Active Login Manager (ALM) is a Single Sign-On (SSO) solution designed specifically for Cisco desktop telephones. According to the vendor, ALM simplifies the login process for users by eliminating the need to remember and enter their credentials multiple times a day. The product is suitable for businesses of any size and caters to various professions and industries, including IT professionals, system administrators, telecommunications professionals, call centers, and healthcare organizations.

## Key Features

According to the vendor, ALM offers the following key features:

**Single Sign-On**: ALM allows users to log into their Cisco desktop phone without manual entry of their Extension Mobility username and PIN. This feature aims to save time and reduce security risks associated with credential management.

**Automated Login and Logout**: ALM automatically logs off the connected phone during specific events, such as PC lock or screensaver activation. The vendor claims that this feature enhances the usability of Cisco IP Phone Extension Mobility by controlling the log on and log off process based on personalized events.

**Extension Mobility Integration**: According to the vendor, ALM seamlessly integrates with Cisco's Extension Mobility functionality available in every Unified Communications Manager version. It is compatible with all Cisco Unified Communications networks, leveraging existing APIs.

**Reachability**: ALM facilitates attendants and receptionists in checking the status of users on internal telephone lists. Additionally, it allows users to check their status within Microsoft Office Communicator Server (OCS) and Live Communications Server (LCS) networks, as claimed by the vendor.

**Enhanced Security**: ALM aims to enhance the security of business telephony by preventing unauthorized phone calls. According to the vendor, it automatically logs off the phone when the PC is locked or shut down. The product also offers customizable behavior to configure security settings.

**Flexibility**: The vendor claims that ALM provides users with the flexibility to move freely within the office environment without concerns about desk phone access. It automatically loads user settings onto the associated desktop telephone when they start their laptop or another device.

**ALM Pro Deployment**: ALM Pro is a client-only application, eliminating the need for additional server hardware. The vendor states that the software's deployment to existing networks is fully scriptable, simplifying the configuration process. The RSconnect Application Manager assists in managing large-scale installations.

**Inventory Manager (Optional)**: The optional Inventory Manager supports various virtualization technologies and WiFi-based phones. According to the vendor, it scans the network, maintains a mapping file of connected computers and desktop phones, and allows ALM to load end user profiles to the appropriate telephones based on the mapping information.

Identity Management (IdM) is essentially about creating, maintaining, and retiring individual enterprise accounts for IT security. Identity and Access Management (IAM) systems encompass this but also provide a framework that goes beyond digital identities to providing access to users in various roles in a relatively automated fashion for cost and efficiency, while yet presenting minimal risk to sensitive data or equipment, simultaneously creating an audit trail for lawful compliance. Depending on the implementation needed by the enterprise (i.e. who is logging in and to what largely determines this) these concerns can be somewhat, highly, or totally overlapping areas.

Making comparisons across suites of software and their vendors can be difficult as this apparently singular body of needs is  serviced by vendors in this area in a highly modular fashion who bridge gaps with strategic or technical partnerships and integrations.  But here "Identity Management" Software is defined as software which handles all or some of the tasks related to all of the above, which may be divided into:

-- Identity governance or provisioning (basically role management with workflow controls).

-- Access (authorization or restriction of access to certain information to certain persons across locations and systems).

 ...and the various methods of enabling rapid yet secure access like:

-- Single sign-on (SSO, describes the ability to login to the system once and only once, gaining access to all systems without need for logging in again via help from a server).

-- Multi-factor authentication (using multiple, independent components to gain access, a simple step to increase security, though at a cost of efficiency for each additional step).

-- Password management and self-help for password users.

-- Identity federation, related to SSO, access spanning system boundaries (e.g. cloud access).

-- Directory / User Repository Management for tracking of users with access, and

-- Security Analytics for auditing and compliance...

...and more. IAM software is most usually sold in a modular, configurable pieces-sold-separately fashion, where each module handles some but not all of these needs. Some of the strongest vendors in this area offer high specialization and strategic partnerships with other specializers while other established vendors, via both acquisitions and development, manage to cobble together comprehensive portfolios and subsume all the various needs under one grand suite of comprehensive IAM capabilities. Enterprises have gone both ways.


A later arriving area of identity management software that greatly up-prioritizes speed and ease of access over security is called by the vendors who specialize in it Customer Identity Management, which provides simple customer registration most often via Social Sign-On capability. This allows a user to instantaneously set up an account with a service provider merely by logging in via their preferred social network account; voila, the customer has (safe, limited) access, and the enterprise gains useful information about the potential customer in less than five seconds. While traditional Identity Management Systems offer the capability to do this, smaller vendors who specialize in customer access, with its high-efficiency / low-security demands, sometimes bundle the feature with other common marketing capabilities to leverage the instantly acquired customer data (e.g. email marketing, segmentation, landing pages, etc.), thus creating a (growing) niche of customer-facing identity management systems in the process.
