Main Takeaways:

  • “Enhance the user experience of external identities by choosing CIAM tools that support both B2B and B2C capabilities and include delegated administration, delegation of consent, and strong customer authentication as differentiators.
  • B2B needs can increasingly be supported by the same CIAM tools used for B2C
  • Fine-grained access control — for example, the ability to grant a user access to some, but not all, data in a specific application.
  • B2B use cases can require access rights to vary depending on the specifics of the business relationship”
