Abstract

Methods and systems for controlling and managing identity and access management risks are presented. A computing device may generate a maturity model that maps a plurality of access management controls to a plurality of information technology (IT) resources associated with an IT environment. Subsequently, the computing device may determine, for each IT resource of the plurality of IT resources, a plurality of access management maturity scores. Each access management maturity score of the plurality of access management scores may correspond to an access management control of the plurality of access management controls that are associated with the corresponding IT resource. The computing device then may determine an aggregate maturity score for the IT environment based on the plurality of access management maturity scores for the plurality of IT resources. Thereafter, the computing device may provide the maturity model and the aggregate maturity score to at least one governance system.
