Major IAM Challenges in the Retail Industry
Elevate Your IAM Maturity
Secure access for employees, partners, and customers across all channels
Retailers face unique IAM challenges due to the high volume of customer data, complex supply chains, and various sales channels. Retail businesses, from brick-and-mortar stores to eCommerce platforms, require secure, seamless access for employees, partners, and customers alike.
Managing access across multiple platforms, including inventory management, POS systems, and customer loyalty programs, is vital.
Shared devices, high employee turnover, and third-party vendor access complicate matters further, making solutions like Enterprise Single Sign-On (ESSO) and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) critical. Compliance with PCI DSS, GDPR, and CCPA requires robust identity governance and strict auditability to secure customer data and maintain a resilient retail environment.
Protecting Sensitive Customer Information
Data Security Risks
PII Protection: Safeguarding Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from cyberattacks and unauthorized access is critical for maintaining customer trust.
Data Breaches: Retail data breaches can lead to costly fines, loss of reputation, and diminished customer loyalty.
Regulatory Compliance
PCI DSS: Adherence to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is mandatory to protect payment card information and avoid penalties.
GDPR and CCPA: Retailers must comply with global data protection laws, ensuring customer data is handled appropriately and securely.
Adhere to PCI DSS, GDPR, and CCPA standards
Avoid penalties and protect your brand reputation
Retail Employees: Store associates, warehouse workers, and corporate staff need quick, secure access to sales and inventory systems.
Supply Chain Partners: Distributors, suppliers, and third-party vendors require controlled access to inventory management and logistics platforms.
Customers: Shoppers expect secure, seamless access to online accounts, loyalty programs, and personalized offers.
Managing Complex Access Needs
Streamline Role-Based Access for all employees
Access Control Challenges
Role-Based Access: Ensuring the right employees have access to the necessary systems without causing friction or compromising security.
Employee Turnover: Efficiently managing user access during frequent onboarding and offboarding of retail staff to prevent security gaps.

Integrating Disparate Systems & Operational Efficiency
System Silos: Fragmented identities across older platforms and new eCommerce solutions create security risks and inefficiencies.
Omnichannel Experience: Integrating physical store operations with online platforms requires consistent access management and security policies.
Seamless Access: Employees need fast, secure access across systems to improve customer service and business performance.
Technology Onboarding: Rapid integration of new technologies such as mobile apps and payment systems is crucial to stay competitive.
