Identity and Access Management

Here you can read how the open Dragon1 EA method defines the concept of Identity and Access Management (IAM) and its principles and how one can model the concept with Dragon1 and with ArchiMate.

Definition

Identity and Access Management (IAM) is the concept of enabling the right individuals to access the right resources at the right times and for the right reasons.

IAM addresses the need to ensure appropriate access to resources across increasingly heterogeneous technology environments and to meet increasingly rigorous compliance requirements.
