitations.
  • Scenarios distinguishing what can be retained from what requires redesign.
  • An objective basis for governing the transformation.
