Resource Ownership and Management

Resource Management in EmpowerID is a core capability that enables organizations to delegate day-to-day administration of digital assets—such as groups, users, roles, and applications—without compromising governance or security. It is distinct from *processing and configuration management*, which involves the design and operation of the policies and workflows that govern system behavior. Resource management focuses on the operational oversight of individual objects within the system. This includes managing the lifecycle, ownership, access policies, and visibility of users, groups, computers, management roles, applications, shared credentials, and other protected resources. Crucially, EmpowerID allows this form of management to be delegated to individuals who may not have deep technical expertise, but who have business responsibility for the resources in question. These delegated users typically interact with the system through simplified interfaces and guided workflows.Resource Ownership and Management
