Certain industries like finance, healthcare, insurance are compliance conscious. Regulation and compliance in these sectors are continuously driving them to adopt to identity management techniques. This is primarily due to large data security and privacy requirements, demanded by financial compliance, healthcare compliance, Insurance compliance etc.

 Identity management ensures data security and privacy of critical data is maintained by consolidating an employees identity across the enterprise. Identity of a person working in the enterprise is now consolidated into one digital identity rather than duplication of the identity from department to department. With one single identity, establishing roles, granting access and adding group membership etc, becomes simple and transparent. This ensures that the right person has access to the right services in an enterprise and hence security is guaranteed.
