Access Control

The Problem

As organizations move toward greater mobility and an increased emphasis on outsourcing, public sector departments are pressed to employ a more mobile workforce, expand their use of outside contractors, and work with an increasing number of vendors and partners. These users, as well as guest users, require network and application access, placing tremendous stress on the public sector network, resources, and IT staff.
