What is compliance?
Identity Management Compliance refers to the adherence of an organization's identity management processes and systems to relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards.
Identity management is a critical aspect of cybersecurity and involves the management of user identities, their authentication, authorization, and access to resources within an organization's IT infrastructure.
Compliance in this context ensures that identity management practices align with legal and regulatory requirements, industry standards, and internal policies.
Compliance Solutions
IDHub is an Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), as well as an Identity and Access Management (IAM) solution, designed to meet regulatory compliance in various industries.
These components collectively contribute to a robust IAM compliance framework, helping organizations manage and secure user identities while meeting legal and regulatory obligations.
Compliance Integrations
Regulatory Frameworks
The compliance management feature integrates with relevant regulatory frameworks, industry standards, and best practices to ensure that the organization's identity security practices align with specific compliance requirements. IDHub includes pre-configured templates, mappings, or guidelines for common regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, or PCI DSS.
RBAC
Role Based Access Control
RBAC enables organizations to manage access privileges based on predefined roles, ensuring access permissions are aligned with regulatory requirements and best practices. RBAC allows organizations to enforce the principle of least privilege and minimize the risk of unauthorized access.
Compliance Check
Assessments and Audits
IDHub offers tools to assess and evaluate the compliance posture of the organization. It includes features like automated compliance assessments, vulnerability scanning, security auditing, and reporting capabilities to identify any gaps or non-compliance issues.
Access Control
Audit Trails and Audit Logs
IDHub provides comprehensive logging and auditing capabilities to track and monitor user activities, access requests, and changes made to the identity and access management system. This helps in demonstrating compliance, investigating security incidents, and generating compliance reports.
Analytics Reporting
Compliance Dashboards
IDHub offers reporting and analytics features to generate compliance reports, track key compliance metrics, and provide visibility into the overall compliance status. Compliance dashboards provide a centralized view of compliance-related information and assist in demonstrating adherence to regulatory requirements.
Regulatory Policy
Security Frameworks
IDHub provides a framework to define and enforce policies and regulations related to identity and access management. It allows organizations to establish rules and guidelines for user provisioning, access control, authentication, password policies, data protection, and other relevant areas.
User Access Review
User access reviews enable organizations to review user access rights on a regular basis, identify any potential risks or violations, and take corrective action as needed.
Regular reviews contribute to safeguarding sensitive data, aligning with compliance frameworks that emphasize the protection of personal and confidential information.
User access reviews are often mandated by regulatory requirements, ensuring that organizations comply with specific laws and standards governing access controls.
IDHub provides a tag based feature to perform various functions across the platform. An organization can tag each applications and permissions based on a specific regulatory body like HIPAA, NERC-SIP etc.
These tags can help perform quick reviews and reporting based on the specific compliance.
Below links will help illustrate our tags feature in full:
Reporting and Analytics
IAM reporting and analytics are essential for providing insights into user access patterns, detecting anomalies, and ensuring compliance, enabling organizations to proactively manage identity-related risks and enhance overall security posture.
By analyzing IAM data, organizations can make informed decisions, streamline access management processes, and respond effectively to evolving cybersecurity threats.
IDHub comes with many out-of-the-box reports and has capabilities of building easy custom reports using JS Reports.

Secure your data
Data Encryption Methods
Transit Encryption
IDHub supports encryption of data in transit using Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. This ensures secure communication between IDHub and the client server.
Data Encryption
IDHub provides encryption and decryption services for data at rest. It allows you to encrypt sensitive data, such as passwords, API keys, and certificates, using various encryption algorithms and key management strategies.
Key Management
IDHub offers a secure key management system that enables you to generate, rotate, and revoke encryption keys. It supports symmetric and asymmetric key encryption methods.
Key Wrapping and Unwrapping
IDHub allows you to wrap and unwrap encryption keys. Key wrapping involves encrypting a key with a master key, while key unwrapping is the reverse process of decrypting a wrapped key.
Dynamic Secrets Encryption
IDHub supports dynamic secrets, where it generates short-lived credentials for various systems, databases, and APIs. These dynamic secrets are encrypted and managed securely by IDHub.
Key Encryption and Transit Encryption
IDHub separates key encryption and transit encryption. You can encrypt keys with one encryption method and use a different encryption method for transit encryption, providing flexibility and security.
Secure Service Mesh
IDHub integrates with service mesh technologies, to provide encryption and secure communication between services. It enables encrypted communication channels and mutual TLS authentication between services in a distributed environment.
Encryption of Key-Value Store
IDHub's key-value store can be configured to encrypt data at rest. This ensures that sensitive configuration data stored in IDHub key-value store is encrypted and protected from unauthorized access
