Identity and Access Management
Groups
Groups are directory objects used to either drive access to service or support communication (e.g. email distribution).
What is a Group?
A group consists of zero or more digital identities or accounts that all share a common definition. Groups provide a way to delegate access and supply business insight.
Can a person have multiple groups?
Yes, it is very likely that an individual will be a member of numerous groups at one time.
How are groups used?
The primary use of a group is to automate access to technology resources. They are also used to customize user experience by prioritizing content based on an individual's group membership.
