My name is Christian Zotter. I work in the OeKB. It's a bank in Austria, in Vienna, especially for export services and capital services. The size of the bank is about 500 employees.
We have to manage all the accounts inside the bank. And we have lots of clients, who login to our services. And we also have to manage their accounts.
We are a special bank and have lots of applications. External customers have to access our applications. And so we have to manage all these applications and accounts. And so it is a security concern that every customer has only access to the application he needs to have and he is allowed to have.
We use One Identity Manager. We use the data governance engine. It was the best we could find on the market. So we used it.
It looked good at that time. It evolved and gets better. We are very satisfied that it saves a lot of time now. It's much easier to use. It's centralized.
You don't have to use many tools. It's just the web shop or the external administrators. So it was a good choice.
We have much less internal processes to do and much less people to work with it because the customer can do it by self-service and just orders the application. And it's smooth. And nobody in the house has to do anything.
Security is a very big issue, especially in banks because we are attacked all the time, every second. So you have to be very secure. And IAM is a tool that helps you be very secure, especially when you have lots of accounts because there are always problems with the user leaves the company.
Is then really the account cancelled? Are all the roles cancelled? Does he still have access to some services or not? And, if you have-- it spreads over several tools.
It's very, very hard to manage it. If you have the tool like One Identity, you can do it much better. It's much more secure now. And it's faster. So it saves money.
