What is Access Management?
Access management (AM) is a rapidly growing field that offers software solutions. These solutions help organizations control who can access their applications and data, both within the company (employees) and external users (customers, partners, government agencies, or freelance workers). AM tools typically come as a web-based service (SaaS), making them easy to set up and use. However, some companies offer traditional software installations or appliance-based deployments for those with specific needs.
