Patent number: 10951625Abstract: Techniques are described for unified identity and access management (IAM) across multiple applications in a distributed (e.g., cloud) computing environment. Implementations provide for IAM across multiple applications through use of a single, unified IAM tool including an IAM interface. The IAM tool can manage user identity and user access rights for multiple applications in the platform environment. The IAM tool can also employ a unified IAM database, which stores user profiles that each describes user access rights for a user in one or more applications. Through use of the unified IAM tool, an operator can access a single interface to manage user identity and access privileges across multiple applications which may have their own identity management interfaces, with user roles in different applications mapped through use of an equivalency matrix in some cases. The IAM tool can be used to add, remove, or edit user access privileges for multiple applications.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2018Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: Accenture Global Solutions LimitedInventors: Praveen Jadhav, Abdul Zafar, Jagaran Das
