¿Qué es SAP IdM?
La sigla IdM pertenece a Identity Management. Pertenece a seguridad de SAP, y sería como un sub-componente de lo que es NetWeaver.Me ha gustado mucho como SAP define esta herramienta, les cito tal cual lo expone en su documento oficial sobre SAP IdM:
Everybody Needs a Secret Identity
Every superhero has a super secret identity. Well, so what? Every end user in your organization has about twenty. Ids and passwords surround your users. Every application and system and often even different instances of the same system require unique logon information. This is complicated and confusing for everyone and carries a high administrative cost for IT.
