Problem
The evolution of the distributed enterprise has led to the proliferation and fragmentation of its digital ecosystem. Today the average enterprise manages on average 254 technologies that are operating in silos across disparate digital environments. This has significantly increased complexity, risk, workloads and cost while reducing decision intelligence and agility.
Lack of Centralised Governance
Managing governance policies and controls across multiple systems, applications, and environments in a decentralised approach leads to inconsistencies, compliance gaps, and increased risk.
Manual and Time-Consuming Processes
Manual governance tasks, such as access provisioning, policy enforcement, and compliance reporting, are labour-intensive and prone to errors. This inefficiency hampers productivity and increases operational costs.
Inadequate Visibility and Accountability
Without unified visibility, it is difficult to gain visibility into access rights, track changes, and ensure accountability across the organisation. This lack of visibility increases the risk of unauthorised access and insider threats.
Compliance and Regulatory Challenges
The absence of centralised governance makes it challenging for organisations to demonstrate compliance and respond to audit requirements effectively.
Solution
The BlockAPT Platform offers a comprehensive solution for federating governance, enabling organisations to centrally manage and enforce governance policies across their entire IT infrastructure.
Centralised Management and Control
BlockAPT’s centralised management platform offers native control from one interface and enables organisations to define, manage, and enforce governance policies that are uniformly applied across their entire IT infrastructure.
Automated Governance Processes
Automated workflow processes can streamline operations and reduce manual effort. This includes access provisioning, deprovisioning, policy enforcement which can enhance compliance processes and reporting.
Unified Visibility and Reporting
Centralised visibility into access rights, permissions, and governance activities provides real-time monitoring and reporting of user activity, the ability to track changes and detect anomalies promptly.
Access Management and Control
The BlockAPT Platform ensures that users have appropriate access privileges based on their roles and responsibilities from a single interface.
Consistent policy enforcement
Consistent governance policies can be uniformly applied across systems, applications, and environments allowing for better governance and a more resilient security posture.
