KuppingerCole Analysts - Our Regular Podcasts

In this first of two episodes, Annie Bailey and Matthias Reinwarth lay the foundations for the topic "Emerging Technologies in Healthcare". Beyond hype and half-knowledge, they look at the use of AI, machine learning, block chain, and modern digital identities for the comprehensive improvement of processes and systems in healthcare.

This analyst chat episode is the 50th and therefore a bit different. This time Matthias talks to two experienced analysts, Martin Kuppinger and Alexei Balaganski, about the ECSM, the European Cyber Security Month, which is to provide information and awareness on cyber security in October 2020. The particular aim they pursue is to go beyond awareness to arrive at specific measures that can benefit individuals and organizations alike.

When asked to describe IAM processes, managers tend to think first of traditional lifecycle management processes such as Joiner, Mover and Leaver (JML). While these are clearly essential for identity governance in interplay with authoritative sources, a comprehensive process framework for IAM and beyond encompasses many other areas. Martin Kuppinger and Matthias Reinwarth explore some of these additional areas between convenience and compliance.

Dynamic, risk-based, attribute- and context-related authorizations are becoming increasingly important for many enterprises. Graham Williamson and Matthias Reinwarth take a look at the market sector for dynamic authorization management and policy-based permissions in light of the recent publication of a Market Compass on this topic.

Access management and access governance in many companies are still largely based on traditional authorization concepts. Thus defining and thinking access management is often rooted in a rather one-dimensional paradigm. Martin and Matthias talk about access policies as a common language for defining and maintaining rules for access, independent of the actual implementation of access control.
