The Business Challenge
The number of user repositories in many enterprise environments is alarming—in many cases over one hundred distinct data stores. The multitude of usernames and passwords required by corporate applications, messaging, and directory services systems is not just a burden on end users, but also makes new technology initiatives difficult to integrate. Practically every large enterprise is challenged by the proliferation of Windows and Novell Servers, increasing hardware, software and administrative costs. This proliferation also introduces potential security vulnerabilities caused by systems out of synchronization, or the increasing difficulty to deploy system patches.
