Refer to the following books on topics that are related to Tivoli Identity Manager:

򐂰 Enterprise Security Architecture Using IBM Tivoli Security Solutions, SG24-6014

This IBM Redbooks publication reviews the overall Tivoli Enterprise Security Architecture. It focuses on the integration of audit and compliance, access control, identity management, and federation throughout extensive

Chapter 1. Certification overview 35 e-business enterprise implementations. The available security product diversity in the marketplace challenges everyone in charge of designing single secure solutions or an overall enterprise security architecture. With Access Manager, Tivoli Identity Manager, Federated Tivoli Identity Manager, Security Compliance Manager, Security Operations Manager, Directory Server, and Tivoli Directory Integrator, Tivoli offers a complete set of products designed to address these challenges.

This book describes the major logical and physical components of each of the Tivoli products. It also depicts several e-business scenarios with different security challenges and requirements. By matching the desired Tivoli security product criteria, this publication describes the appropriate security

implementations that meet the targeted requirements.

This book is a valuable resource for security officers, administrators, and architects who want to understand and implement enterprise security following architectural guidelines.

򐂰 Integrated Identity Management using IBM Tivoli Security Solutions, SG24-6054

This IBM Redbooks publication provides a solution-oriented overview of using Tivoli security products to provide an implementation for integrated identity management based on real-life customer experience.

When defining functional requirements for e-business-related projects, you have to take into consideration a serious amount of security-related tasks and disciplines. These disciplines are authentication and credential acquisition, use of directory infrastructures, session management, multiple tiers of single sign-on, authorization, administration, users and policy, accountability, and availability. Together they stand for the integrated identity management approach, an approach that should be regarded as a holistic way of tying security requirements into your projects.

This book is a valuable resource for security officers, administrators, and architects who want to understand and implement enterprise security following these guidelines.

򐂰 Identity Management Design Guide using IBM Tivoli Identity Manager, SG24-6996

Identity management is the concept of providing a unifying interface to manage all aspects related to individuals and their interactions with the business. It is the process that enables business initiatives by efficiently managing the user life cycle, including identity/resource provisioning for people (users), and by integrating into the required business processes.

Identity management encompasses all the data and processes related to the representation of an individual involved in electronic transactions.

This IBM Redbooks publication provides a methodology for designing an identity management solution with Tivoli Identity Manager V4.6. Starting from a high-level, organizational viewpoint, we show how to define user registration and maintenance processes using the self-registration and self-care

interfaces and the delegated administration capabilities. Using the integrated workflow, we automate the submission and approval processes for identity management requests, and with the automated user provisioning, we take workflow output and automatically implement the administrative requests on the environment with no administrative intervention.

This book is a valuable resource for security administrators and architects who want to understand and implement a centralized identity management and security infrastructure.

򐂰 Identity Management Advanced Design for IBM Tivoli Identity Manager, SG24-7242

Identity and user life cycle management projects are being deployed more and more frequently—and demand is growing. By demonstrating how Tivoli Identity Manager can be made resilient and adapted to special functional requirements, this IBM Redbooks publication creates or enhances confidence in the Tivoli Identity Manager-based solution for senior management,

architects, and security administrators.

Advanced design topics can start with infrastructure availability for all involved components, Web application, and database server clustering as well as LDAP multi-master setups, continuing with compliance challenges addressing enhanced auditing and reporting, and designing and creating your own self-care/self-registration application environment that embraces external users and business partners offering fine-tuned workflow options and life cycle management capabilities.

The powerful features and extensions of Tivoli Identity Manager are opening doors into a world of advanced design and customization for every identity management challenge you might encounter.

򐂰 Deployment Guide Series: IBM Tivoli Identity Manager 5.0, SG24-6477 Deploying an identity management solution for a medium size business begins with a thorough analysis of the existing business and IT environment.

After we fully understand the organization, their deployed infrastructure, and the application framework, we can define an applicable representation of these assets within an identity management implementation.

This IBM Redbooks publication takes a step-by-step approach to implementing an identity management solution based on Tivoli Identity Manager. Part 1 takes you through an example company profile with existing business policies and guidelines and builds an identity management solution design for this particular environment. In Part 2, describes how the new

Chapter 1. Certification overview 37 identity management components can be integrated into the existing

environment. Then, it focuses on the detailed configuration of identity management integration tasks that must be implemented to create a fully functional end-to-end solution.

This book does not introduce any general identity management concepts, nor does it systematically explain all of the Tivoli Identity Manager components and capabilities; instead, those details are thoroughly discussed in Identity Management Design Guide using IBM Tivoli Identity Manager, SG24-6996, and Enterprise Security Architecture Using IBM Tivoli Security Solutions, SG24-6014.
