IAM Identity Access Management—Importance in Maintaining Security Systems within Organizations

Identity and Access Management proposes a web service that assists in controlling the entire work through secured ways. This research study has been started to highlight the importance of IAM by discussing its roles, characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. It is a framework comprising processes, policies, and the latest technologies, allowing the organization to monitor digital identities and control exclusive access to follow information based on user data. The IAM component proposes an approach of centralized user management, account management console, authentication approaches, and so on. In this research work, roles and key components of IAM have been discussed with all types of possible challenges. Furthermore, this research will help readers and future researchers easily identify the importance of IAM in maintaining security systems within organizations.


Research Background
User identity management is a common component that provides security and easy auditable access to some limited assets.The term "Identity Access Management" ensures the job identities and nature of the right people c easily accessed through relevant tools.The framework includes different processes, policies, and technologies to monitor user access and manage digital identities.Identity management is needed to improve data security, control user data access, and maintain distance from illegal access.It helps any organization to identify illegal access, mitigate data breaches, and propose sensitive information about the corporate world.The components of IAM can be classified into the following four important categories: 'authorization', 'authentication', 'central user repository', and 'user management' [1].
This research paper has been conducted to highlight IAM's significance, advantages, and disadvantages.It has been noticed that "Google", "Facebook", "GitHub", and other well-known web-based organizations provide free confirmation opportunities that can be easily coordinated through online applications.'KeyCloak' is an open-source IAM that focuses on current administrations and applications designed to provide a keyguard for application protections and administrations [1].'Azure ATP (Advanced Threat Protection)' is a completely cloud-based solution that helps investigate and detect any type of security incidents across the entire network system.It assists in securing any organization from compromised identities and insider threats.It has the ability to identify the threat patterns along with its resources within the cloud and on-premises.
Nowadays, as passwords are one of the important predominant mechanisms used for authentication processes, it becomes impossible to remember those passwords if the users have more than one account.It frequently forces the users to choose weaker passwords which damages the user's own revealing passwords.It has been noticed that it becomes easy for attackers to grant access to those accounts and hack users' credentials.'SailPoint' cloud platform for maintaining identity security helps users to realize the accesses and identities of all the secure information [2].This identity management solution helps organizations easily manage digital identities, employee permissions, data access, information security, and compliance.Similarly, it has also been noticed that 'CyberArk' Singh et al.
IAM Identity Access Management-Importance in Maintaining Security Systems within Organizations proposes the most extensible and complete platform of identity security that helps to protect critical assets and identities in the vicinity of zero trust.It is a complete 'security-focused IAM'.On the other hand, 'Okta' is such an IAM platform that can be used easily and neutrally with all relevant existing solutions, which selects the best technologies.Identity authentication, as well as access control of different participating nodes, propose cross-chain transactions to practice different accesses [3].
In this research work, IAM proposes opportunities to access all types of cloud-resourced project-level access easily.It allows maintaining IAM standards to access the data that need to complete the job.Achieving identity authentication and access control in support of transaction circulation uses various types of changes which maintain low chain intrusion [2].Moreover, with the assistance of the IAM scheme, it becomes easy to realize conversion based on cross-chain identity in the middle of recorded illegal transactions and different chains.IAM risks are always inherent in the cloud environment, where different types of potential risks are easily resolved through the help of cloud service providers.Therefore, it is also necessary to manage all the IAM risks, which are the outcomes of any cyber criminals, negligence in vendor management, industrial espionage, or maltreatment by any privileged users [5].
This research paper is organized into different chapters; chapter 1, within the introduction section, explains the background of the research work based on the proposed topic.In chapter 2, it has critically discussed the points of view of different authors' perspectives on IAM.It has explained the in-depth information, which helps the readers of this paper to acquire all the relevant information based on research objectives and questions.Chapter 3 has explained the research methodology, which is followed by the researcher while conducting the research.Chapter 4 is designed to explain the outcomes of this research work and comparisons between all the article papers.Chapter 6 provides the conclusion of this entire research work [6].

Problem Statement
This research work has been conducted depending on the significance of IAM.It is mainly an important cybersecurity activity that helps to organize different access management.With its assistance of it, it automatically boosts the entire monitoring processes and security controls.This research work will help to understand the importance of identity management systems that are actively used to propose safeguarding security-based incidents.As in the recent era, cybercrime incidents are increasing day by day, and it will be necessary to realize the importance of identity management systems [7].Moreover, it can be said that the current research is needed to solve the possible issues behind the identity management system.

Research Significance
The significance of this research is to outline a framework that has been designed to assign digital identities.It consists of different types of processes and policies, along with the latest technologies.This section highlights the important roles of IAM, its key components, and possible challenges which adhere to its values of it.Security maintenance is always a pivotal part of any type of application [8].Behalf of increasing awareness about identity management, it is required to carry on the entire research study to highlight the importance of identity access management to the readers of this paper and future researchers.

Role of the IAM Identity and Access Management
As in the latest technological era, the revolution of computerized devices is increasingly attractive constantly; due to that reason, most attacks also try to take various types of tactics to access users' devices [10], stated that, for handling the latest cyber-attacks, traditional security controls process cannot provide better outcomes, and with this, failed to handle threats also.
The Fig. 1 provided information about the IAM configuration phase, as well as the IAM operation phase."Identity Access Management" (IAM) can support handling permissions, which manage how AWS resources can access users.IAM is also known as "role-based access controls" (RBAC), through which cloud customers can easily assign individual function, which is related to a set of permission to access other functions, data stores, as well as open Internet.Roles of strict IAM can be constructed for those functions which are limited to communicating with those important requirements to handle their activities.In this research paper, the author proposed "WILLIAM" as a workflow-aware access management model, as well as a reference monitor, which satisfies the functional requirements of the "serverless computing paradigm" [11].William has the capability to encode a serverless application's protection state as a permission graph, which defines permissible transitions.It has the capability to avert unauthorized requests' processing costs, as well as minimize applications' attack surface also.By adopting IAM, business organizations can ensure high-quality security systems production processes and, with this, improve regulatory compliance also.IAM has the capability to increase the flexibility of traditional usernames, as well as password solutions [12].
Based on the previous author's statement [13] stated that, in information security systems, IAM plays a significant role.To handle the latest IT environment, and with this handle database platform, it is important for the users to identify network access properly.Through this research paper, the author tried to provide how IAM can connect with innovative Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to ensure high standard identity management, as well as user authentication [14].
Through the above Fig. 2, the author defined the AI approach to IAM.As in the current age, due to innumerable effectiveness, the popularity of AI and ML is constantly increasing; due to that reason, there is no doubt it can develop the efficiency of IAM.Modern technologies have the capability to speed up the latest IAM compliance.AI has the capability to detect abnormalities, as well as possible threats.It equips customers with the proper information required to take proper decisions, both technical, as well as non-technical [15].Due to technological advantages, hackers are becoming proficient as well as daring constantly, and due to that reason, for infiltrating user's networks, often it can be difficult for organizational managers to handle issues properly.Through this research paper, the author clearly defines the beautiful relationship between AI and IAM.Through the research findings, it has been noted that the implementation of AI is a totally new approach, and there are no proper organizations that take any approach to implement AI in IAM.Those two are the most innovative combination for developing a suitable monitoring system through which IAM can visualize connectivity and decrease cyber breach risks.With the combination of innovative technologies, IAM can ensure Fig. 2. IAM model for artificial intelligence.Source: [14].
that the right people can access the organizational network and, with this, manage employee applications also.

Key Components of the Process of IAM
IAM professionals should have a proper vision for the IAM circumstances which satisfy the requirements of the corporate.Every IAM project should develop towards the required target state.The components of IAM can be categorized into four different categories, concluding authentication, user management, central user, and with this authorization.In the present age, most business organizations increase their focus on the adaptation of cloud infrastructure platforms in equal capability.
In hybrid IT architecture, IAM is a crucial component.Hybrid IAM has the capability to develop a basic credential, which can be allowed for access in cloud environments [16], defines components of hybrid IAM architecture, concluding on-premise corporate directory, on-premise federation service, Identity Sync services, and with this cloud IAM service.Directory services, which allow authentication to access organizational resources, conclude Active Directory.Directory objects highlight the user account as well as the service account.For that, identity service implements basic access management abilities concluding authentication, as well as authorization for the organizational applications.Fig. 3 shows how it supports identity standards, such as SAML as well as OpenID Connect, to allow access to both internal, as well as external resources.Identity Sync Service is basically implemented in cloud direction-based organizations to reduce risk, as well as complexity.In the public cloud, platform service implements fundamental IAM abilities, concluding authentication, federation, as well as access management, and with this can be exploited access assumption sources as well [17], [18].
Based on the previous author's opinion, the other author [19] defines IAM systems as required to be realized properly, that can be utilized for on-premises services, as well as cloud services correctly, as well as securely.IAM has the capability to provide massive security features for providing user access within the organization."Security Assertation Markup Language", commonly known as SAML, is utilized in this research paper.It is basically a standard protocol structured by the ''Security Services Technical Committee'' [19].An IAM SAML allows identity providers to ensure user authentication through interchanging user information, concluding login data, authentication state, identifiers, as well as different relevant Singh et al.

Analysis of IAM Challenges Developed During the Implementation Process
A firm or organization can easily face different challenges at the time outlining, implementing, as well as controlling IAM solutions.It has been noticed that the latest cloud-dependent IAM solutions propose simplified and uniform identity management practices, which easily become popular as the day advances, for optimizing the existing solutions of identity and access management.As per the opinions of the authors [20], the way of the latest businesses is completely revolutionized through storing, processing, as well as managing the relevant data.For all sizes of businesses, cloud security nowadays has become a great concern.The user's identity is verified through identification processes that easily access any cloud resources as well as control the user's actions to perform better.Implementation of effective authentication along with access controls is important for keeping away from any illegal access to all the cloud resources [20].
Fig. 4 shows there are so many challenges that are associated with the implementation of the IAM system, and those are 'lack of sufficient planning', 'lack of management support', 'poor user role management', 'misapplication of the roles and responsibilities of access management', 'lack of attention in the near future', 'lack of relevant points of views', and 'poor privileged access management (PAM)'.The proposed system provides a dynamic field that always remains progressive for helping combat cybercrime for continuing the development of the latest methods.IAM should be implemented in the company of effective authentication mechanisms like MFA and RBAC to ensure the right of only authorized users to access cloud-based resources.Besides this, it has been required to regularly review the user's data [21].
Implementation of IAM represents its own challenges, together with many SMBs (small and medium-sized businesses) [21].Whatever the size of an organization, it has Fig. 4. IAM components.Source: [18].come to know that board members, as well as business leaders, propose success on behalf of following the IAM initiative.Nowadays, almost all activities have slowly adopted the latest technologies, which creates an international shortage among all tech professionals.Finding trustworthy employees with sufficient knowledge creates difficulties in a global shortage system.All the important data should be encrypted in both situations that are in transit forms and even in rest positions.Both SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) are utilized for data encryption [22].
It has also been noticed that the lack of proper planning guides to the mismanagement of different resources which are required to manage and implement IAM.It has been noticed that IAM needs an extensive roadmap that needs to be extended over the past few years, and this roadmap is completely supported by all the relevant stakeholders.The path of implementation of IAM should be designed by prioritizing the possible risks.As it is completely based on the latest technologies, it has been noticed that risks or challenges will change as time goes on, but at the same time, unexpected changes will arise.IAM implementation is difficult and completely resource-based.Despite all of this, it can be said that the implementation of IAM is a relevant opportunity to focus on access controls and proposed risk assessments in regard to IAM activities [23].

Mitigation Strategies of IAM challenges
Based on the previous author's opinion about the IAM's implementation challenges, it has been noted that there are different basic issues that should be mitigated properly.Among various issues, the most common risk is authentication issues [24] defines that, for ensuring authentication, it is important to implement authenticate method.Authentication factors can be categorized into three different groups, such as ''personal identification numbers'', biometrics, or authentication key.Additionally, the multilayer security system is also an essential process that can support ensuring authentication.Through multiple authentication mechanisms within the IAM process, it can be easy to mitigate challenges as well as increase efficiency levels also.

Conclusion
IAM plays an important role in the case of accessing important data.As the cybersecurity industry becomes aware of maintaining login credentials, it becomes important to accomplish IAM solutions depending on access privileges and user credentials.After conducting this research work, it can be concluded that IAM systems utilize different protocols and standards for securing personally identifiable information.With the assistance of this system, it becomes easy to follow the track of users' activities as well as prior authorizations, which can easily change the employees' performances.It has the ability to integrate the authentication of organizational infrastructure in the company of identity governance that follows different data security policies by following or informing any top-level decisions [27].At the time of collecting relevant information from various research papers, it has come to know that the right and rule of compliance management software helps to automate as well as follow the track of different components of the IAM activities [28].
All the updated services and applications always prefer both storage and cloud services together with any kind of traditional systems and on-premise servers.Most organizations always target to sort out cyber-attacks and external threats so that all the employees can easily maintain the regular workflow.As the day advanced, it really has become so challenging to find out all the internal threats and cyber-attack incidents in the organization.It has been noticed that all the latest applications and required services propose cloud services over the traditional systems and servers, which easily manage security areas through using different tools, which creates difficulties in managing the entire identity management processes.Identity-based activities are basically used to accumulate all the relevant data, such as public keys.Data-centric characters always propose outcomes by following the latest security needs for secured communication.The data source authentication always makes sure about the data packets that have been followed during the identity access management processes.
So after completing the entire research work, it can be concluded that data-centric authentication always proposes a common security service that is needed by proposing different types of security solutions [29].The key importance behind the IAM system is to automate recording, capturing, and controlling access permissions and user identities to improve data security.Not only that, but it also helps to provide solutions that can easily identify possible issues and find ways to mitigate them.Future research on this proposed topic will open a new door to be updated with the attitude of the latest technologies as well as keep away from any data breaches or cyberattacks.With the assistance of IAM, people can easily avoid sharing any long-term credentials as well as propose protection against any kind of illegal access.Maintaining user authentication is an important component of best practices of access management which helps to keep away any kind of unauthorized access and secure the data from data breaches [30].Future research on this topic will help to be more conscious about the responsibilities of identity and access management.
