This document discusses delivering Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions as a managed service from the cloud. It describes ForgeRock's IAM platform and how Telekom delivers it as Identity Protect Pro. Identity Protect Pro is a managed IAM service that uses virtualization, containers, and automation tools to deploy and manage standardized ForgeRock software bundles for customers in a secure, high-availability private cloud environment.
