Your job is to protect your infrastructure against misuse and direct threats, both internal and external. And that gets more complex as the technology does. Plus, it's a job that gets harder as users want more access, the bad guys get more weapons, and your funding fails to keep pace.

These challenges apply whether you're in the federal government and dealing with the ever-changing lists of mandates and memoranda, from Section 508 to HSPD-12 and the FICAM framework. In state or local government, it's all about trying to do more with less and keeping your infrastructure safe and secure. And in higher education, you've got to look for ways to expand your institution's ability to collaborate and share with other schools.

Quest provides powerful enterprise-wide solutions for cybersecurity, identity and access management (IAM), credential management, federation, compliance auditing and reporting. Quest One Identity Solutions include the industry’s most complete suite of privileged access management offerings that enable you to granularly control and audit administrative access to your environment.

Our Quest One solutions for identity intelligence provide your organization with complete control and 360-degree visibility on all IAM components so that you can make sound decisions in real time based on the needs of your organization – and not the limitations of your technology.

We’re the only vendor that can enable you to reach all of your IAM objectives – providing rapid time to value, unifying your existing infrastructure, and bringing simplicity to your organization’s complex security challenges.

To help agencies comply with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), federal cybersecurity experts published the Consensus Audit Guidelines, a document which identifies 20 security controls that are important for blocking cyberattacks. This technical brief explains how Quest Software can help you meet the requirements of 11 of these controls.

The Federal Identity, Credential, and Access framework - FICAM - is the architectural foundation for cybersecurity in the federal government. Quest's cybersecurity capabilities support all of the key FICAM components: identity management, access management, credential management, federation, and auditing and reporting.

Public sector organizations across the board - federal, state, and local governments as well as institutions of higher learning - need these capabilities. Assuring that your users can do what they need to do, and access what they are allowed to access - no more, no less - is a key to securing your infrastructure. Enabling organizations to securely recognize identities from one another is a key to maximizing resources, increasing efficiency, and collaborating productively. And the ability to audit and report on your infrastructure is a key to regulatory compliance, forensics, and trending. Learn more »

The industry-leading Quest One Identity Solutions, a suite of products anchored by Quest One Identity Manager, helps civilian agencies and the Department of Defense use the FICAM framework to meet the long list of federal cybersecurity mandates. The suite helps state and local governments and higher education institutions optimize the identity infrastructure already in place through automation and consolidation. And it makes single sign-on a reality across Windows and non-Windows identity repositories. Its identity intelligence technology ties together identities, roles, rules, workflows, policies, and approvals. Other Quest One products support provisioning, password management, and multifactor authentication. They also enable the truly granular control of privileged account management across Windows and Unix systems that's needed to maintain security, compliance, and accountability.

Quest One Identity Solutions for privileged account management cover a range of needs from shared credential management and security to platform-specific delegation and all of the audit needs to enforce access control and separation of duties.
