ISIM Access

ISIM Access is the ability to use a specific resource, such as a shared folder or an application. Access uses login information (for example user ID and password) on the specific resource with which it is associated. IBM Security Identity Manager access is granted on shared folders and other managed resources such as applications (WebSphere Application Server)), operating systems (UNIX), or other managed resources.

Access differs from an account. While an account allows you to log in to a managed resource such as an operating system, the access determines what you can do while logged in on that account. When new access is granted to a resource, by default an account is created on that resource. If one account already exists, the account is associated with the access. If multiple accounts exist, you must select the user ID of the account to which you want to associate your access.
