The Market
Analyst firm IDC expects this market to grow from $2.6
billion in 2002 to nearly $6 billion by 2006
Based on a Gartner survey of 30 senior security executives
in large companies, many organizations already have
internal secure identity management initiatives underway:
• 80% of Financial Services
• 70% of Retail
• 70% of High Tech

What the analysts are saying…
“The typical enterprise must manage increasingly virtual relationships
with employees, contractors, customers, partners, suppliers, and a
variety of other network constituents. The old way of thinking about
corporate boundaries and network security—the firewall as an
impenetrable perimeter—no longer apply.
Suddenly, the ability to manage identity has a direct impact on your
company’s brand and its ability to adapt to new business models. Do it
well and your company can make money in new ways. Do it poorly and
your company will be damaged severely.”

Benefit Analysis –– Continued
Security benefits
Centralization of the information security
Consistent security policy throughout the enterprise
Flexible security targets specific danger areas, such as external access or
after hours, without complicating regular user access
Strong multifactor user authentication

20
Benefit Analysis –– Continued
Architecture benefits
Framework approach: expandable architecture via Cognizance SDK
Add custom data sources, authentication methods, policies, and applications
High performance authorization architecture does not require fast
connection between Cognizance server and authorized applications
Special case: user identity on a smart card does not require connection to
Cognizance server
Large enterprise scalability with a standard load balancer and multiple
installations of Cognizance server
Can be used as part of managed services to provide security services to
multiple enterprises
