A new approach from E-SSO to identity and access management
NHS trusts are familiar with password sharing and management problems. From the clinician’s perspective we find busy people juggling five or six clinical system passwords, in addition to e-mail, internet and other passwords to remember for personal use. Over in the IT team, help-desk staff spend at least 30% of their time performing password resets. NHS trusts want this reduced immediately and wish to avoid the expected increase to 40% with the introduction of new applications. Additionally there are demands for implementing a strong enterprise password policy from those responsible for IT security and corporate governance policy. Sharing of user login sessions must stop to ensure effective auditing and information governance. This feature, sponsored by Evidian, explores answers to all these common scenarios using Evidian’s E-SSO solution which extends the use of Active Directory to deploy single sign-on integrated with the Connecting for Health Smartcard.
