To help organizations simplify application security, Oracle announced Oracle Identity Management 11g -- the most complete, integrated and open set of best-of-breed components built on a common platform and engineered to deliver unparalleled integration both within and across the suite through a series of common components.
As the industry's first Service-Oriented Security architecture, Oracle Identity Management 11g provides developers with shared services for identity administration and password management, strong authentication and authorization, workflow and auditing, thus radically simplifying application security. This services based architecture is also designed to naturally extend to cloud computing environments, providing a single point of control for on-premise and off-premise applications and systems.
Oracle Identity Management 11g, a component of Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g, offers breakthrough intelligent compliance capabilities driven by identity analytics to provide a complete view of an organization's security and compliance posture, which will accelerate compliance, improve transparency and proactively mitigate risk.
