What is Workforce IAM?
An identity and access management (IAM) solution that is used to provide capabilities to employees and other internal users of organizations like partners to secure access to the resources of organizations is called workforce identity and access management (or employee IAM). Businesses can become more agile, protect themselves from data breaches, and comply with privacy regulations with the help of Workforce IAM products.
An ideal Workforce IAM solution should include the ability to ensure a secure and frictionless experience to encourage users to be productive with their routine activities. According to the markets and markets, in 2023, businesses will be spending $30 billion on IAM.
Features of Workforce Identities
Single Sign-On (SSO)
Single sign-on (SSO) is something your IT, security, and users will love. It provides best-in-class security. Empower your in-office employees, remote workforce, and contractors with a single identity to connect with all applications securely through SSO. You are able to diminish poor credential management as well as employee credential fatigue. Apart from this, you can even reduce the number of user identities IT needs to manage.
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Delight your customers as well as workforce by providing secure, and intelligent access. Increase your login security with password policy enforcement, or introduce a passwordless or biometric Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) experience. Seamlessly activate user-friendly MFA methods such as TOTP.
Fastpass
Allow passwordless authentication for your workforce with the help of Fastpass.
Self-Service Credential Management
Allow users to perform self-management of their credential access and password resets by removing credential management overhead from the IT support desk.
Lifecycle Management
With easy-to-implement automation, manage provisioning like a pro.

Benefits of Workforce IAM
Centralize Access
Workforce Identity & Access Management (IAM) provides a centralized access for cloud apps and on-premises systems and apps. Centralized access policies enable SSO & MFA across all connected applications which increases the security.
Enable Secure Access
It enables secure access with the help of a context and behavioral-aware approach including risk-based adaptive access controls. It empowers users with quick access that provides a seamless experience by strengthening authentication and authorization capabilities. Secure and manage connective APIs, whether to the cloud, SaaS, web services, microservices, or IoT.
Protect Against Breaches
Without even sacrificing security, you can extend access to a global, remote workforce with the help of workforce IAM as it protects against any breaches. To make sure that only the right users can access the right resources, you can enable multiple layers of authentication (MFA).
Increased Productivity
It increases productivity of the workforce by increasing application usage with frictionless login between apps. Self-service credential management diminishes the burden on IT to manage credentials as well as password resets.
Monitor Privileged Users?
It reduces the risk of security incidents by delivering adaptive and frictionless privilege management capabilities. To administer access with unrivaled privilege granularity, you can use our WIAM model. Increase security along with preserving a positive user experience with non-intrusive privileged session monitoring.
Why To Choose Workforce IAM?
Authenticate
With Single Sign-on or passwordless authentication, you can increase user agility. Apart from this, with multi factor authentication (MFA), you can Re-Authenticate remote workers.
Integrate
You can integrate applications both on-prem as well as in the cloud with security technologies. With seamless transitions, you can reduce disruption to legacy systems and business applications.
Automate
With the help of lifecycle management, automate provisioning and deprovisioning of user profiles to applications. It empowers users with self-service options to request access, reset and manage passwords.
Innovate
To establish risk-based authentication policies, deliver adaptive access with AI as well as machine learning for context and deeper insights. Uncover deviations in entitlements, and correlate behavior between user sessions.
