PCM+ IDM V4 S/W MOD LICS W/500-USER LIC
Overview
HP Identity Driven Manager (IDM), a plug-in to HP PCM+, dynamically provisions network security and performance settings based on user, device, location, time, and endpoint posture. Identity Driven Manager provides network administrators with the ability to centrally define and apply policy-based network access rights that allow the network to automatically adapt to the needs of users and devices as they connect, thereby enforcing network security while providing appropriate access to authorized network users and devices. Identity Driven Manager is a powerful tool that allows network administrators to efficiently manage the users and devices connecting to their network.
Features
Performance
⁍ Traffic prioritization: can be automatically applied for each session based on user, device, location, and time of day, allowing appropriate prioritization of network traffic
Security
⁍ Policy-based network access rights: network access policies specifying network security and performance are defined based on the user, time, location, device, and endpoint posture and then dynamically enforced at the edge of the network, where users and devices connect
Integration
⁍ HP network management solutions: HP PCM Plus: IDM is delivered on the HP PCM+ Secure Domain Architecture, which delivers increased scalability and security. HP Network Immunity Manager: IDM delivers enhanced integration with HP Network Immunity Manager, which monitors the network for threats and applies policy-based mitigations to offending endpoints or users; IDM and NIM work together to provide consistent and effective network security.
Ease of use
⁍ Simple Network Access Control: Self-registration: reduces administration effort by enabling end users to add themselves to the access control database; user's access is validated via an Active Directory; no additional software is required on end-user systems. Auto-allow groups: devices such as IP phones, printers, and certain uncontrolled devices can be given network access and segregated by device type.
Warranty and support
⁍ Electronic and telephone support: limited electronic and telephone support is available from HP; refer to www.hp.com/networking/warranty for details on the support provided and the period during which support is available
