Manage secure access
IBM-SAM
A security solution that unifies access to critical enterprise systems for greater security and efficiency.
Secure access control for enterprise protection
The secure gateway to your enterprise systems IBM Security Access
Manager (ISAM) is a secure access management solution that safeguards
critical systems and applications inside the enterprise. It provides
authentication and authorisation, single sign-on (SSO) and reverse proxy
capabilities in one, enhancing security and operational efficiency at the
same time.
It's optimised for on-premises environments and delivers reliable
performance for large user environments. With digital access control
systems (ISAM), organisations can block unnecessary access, and users
can conveniently access multiple systems with a single login.
