Vote for EmpowerID Role Enforcer

Role Enforcer implements EmpowerID's Role-Based Entitlement Management platform with system and resource agnostic modules to discover, administer, audit, and enforce a single role-based authorization model across different enterprise systems regardless of the technology. EmpowerID's RBAC system automates the granting of application and resource access based upon a person's job function and where they work within an organization. As these changes, unneeded access is removed and new access granted without requiring manual administrative intervention. This "state management" by policy for entitlements prevents the accumulation of privileges over time that can lead to disastrous security breaches.

Role Enforcer modules extend this management by policy to inventory, discover, and manage permissions for specific types of protected enterprise resources. Each system typically has its own idiosyncratic security model and a set of security user interfaces. Role Enforcer bypasses the need to learn this model and use these interfaces by centralizing security on the shared role-based model and translating the results into a format that the system understands and can implement. Many systems can communication with EmpowerID in real-time for external authorization but EmpowerID also supports traditional systems upon which the policies and rules must be translated and pushed down.
