Federal Identity, Credential and Access Management (FICAM)

What will Federal Identity, Credential and Access Management (FICAM) mean to your organization?

With the FICAM release, the Federal government established a new standard that InfusionPoints expects OMB will follow with new memoranda and directives. Many Federal Agencies have previously implemented some level of infrastructure to meet requirements related to Identity Management, Credentialing, Privilege Management, Authentication, Authorization & Access, Cryptography, and Auditing. FICAM represents an opportunity to consolidate those efforts into a comprehensive and effective strategy. The first steps are to measure the maturity of existing ICAM policies, processes and infrastructure, and to develop a segment architecture and roadmap to keep you ahead of the FICAM curve.

InfusionPoints is your trusted partner. Our consultants specialize in implementing identity and access management and other large security and infrastructure programs in both the public and private sectors. InfusionPoints can assist by measuring your organization’s maturity in all areas related to FICAM, and defining a vendor neutral FICAM strategy. Once the gaps are understood, your organization will have a clear understanding of the steps required to fully realize the benefits offered by FICAM, including increased security, enhanced interoperability, improved customer service, and elimination of redundancy. An ICAM Roadmap that is aligned with FICAM will keep your organization ahead of forthcoming compliance mandates and allow the planning needed to have the required funding available for projects as needed.
Our consultants apply our proven ICAM frameworks and expertise to simplify identity, credential and access management infrastructures to increase security, privacy, compliance, efficiencies, and reduce costs.

    • An Adventure in Cloud Security

      Feb

      I recently registered for a website hosted by a government agency that handles some of the most sensitive personal information available within U.S. Government. While the site is only a simple scheduling system, imagine my dismay when I received an email confirming my registration that included both my username in password in the email body. That email demonstrates that, despite all of the reported attention to security over the past several years, especially within the Federal Government, we are failing to build an effective information security culture.

      As just about everyone who reads the news knows, Google announced on Tuesday, January 24, 2012 that it would merge the data it collects from individual users across all of its properties starting March 1, 2012. Basically, Google will be able to better anticipate how to direct individual user activities to best serve their needs, building a grand database of all user activity and behaviors. The question that few are asking, though, is what the impact will be on businesses. That's where things get really complicated.

    • More evidence that Multi-Factor authentication is no Panacea...

      Jan

      I've always been a strong proponent of the judicious use of strong authentication. Due to the government's push to introduce smart cards (known as HSPD-12), and industry standards like PCI, multi-factor authentication is becoming increasingly common for certain system access scenarios across a wide range of organizations.
