Novell’s identity management business received a little lift.
=> ↺ identity management business
Demonstrating its commitment to helping enterprise customers address critical compliance needs, Novell is expanding its identity management solution with a Roles Based Provisioning Module. Stringent privacy policies and continually changing government regulations are driving forces for enterprises to utilize role management as part of their identity infrastructure.
Someone is apparently having regrets about excluding them.
Some of you may wonder why I didn’t include Novell in this list. Had I been writing this post straight after the Sun announcement it would have been. But not long after the announcement I came across this post from an identity management group blog at Novell, which discusses how the company has been building its own role management capabilities, focused on role provisioning, exploiting its directory heritage (discussed in more detail in our assessment here) and partnership with Eurekify for role discovery and analysis. The post’s author claims no knowledge of acquisition talks. Then lo and behold, and far be it from me to suggest that Sun’s announcement had anything to do with the timing, the next day Novell announced its new Roles Based Provisioning Module.
Of course, a Eurekify acquisition by Novell could still be on the cards, despite the blogger’s ignorance of any such discussions, but it seems to me based on Novell’s stated strategy that the Israeli company is more likely to end up in the arms of CA or IBM.
Novell’s SecureLogin has just had support for Windows Vista added.
