Abstract
A leading video gaming company in the USA was looking for identity access management overhaul which included application integration for consumers to enhance their market reach. The engagement also extended to supporting the run operations through a managed services model that covered:
- Single sign-on

Mindtree’s cybersecurity services team was involved in building and implementing the end-to-end solution with a state of the art IAM solution in the market. We are also managing the client’s identity support center for the services listed above.

The client was looking for an experienced partner for a swift upgradation of their IAM infrastructure where they could meet the business requirements for consumer identification, authentication and authorization services to increase their market reach in a connected world in a secure and scalable manner.
Key Differentiators
- Custom user registration module/component
- Readily available user consolidation, migration solution
Mindtree’s custom user registration and user migration solution helped in reducing the IAM solution’s implementation timeline. The solution go-live was delivered 3-4 months earlier than actual planned date.
Solution

Our IAM specialists documented the current landscape and challenges and presented the IAM solution after due consideration of the business requirements comprising of a centralized identity access management suite for automating the challenges identified above
