Identity and Access Management Training

This identity and access management course will teach you to strengthen your organization’s security and simplify access to critical resources by implementing the appropriate Identity Management (IdM) and Identity Access Management (IAM) strategies. You will learn how to implement Single Sign-On (SSO) via a solid foundation based on industry-standard Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and Federated Identity Management (FIM).

• Familiarity with security issues at the level of:
  • Course 468, Information Security Training
• Experience with Windows operating system

Identity and Access Management Training Benefits
