IDM Today and Tomorrow

ProCurve solutions are inherently flexible and enable companies to enhance their networks over
time, not continually rip and replace as new technologies become available.
Today’s ProCurve PDM solutions authenticate individuals using RADIUS-based technologies
already in place. Traditional authentication processes were a yes/no affair. If a user successfully
authenticated, he or she was allowed on the network largely without restriction. If not, he or
she was simply denied access. In contrast, ProCurve PDM solutions authenticate users based on
5
several factors, including their identity, client device, location, time of day and services for
which they are given access rights.
