The firm manufactures 5,000 different kinds of products for the healthcare industry, including dialysis machines and specialist fibre-optic equipment for surgery. It has more than 61,000 employees worldwide — all of whom have IT user accounts that need to be carefully managed.
B. Braun needed a more effective way to manage user accounts and protect data. Andreas Mueller, IT project manager at B.
