The BizRights IdM Integration Kit is available today and supports compliant provisioning with all of the leading IdM solutions including Sun, BMC, Oracle, IBM, Siemens and Computer Associates. It enables seamless integration with IdM solutions to ensure that accurate provisioning eliminates access control issues.

Approva's BizRights IdM Integration Kit is shortening the time to value and making compliant provisioning a reality for our customers."

By implementing a fully automated compliant provisioning process, IT and business managers will be able to respond more quickly to new user requests while ensuring approvals do not create additional compliance risk.
