Global Survey Results 2021 – Executive Summary: Understanding the trend toward unified identity security as a countermeasure to identity sprawl
Did you know that more than half of large organizations manage access rights in more than 25 different silos? And one in five do so in more than 100 systems. That’s a lot of distinct applications and systems separately managed by unique processes and various levels of security. This fragmented approach to identity security complicates user provisioning and de-provisioning tasks and prevents clear visibility into who has access to what.
To get a better measurement of the extent and impact of this issue, One Identity commissioned Dimensional Research to survey IT security leaders from around the world.
