A IBM Case Study
Exostar, a trusted platform for business partner collaboration in highly regulated industries, faced growing complexity in managing third-party access across large supply chains and multiple environments. As the company expanded its Access: One identity and access management platform, it needed a more efficient way to govern identities, reduce cyber risk, and maintain compliance while supporting secure access for partners and suppliers.
Exostar implemented IBM Verify Identity Governance with Access: One to automate fine-grained access control, closed-loop provisioning, and activity-based compliance management. With IBM, Exostar translated more than 10,000 entitlements into a few hundred business roles, cut certification and compliance work from months to weeks, onboarded partners in under 4 hours instead of 5 days, and reduced service desk ticket volume by over 35%.
