Innovation
As identity requirements evolve, you need a team that can keep up with the challenge. Beacon's experienced architects and developers have built their careers translating challenging problems into game-changing solutions.
Testing is needed across all phases of an identity management product lifecycle. During implementations,
upgrades, or changes to a production environment, tests are run to make sure the code going into production
is stable and reliable. Many companies have manual test plans that are time-intensive, costly and
error-prone.
Beacon's Test product is a fully automated software testing solution that ensures broader testing coverage while reducing the costs and inefficiencies of manual testing processes.

- Quick-design web-based tests are used at critical stages of identity deployments
- Automated solution provides rapid insight to speed up development
- Reusable tests, so that as functionality is added or upgrades are released, identity teams save time (and money) by ensuring changes are accurate and ready to go into production
- Quickly identify differences in environments from development to production
- Provides greater coding efficiency by allowing rapid unit tests
- Saves time and money by making upgrade and production changes faster and easier
- Reduces risk of production environment failures with complete testing coverage
- Reduces risk of human error by automating repetitive steps
- Easily extends beyond identity management solutions
Identity Management systems sit at the heart of an enterprise's security environment. Certain changes to an
identity system, whether malicious or unintentional, can have huge repercussions across an entire IT
infrastructure - and they need to be caught and remedied in real-time. For example, operational problems
occur when an administrator unwittingly changes a password policy and the change gets synchronized across
thousands of user accounts. The fix in this case is costly in terms of man-hours -- and it could have been
avoided. Security problems also occur, such as a simple workflow change that allows root access long enough
for unauthorized access to take place. An identity management monitoring system allows identity teams to
proactively catch mistakes in real-time and to react faster when an unauthorized change has been detected.
Beacon's Monitor product was developed to provide targeted, real-time identity management monitoring and alerts on key activity across the entire identity infrastructure.
Beacon's Monitor product was developed to provide targeted, real-time identity management monitoring and alerts on key activity across the entire identity infrastructure.
- Conditions monitoring - server status, synchronization status, reconciliation status, target system availability
- Events monitoring - change to privileged account, create/update/delete change, workflow change, failed log-ins, password resets, approvals, role changes, administrator changes, synchronization changed/cancelled
- Configurable by alert levels (time-based or threshold-based), target audience and monitoring scenarios
- More than 40 supported scenarios based on forensic, operational and security requirements from customer deployments, and the ability to easily tailor new ones
- Ability to define key security parameters and interrogate provisioning systems against the parameters that matter the most
- Alert prioritization
- Ability to respond to and resolve events as they occur
- Integration with leading identity management systems, including Sun, Oracle and others
- Can be used stand-alone or integrated with network monitoring solutions such as Zenoss
- Rapid rollout and configurability - standard implementation complete in two days

Companies need an open, standards-based interface to easily integrate with their global identity system. At
the same time, they don't want to spend tons of money developing it themselves. Beacon's Interface product is a
completely customizable identity management interface that provides the starting point for tailoring your
user interface. Interface is a J2EE application that speaks standards-based SPML, making it completely open and
easy to customize and maintain.
- Meet corporate branding requirements
- Provide a single interface that spans multiple provisioning systems
- Customize their identity management interface
- Maintain the interface with Java developers - not identity management experts with skills in specialized languages
- Utilize industry-leading Service Provisioning Markup Language (SPML) for exchanging provisioning data
- Sustain a consistent brand image
- Reduce development costs by using an open, standards-based solution
