The identity maturity curve: How to close gaps and gain value
Identity is no longer just a security control; it is a core driver of business value. New global research from Foundry, conducted on behalf of OpenText, reveals that while most organizations rate their identity and access management (IAM) programs as mature, many still face frequent identity-related incidents and uneven policy enforcement. And while it's clear that organizations that strengthen their IAM maturity are unlocking clear business gains -- such as faster onboarding, higher productivity, easier audits, and lower costs -- many others struggle with integration challenges, competing priorities, and a shortage of expertise.
This whitepaper examines the current state of IAM maturity, identifies key barriers to progress, and outlines practical strategies for reducing risk and unlocking greater business value through identity.
