Swisscom’s Extranet for corporate customers has a new IAM infrastructure, including nevisIDM. In addition, Nevis implemented an application that enables rights management by the customer.
With the project “Generation Change Extranet” (German: “Generationenwechsel Extranet”), Swisscom replaced their user management and metadata management solution e-Services in the extranet for corporate customers. The new IAM infrastructure is based on the security suite of Nevis. In addition to nevisProxy and nevisAuth, it also includes nevisIDM for identity management. The new infrastructure provides both enhanced stability for the customer extranet and further extendibility for future business requirements.
At the same time, Nevis implemented a new graphical user interface (GUI) for the user management. Based on a multi-level hierarchical role concept and the respective rights profiles, responsibilities and rights are assigned to employees of Swisscom and individual corporate customers. The customer defines a person (master user) who is responsible for the administration and assignment of rights and contracts and who is authorized to assign administration rights to additional persons (delegates).
