IdM is not AM

In the article, it says "also known as identity and access management". But access is something fundamentally different from an identity. And managing identities is something fundamentally different from managing access. It just can't be plausible defined as a synonym. It seems, the origin of this article was a sales presentation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.28.64.193 (talk) 15:33, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Scope of the "Enterprise" the Identity Management is a part of

I added an expansion in the first sentence of the article to "enterprise" to include those users "connected to" enterprise. This would include customers/clients that need access, partners and affiliates, and also services and other applications external to the formal business enterprise that might need access. None of those necessarily apply to all circumstances obviously but they are common extensions to the traditional boundaries of the "enterprise". Alex Jackl (talk) 15:56, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Short Description

I agreed with the changes made to the short description - simple is better in short descriptions after all- but felt that "systems" by itself was inadequate as it could imply a strictly technical approach so, to make it explicit nd clear as possible, I added "technical and policy" as adjectives to system.

Identity management → Identity and access management – It is both the WP:COMMONNAME and more WP:PRECISE about the scope. PhotographyEdits (talk) 14:41, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
