Identity Management

Within the Case Management System (CMS) ecosystem, Identity Management (IM) provides authorization/authentication for confidentiality and restrictions to all/parts of a case.

This document also provides guidance on the types of solutions available for implementing the Identity and Access Management component.

  1. Automate the initiation, capturing, recording and management of user identities and their related access permissions.
  2. Provide single sign-on.
  3. Provide two-factor authentication
  4. Provide different kinds of access to different kinds of users:
    1. Support multi-agency levels of cooperation regarding access to cases and access to case data and person data and at the same time protect the individual agency data as defined by the particular agency. (Example: Law enforcement is able to see certain documents (such as sealed warrants) that other participants are not permitted to access, or an agency can prohibit access to specific data.)
    2. Identity primary users, trusted partners, and extended partners (such as social services).
    3. Set up levels of public access – internal users, bar members and the general public.
  5. Protect personally-identifying information and other forms of case data protection, such as judicial notes and information, sealed cases and victim/witness information.
