With DJSIR Oracle Identity Cloud Service, we have centralized user management, automated user provisioning, and de-provisioning, and enforced strong authentication and access controls to OACS, APEX, and ERP applications. Oracle Identity Cloud Service helps us to comply with regulatory requirements around user identity management, access control, and data protection. And the scope of our use is employee, customer, partner, and vendor identity and access management, as well as compliance and regulatory requirements.

Oracle Identity Cloud Service has proven to be an invaluable asset for DP World, helping us address critical business problems while enhancing our security and efficiency. By embracing IDCS, we have successfully positioned our organisation to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving digital landscape and ensure the continued success of our global enterprise. IDCS quickly became a best-in-class solution for DP World, increasing their efficiency, safety, and agility. The cloud-based solution provided numerous benefits, from gaining flexibility, reducing provisioning and management time for identities across their rapidly growing and changing user population, and greater access controls, making DP World more secure throughout.

• One positive impact of IDCS is that it can help businesses improve their overall security posture
• Another positive impact of IDCS is that it can help businesses reduce their overall IT costs
• One potential negative impact is that it can be complex and challenging to implement and manage
• It can be difficult to integrate with other systems and applications. Because IDCS is a cloud-based solution, businesses may need to use APIs and other integration tools to connect it with their existing systems and applications

We decided to introduce IDCS in our application framework in order to address SSO issue.

In detail our need was to create a SSO between an identity provider and some applications that didn't support this IDP and OCI PAAS and Oracle SAAS

These use cases was successfully solved .

• Decrease the operation costs of help desk due to reduce number of tickets
• Reduce time and costs of integrations
• Better user experience to access applications

We use Oracle Identity Management as a single sign-on for almost all applications. Internal systems are connected through Oracle Identity Management to provide a single sign-on experience to our internal customers, that includes, but is not limited to, our GRP system, HR, and Talent Management. It's also been extended to an external system for printing certificates for contractors in Dubai. That system is more critical than all other internal systems due to its use by business and external users.
