pinSpark ensures Secure IT Access for Insurance Industry
Protecting data against
unauthorized access is a critical mission for IT departments at
insurance companies. The Pinnacle pinSpark role-based access
governance suite makes it possible to accomplish that mission within
budget and without taking months to complete.
pinSpark is ideally
suited to solve insurance organizations’ access management
issues, including:
Complying with
government and industry regulations covering the security of
sensitive customer data
Maintaining a
trustworthy, reliable reputation to customers and partners.
Keeping IT and IT
security cost effective. Insurance firms, like many businesses, must
reduce inefficient and potentially costly processes. These include
manual account provisioning, which can be time consuming and prone
to error, and the potential cost of a security breach or loss of
data.
The pinSpark role-based
access governance system helps insurance firms to meet these
challenges by providing key security management and auditing
options.
Auditing and
certification. The pinSpark software regularly scans roles and
assigned accounts and checks them against security guidelines. It
also provides a compliance auditing process so that IT managers can
check for compliance with specific regulations, such as HIPAA or
Sarbanes-Oxley, and generate a certificate of compliance.
Separation-of-duty
alerts. Conflicting or inappropriate access is flagged and reported.
When roles or access rights appear to violate a security policy,
pinSpark warns the IT manager of the potential problem.
Role-based
provisioning. By using pinSpark's role engineering and management
capabilities, IT managers can provision employees with IT accounts
and resources much more quickly than before.
Multiple reporting
options. pinSpark provides both canned reports and customizable
report templates for tracking a variety of factors, including SOD
violations, policy compliance, and changes to existing roles.
Executives and supervisors can also view key data on a customizable
dashboard.
