 Streamline access-rights management — environment-wide and
throughout the identity lifecycle
SAP NetWeaver® Identity Center (MIC) software simplifies management of identities and access rights to your organizational information, resources, and business services.
This platform-independent provisioning, workflow, password management, and audit and monitoring solution enables you to automate the lifecycle from account creation and approval to ongoing maintenance to termination for all users — including employees, contractors, customers, and partners. In addition, it helps you track resource utilization; meet regulatory compliance requirements; and take advantage of time-saving, cost-saving user self-administration.
SAP NetWeaver® Identity Center facilitates integrated management across multiple applications and repositories. Based on proven meta-directory technology, it puts you in complete control with a centralized view of your entire identity environment. Information from disparate repositories is integrated in one identity store for management in one common format from one central location. Changes are automatically distributed across all relevant repositories — reducing errors and ensuring consistent, quality identity information environment-wide.
