International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) announced on Friday a new AI-based feature within the IBM Consulting Advantage delivery platform called AskIAM, created to help clients with their identity and access management (IAM).

The new component is supervised by IBM's cybersecurity consultants with the purpose of simplifying identity management processes and providing advanced intelligence and automation to improve identity protection. The company stated that the need to modernize IAM systems is increasing since attackers more often use legitimate credentials to gain access.

"IBM's AskIAM uses AI to streamline access requests and reduce delays via integration with Microsoft Teams and Slack for notification and action. The AI assistant helps users, auditors, and executives get faster, easier access and better visibility into compliance and security. As an agent for identity, AskIAM delivers one of the most user-friendly experiences in the space," International Data Corporation's (IDC) Research Manager Scott Tiazkun commented.
