The IT Security Challenge

The IT Security Challenge Effective security cannot exist in isolation. It must be viewed as part of an overall IT infrastructure that covers many disciplines. ANB’s behavioral biometric solution optimizes the performance, reliability and efficiency of enterprise IT environments by tightly integrating security and operations.

Identification and Authentication – The Core of Business

Authenticating user identities and managing access rights to applications and data are at the core of enterprise security but this is no longer a simple task in complex business environments. The challenge is compounded by the multitude of users both inside and outside of the enterprise and the increasing number of applications and resources adopted by today’s enterprise. Customers, suppliers and partners are now an integral part of an organization and thus require access to applications and data as well. Business partners require a trusted relationship to execute business transactions. This situation creates an environment for compromised security, increased help desk costs and IT-related risk.

The Rise of Regulatory Compliance

Corporations are facing increasing challenges to meet the requirements of governmental and industry regulations. Policies covering IT security generally have specific requirements related to the concept of knowing who users are – authentication – and what applications and resources they are entitled to see – access. Creating layers of automated, internal security controls related to user identity, authentication and access can greatly ease the burden of meeting these governmental and corporate requirements.
