”Gartner predicts that client self-service will account for 58 percent of all service interactions by 2010, due to their dramatic contribution to the reduction of cost of operating an IT environment” Self-service
7
Do you consider Self-service important and an area to focus? Self-service Do you have a Self-service strategy? What implications do you see and what are your main concerns?
8
In order to enable Self-service people need access Self-service A forgotten password leaves the user without access, so consider password self-service as part of your Self-service initiatives!
9
The Password Pain - Service Desk ( Aberdeen Group ) Calls to IT Service Desk - Gartner analysts says that 20-50% of all Service Desk calls are for password reset - Forrester suggests that the average cost for a single password reset could be as high as $100 - FastPassCorp research indicates anything from $25 - $147
10
The Password pain - user side - Forgotten or a lost password will leave the user un-productive – and frustrated! - Un-productivity can be extreemely costly – and so – a password reset needs severity 1 - So, what’s the price for a single password reset if the requirement basically is 24*7? The average time to resolve a forgotten password request will vary from 4 hours - 40% of industry norm companies takes <1 hour
11
The security issue For a start – lets look at the nature of the password! - Used for (secure!) Identification (authentication) of users - Supposed to be private – ”For your eyes only” - One of three Identification methodologies: ”something you know” ”something you have” ”something you are” Jane45#jacobs§99124%
12
The security issue - continued The password reset proces – a double sided who-is-who - If passwords are ”for your eyes only” – what about person in the Service Desk (or the outsourced Service Desk)? Fact: 60-80% of IT crimes are insiderjobs! - Secure Identification of the user calling, and a secure password handover proces is a demand to accomodate compliancy initiatives ( Sarbanes Oxley act, ISO 27001 etc.) Who is responsible??
13
FastPass Password Manager v3 Utilizes the existing Microsoft infrastructure (AD,ADAM/ADLDS) Secure identification of users (multi-authentication engine) Advanced notification services Access from anywhere (XP, Vista, Windows 7, Browsers (PC & mobile), Service Desk portals (Service Req. mgmt.) Scalable to large and complex environments incl. MSP’s SR/Incident forwarding to HP Service Manager Automated enrolment Services Enforces password policies Multi-system reset for other platforms/systems (SAP, AS/400, SQL, Generic connector etc.) Web-services (SOA) application Fast implementation (1-2 days on windows)
14
Secure identification Configurable Multi-factor authentifikation –Profile based, and the profile is determined dynamically. –Profile is based on attributes and status. Does the session come from a specific network (secure eller insecure). Is the user member of a specific group (Administrator or normal user) Has the user enrolled Does the user have a mobile phone –Personal questions (Challenge questions) –One-time pincode for the mobile phone
15
Easy enrollment Discovery Service –Collects users and groups –Is working almost like Hardware/Software Inventory solutions (Scanning, Collecting, Storing) Enrollment Service –Invites users to enroll into FastPass Password Manager –Enables high enrollment rate and can also be used to inform/remind about the presence –Scheduling of invitations –Operates on a time line where the ”offset” time can be a specific time or a time relative to the discovery of a user –Invitations can be sent by e-mail or SMS High enrollment percentage is necessary to win the productivity gains! New NAG screen in V 3.4!
16
Notification 16 Mail and/ or SMS notification at selected events to receivers Events examples –A password has been reset –A user has tried to enroll –A new user has been discovered Receivers (examples): –The user –The user’ manager –The administrator –The HelpDesk system
