Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Identity Access Management (OCI IAM) vs. RSA Access Manager (Discontinued)

Scenarios where IDCS is well suited:

• Oracle Identity Cloud Service is well-suited for organizations that require a centralized approach to managing user access and authentication across multiple applications and services.

• Organizations with strict compliance requirements

Scenarios where IDCS might be less appropriate:

• Organizations with limited customization requirements

RSA helped to have a reliable services for the 2FA authentication

• Restrict access to the applications outside our organization network.
• Multiple IDP configurations make it easy for us to authorize access.
• The adaptive security feature lets us know high-risk users.

Incentivized

• Used in conjunction with our Active Directory for 2-factor authentication
• The virtual RSA token for multiple devices makes it easy to avoid needing a physical device
• The ability to leverage real-time analytics to identify when step-up is required

• DJSIR Oracle Identity Cloud Service is federated with DJSIR SSO. When an employee leaves the company an office account will get deleted but it's not reflecting in Oracle Identity Cloud Service or the profile is not getting deleted from Oracle Identity Cloud Service console.
• Oauth setup for the application is a bit confusing
• Increase the number of reports available

• The support for new LDAP version(389-DS)

Oracle cloud services meets most of our needs. I hope in the future we could look at more of the OIG functions included so we could move away from needing to stand up that component.

The support for Oracle Identity Cloud Service is generally good. Nevertheless, it can take some time to get a response from the support team which creates initial frustration, and the customer will have to wait till the SR gets assigned to a support person.

Oracle's Identity Cloud Service works more in conjunction with the aforementioned. I think it works similar to Oracle Identity Management (OID) but seems a little more abstracted.

Nothing as this point. At the end of 2019 we plan to start looking into alternatives

I hope at some point we could get away from needing to "bring our own" licenses and just have a unique user login rate.

Oracle provided various services we could take advantage of to get the environment configured correctly without needing to hire contractors.

Incentivized

• It streamlined our Oracle PAAS implementation where we were able to achieve single sign-on functionality seamlessly.
• It provided us the feature to restrict outside access.
• It provided us with features to perform social IDP configuration for our custom applications.

• To be compliant with the Security Standards about the 2FA
