CSIA 310: Cybersecurity Processes & Technologies Case Study #2: Technology & Product Review for Identity Governance & Administration Case Scenario:

Case Scenario: For this case study, our focus shifts to technologies and products used to implement the Identity Governance & Administration (IGA) business process and related security controls. IGA is used to manage and mitigate insider threat. Insiders, because of their access to information and information resources (e.g. workstations, servers, networks), potentially have the opportunity and the means by which to steal intellectual property, commit fraud, and perform other types of mischief and mayhem (ranging from pranks to deliberate sabotage).
