  4. Slide Presentation 6 Regulatory environment Legislation requiring effective corporate governance and privacy protection impacts organizations world-wide. Sarbanes-Oxley Requires that publicly traded companies comply with the proper reporting of financial information and control access to this information. Allows service organizations to disclose their control activities and processes to their customers and their customers’ auditors in a uniform reporting format. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996. Electronic signature and system protection regulations by the FDA. Applies to financial institutions and securities firms, aimed at protecting the privacy of customer data. The Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronics Document Act. European Union Privacy Protection Directive. SAS 70 HIPAA 21CFR11 GLB PIPEDA 2002/58/EC These regulations call for better internal controls and a policy of least-privilege. 7 IAM is linked to regulations • Many regulations, in many jurisdictions, call for internal controls: – This implies effective AAA: Authentication, Authorization and Audit. • Every system already has AAA. – The weakness is bad user/access data. • The missing link is business process: – Appropriate access rights. – Timely access termination. – Effective authentication. • Identity and access management process and technology are needed to bridge the gap between business requirements and AAA infrastructure. 4 © 2016 Hitachi ID Systems, Inc.

  5. Slide Presentation 8 Compliance architecture Shared architecture to meet regulatory requirements: • Externalize administration and governance of identities and entitlements. • User-centric, not application-centric processes. Authentication Authorization Audit Infrastructure • Password management. • Federation. • Multi-factor login. • Privileged access management. • Automatic deactivation. • SoD policy enforcement. • Request forms, approvals workflow. • ID mapping. • Access certification, remediation. • Analytics reports. • Perimeter defense. • Anti-malware. • DLP. • SIEM. 9 Users accumulate access rights Over time, users change roles/responsibilities: With each transition, users accumulate entitlements: • Users change jobs, departments and locations. • There are many users, each with access to many systems. • From what? There is no record of every right a user had before, so old rights are not removed. • To what? Without a role model, it is impossible to say which of a user’s old rights should stay and which should go. • When? A reassigned user may back up his replacement for a while, so must retain old rights for an undefined period of time. 5 © 2016 Hitachi ID Systems, Inc. All rights reserved.

  6. Slide Presentation 10 Access certification HiAC automates periodic review and cleanup of entitlements: • Leverages org-chart data. • Delegates access review, cleanup and certification to managers. • Automated e-mail reminders to managers and other stake-holders. • Stake-holders review entitlements on a web form. • Entitlements are either certified or flagged for removal. • Stake-holders must sign off on completed reviews. 11 HiAC features HiAC automates periodic review and cleanup of user entitlements: • Capture: – Auto-discovery creates a clear picture of the actual state of user entitlements across the enterprise. • Leverage org-chart: – Management relationships can be used to structure a certification round. Allows delegation of access review, cleanup and certification to managers. • Notify: – Automated e-mail reminders to managers, app owners and other stake-holders. • Certify: – Entitlements are either certified or flagged for removal. • Sign off: – Stake-holders must sign off on completed reviews. • Action: – Upon approval (if required), the offending entitlements are automatically removed and the user is brought back into compliance. • Report: – Full reports to satisfy audit requests are available. 6 © 2016 Hitachi ID Systems, Inc.

  7. Slide Presentation 12 Accountability Up the Org Chart • Managers cannot sign off until all subordinate managers have signed off. – Creates a chain of accountability, flowing up the org-chart. • Managers are blocked from sign-off until their subordinate managers finish their own reviews. – Creates downward pressure throughout the organization to complete the review process. – Effective, low cost manager motivation. 13 Unique capabilities of HiAC Executive Assurance When the CEO or CFO signs off, they are assured that the process has been completed globally. They can then attest to this aspect of internal controls in a SOX compliance statement. Managers are automatically asked to review the rights of their subordinates. Non-response triggers reminders and escalation. Management pressure down the org-chart ensures that the process is actually completed globally. The only requirement is org-chart data. No role definition or user classification. Proactive Full coverage Rapid deployment 14 Summary HiAC gives CFOs and CEOs assurance of compliance with privacy and governance regulations: • Internal controls require clean data about users. • Improve security by finding and removing orphan and dormant accounts. • Eliminate unneeded login IDs and security rights left over after users changed jobs. • Actively engage all managers in a periodic review process. • Motivate managers to complete the process. • This is accomplished quickly, without resorting to role engineering.
