Although companies have become aware of the challenges related to identity and authorisation management, its implementation requires functional constraints to be respected and the most common usages to be taken into account; pragmatism is sometimes more important than the technical aspect. For this reason, we have integrated the pre-packaged Ilex Identity Management Solution into our IAM (Identity and Access Management) platform.
The Ilex Identity Management Solution is fully pre-configured. Ilex Identity Management Solution is a packaged life cycle management software solution for users and their IS authorisations. It streamlines, manages and audits the identity and authorisation management processes for the company. The software also facilitates the publication and delegated management of people, structures and IT resources.
A “pre-packaged” identity
and authorisation management software
Since it is pre-configured, the Ilex Identity Management Solution is particularly suited to the needs and resources of agile organisations and mid-market companies. It quickly and simply provides all the services expected by the users of your IS for pragmatic and effective identity management.
- Information Service: central reference base of people and organisations.
- Management Service (Workflow): business process for arrivals, departures, mobility, allocation of resources (hardware and software), self-service for requests and tracking of requests for resources.
- Provisioning Service: automation of creation, modification, deletion and reconciliation of accounts and rights.
- Administration Service: authorisation management, delegation, review of rights.
- Audit Service: Who has access to what? Who does what? Who validated what and on which date? etc.

Reporting and audit
Several preconfigured settings make the daily rights auditing tasks easier for the CISO:
- Who has access to what? Who asked for what? Who validated what?
- What rights does this user have? When should these rights be removed?
- How many users have this resource?
- …
As well as for the HR departments, in particular with regard to the movement of people:
- Who declared their arrival?
- How long does this process take?
- How many departures were there last month?
- …
