PIAM deployment

Cloud or on prem? Your PIAM strategy should be your choice.

Your security strategy should determine how you deploy. Not your vendor.

Moving to the cloud can deliver significant advantages. But when, how and whether you make that move should be based on your organization’s security requirements, infrastructure and business priorities.

Identity-first access

The deployment decision stays with you.

With Alert Enterprise, you have the flexibility to choose the deployment approach that works for your organization.

Stay on prem.
Move to the cloud.
Evolve when you’re ready.

And moving forward shouldn’t mean paying again just to maintain the capabilities your organization already depends on.

 

Before you migrate

Moving to the cloud shouldn't mean starting over.

A cloud migration is about more than moving technology from one environment to another.

Before making your next PIAM move, ask:

Your organization has already invested in building its physical identity and access strategy.

Moving forward shouldn’t mean rebuilding it.
