SAP IDA Solutions

For many companies running SAP, systems administration represents a significant cost. Managing user accounts, providing the right access to the right systems at the right time, maintaining appropriate security and auditing user management activities is vital. But all too often these activities rely upon inefficient processes and multiple data entry. Opportunities exist to improve this situation; lowering costs substantially, enhancing security and providing important value-added benefits to the business. 

Oxford Computer Group provides a solution specifically designed for organisations running SAP HR, R/3 and Netweaver. By combining the power and flexibility of Microsoft Identity Lifecycle Manager (ILM) 2007 (and formerly Microsoft Identity Integration Server (MIIS) 2003) with a bespoke connector for SAP we have created a cost-effective and easily deployable solution to address issues of Identity & Access Management.

With our SAP IDA solutions you can:

• Simplify administration by creating a single point of access for the management of identity data.
• Ensure all systems are provided with accurate and up-to-date identity data that consistently conforms to your organisations data conventions.
• Reduce licensing and administration costs and improve productivity through the implementation of automated, workflow-enabled processes for account creation, deletion and management.
• Create an Enterprise Role model for SAP, allowing greater control of role-based access and more cost-efficient administration.
• Provide self-service password management to increase staff productivity and reduce security threats.
• Improve security and reduce ownership costs by synchronizing users’ sign-on credentials across systems and provide facilities for Reduced Sign-on or Enterprise Single Sign-on.
• Further Improve security by automatically modifying a user’s access rights based on their role, and automatically removing those rights when they leave, or their role changes.
• Enhance compliance with regulatory standards through improved traceability, audit and reporting of identity data and user management activity.
