What is OpenText Identity and Access Management?

Based on the former Covisit and now part of the OpenText Business Network Cloud, OpenText Identity and Access Management is a cloud-based identity and access management system that enables secure, efficient engagement and collaboration across large third-party ecosystems. The IAM solution is comprised of cloud-native technologies, built-in security frameworks and digital processes to scale third-party access in a non-linear fashion.
