| | DECEMBER 2020ENTERPRISE SECURITY6Age of Digital Identity and Access ManagementEditorialThe scope and intricacy of modern identity environments are becoming extremely challenging to manage using traditional methods, and there is a growing need to bring innovation and new technologies for creating a secure, flexible, and adaptive IT infrastructure. Consequently, IAM tools installed across critical spots are being updated and made compatible with advanced technologies and functionalities. One of the significant identity and access management trends is the role of cloud-user access management software. Digital identity is fundamental when using cloud-based services. Using single sign-on (SSO) systems with multi-factor authentication will grant the privileged access hybrid systems require.Besides, when it comes to blockchain in the context of IAM, two aspects come into play: Audit trail and self-sovereign identity. While audit trial helps monitor activities, detect fraud, and meet compliance requirements, the idea behind self-sovereign identity system is to replace centralized identity providers and instead let each individual take control over and decrypt the data only when required. Another area that businesses are working on for IAM systems is to create the ability to authenticate the access needed by a vast number of devices. The key is to push as much of the computational needs out to the "edge." This will make the devices do as much of the processing of the information as possible.
