Attribute authority provides real-time, policy-driven control over identity attributes—such as role, location, or device trust—that define access. Integrated with OpenText identity and access management solutions, it ensures accurate attribute propagation across systems, supports event-driven enforcement, and enables zero trust and adaptive access control across hybrid environments.

主要优势

Accurate maintenance of identity attributes enables precise access decisions, reduces risk, automates compliance, and prevents privilege misuse—ensuring users get the right access at the right time while minimizing operational overhead and audit exposure.

提高安全性

Reduce the risk of over-provisioning and unauthorized access with attribute-driven access controls. By ensuring that access decisions are based on real-time attributes, organizations reduce exposure to insider threats and lateral movement during breaches.
Effectively automate identity lifecycle management across your environment

Automate identity life cycle management without overwriting authoritative and important attributes. Reach continuous compliance with industry regulations by ensuring entitlements always reflect user status and context.
Increase operational efficiency

Reduce how much manual overhead you need for centralized identity management with effective attribute management. Controlling which source is authoritative for specific identity attribute makes automation efficient as it minimizes errors.
Enforce policies based on context

Use reliable identity attributes, such as device trust, location, or group membership, to trigger adaptive access controls, enhancing security without impacting user productivity.

商业影响

Breach and audit readiness

Many organizations lack clear, policy aligned justification and traceability for access rights. Improve audit readiness and reduce security incidents by ensuring that all access rights are justifiable, trackable, and compliant with policy.
Time-to-value for digital initiatives

You don’t have to rebuild identity models and provisioning logic. Speed deployment of new applications, services, or M&A integrations by reusing established attribute models for identity federation and provisioning.
Compliance and identity management cost savings

Dealing with inconsistent, manual attribute management? Centrally controlled attribute enforcement that is authoritative means fewer manual fixes and reduced audit fatigue—all of which decreases compliance overhead.
Support of cyber insurance and zero trust requirements

The ability to control identities at an attribute level ensures attribute and entitlement integrity fundamental to meeting cyber insurance requirements. It’s also essential for a mature zero trust framework.
