Clas Ohlson chooses a cloud-based solution for managing its Identity Governance and IAM. Clas Ohlson has therefore signed a 36 month agreement with ID North AB for the delivery of SailPoint IdentityNow^TM, SailPoint’s cloud-based identity governance solution.

Today, ID North AB announced that it signed an agreement with Clas Ohlson in January on the introduction of a cloud-based product for managing its IAM and Governance.

Clas Ohlsons Operations Manager, Daniel Mukka commented that ”Efficient and correct handling of Entitlements and Identites is a prioritized area right now as this is potentially a major security risk – but to do it manually presents us with great costs and risks. That is why we chose to invest in an Identity Governance & IAM solution from the market leader Sailpoint” ” He continues “the short implementation project ID North presented and the simplified running management that a cloud solution contributes to are also important factors for us.”

Jens Björkman, CEO of ID North, is very pleased with the deal and is convinced that this is the way forward for many companies who want to become “Compliant” but who may think that a full-scale IAM project will be too big.

“SailPoint is the market leader in IAM in general and so also within cloud based IAM where one of the few players is actually building a true cloud solution, that is, not just coughing its usual software for customers “.

“It’s very good that Clas Ohlson chose ID North for his partner in this and it consolidates our position as the top SailPoint consultants in the country.” He concludes.
