It depends the role, I've seen IAM Analyst roles start at 50k (usd), which IMO is low. Where some developer jobs are a bit higher at 70k. Also, the industry, for example working for a health care company vs. say a federal contractor. Some will pay higher than others while other compensate with better benefits.

@@AllThingsIAM What would you predict from Dow Jones in New Jersey? Do you think they would compensate around 70k?

IAM usually manages the access to app in the OSI layer 7 and sometimes 5 (session). IAM tools and processes can touch some networking but not a lot. So, yes, access control, user lifecycle, management, and identity governance is the key components of IAM.

Thank you for the comment, this makes my day!

I’m actually going to take this cert again early next year. I’ll post my thoughts on it.

Is the Apache tomcat services running?

@@AllThingsIAM yeah Apache tomcat services running

So, Sailpoint IIQ and even their cloud version is mainly an IGA or Identity Governance Administration tool, meaning it handles a user's lifecycle from start to finish. It also provides the ability to assign roles, entitlements, and even handle user access certifications. Where Okta was build to handle access management and SSO into applications for users, where SailPoint IIQ does not do that. Okta has in the past few years expanded their catalog and offers an IGA module that customers can add. Why don't most companies use both? I cannot answer that as it's really up them, but I have worked for companies who have used SailPoint to handle the IGA and Okta to do the access management part. Also, with many companies buying each other up, there been a push to give customers the convienence of buying one tool say Okta that can handle their entire IAM needs (IGA, PAM, Access Management) vs buying three separate tools from three separate companies that can cost a decent amount of $$$$.

I’ll see where I can do. I don’t think I have that file to run.

Glad you liked it!

100% glad the video was helpful

​@@AllThingsIAM Will the course be on only Linkedin learning? Will you do a video on it when it's available? What's your take on someone who is physical access control administrator for a commercial real estate company, and uses on-premise and cloud-based access control systems/tools to provision and deprovision credentials for tenants looking to pivot into IAM? Will that count as an IAM experience, and can that be an example of IGA?

Because your guidance is very helpful for me.

Please reach out to me [email protected]

I don't think so because you need to create an app registration. I think but not 100% that you'll need a P2 license.

Thank you for watching!

Awesome! My goal is to make IAM terms and examples as easy to understand as possible. Thank you for watching.

Yeah I provide thank you notes when I interviewed but there are many who say it’s old school, but I still do them. Thank you for watching.

Hi, I hope I treated you with the utmost respect during the interview. I’m handling my own as an Okta admin for the agency I support. Thank you for watching my videos providing a comment.

Without seeing your resume, how are you showing the knowledge gained when achieving those certs? I think it’s awesome you have them. However, can you tell me why you want to use cyberark, why Pam, etc. Also, you said you had little it exp. I feel doing projects and adding them to your resume will help you with hiring managers. It shows you know how to apply what you’ve learned in the IAM space and that you can explain what you did and why.

I’m happy it was helpful:)

Im actually working on developing a roadmap for folks like yourself. I was working on a new LinkedIn learning course but that is done, so my focus is the roadmap. As for mentor, book a session with me via my website, I’d love to chat with you.

No, it’s not. IAM is focused on giving folks the right access and the right time. DB admins do manage access for users to login to their DB but DB also help make the DB faster for searches etc.

Professional, I don’t think so. I don’t know if SailPoint university has a free into course or not. Reason why I made this video was to showcase the basics for people.

@@AllThingsIAM got it. Thanks

I have not used that other two products before. I’d love to get my hands on it and mess around. Sorry.

Quick question. How come you are not able to get job offers? Have you gotten any job interviews and do you have any projects on your resume? Also, are you new to the IT field?

Are you to create a server add it to a domain? Then create group policies to lock down or grant access to certain features. Complete that add it to a resume you’ll get a job . And do the same in the cloud as well using conditional access etc

Hi I’m sorry for the late reply, getting a certification can help you get an interview but it’s not the all end be all. Like the others have commented, you need to make sure you have experience or project in addition to your resume. Are you getting calls back from recruiters or interviews?

Sorry for the late response. For speaking, I read a few public speaking books that helped me feel more confident. After that, it’s just practice and at the end, say F it and do it! If you mess up or stutter, all good :) trust me, I’ve 100% stuttered during a presentation at a conference before. I laugh at it and move on. Trust me, I know you can do it….:)

Interesting let me take a look.

Great!!! Best of luck on your interview

Yeah, I can do that. I’m working on a video to show a joiner process from IIQ to entraID. I’ll add the certification one too my list.

Can you please share the playlist for CIAM training and certification

Also, is it necessary to customize all the listed attributes in Azure as custom in Okta? I have 6 Attributes and claims in Azure but only customized email, first, and last_name in Okta attribute.

Oh let me take a look at that. Thank you for letting me know

Try now: allthingsidentity.com/

​@@AllThingsIAMThanks. However your url is missing the www part. It seems that when I put www in your site url, it doesn't work and gives site not found error. It seems to be a domain or hosting issue. I would love to go through your site, however since your url is currently do not have the www part, it is probably not secure.

Hi! Iirc the file is saved as a .crt file, change it to a .cer and it will show up.

I don’t think you need to keep your resume to 1 page anymore. It depends in my opinion the level of experience you have. I feel 2 is sufficient. Finally, I think you should put projects near the top of your resume if you don’t have a lot of working experience in the IAM field. It can help showcase that even though you don’t have “working experience” you have done projects showing you know the stuff.

@@AllThingsIAM I have been stuck with this error "The domain portion of the userPrincipalName property is invalid. You must use one of the verified domain names in your organization." when I submitted the form. how can I get pass this?

If you are looking to work on projects implementing/maintaining IIQ, I feel it’s nice to have. It helps validate you know what you are doing and it could help you when it comes time for salary negotiations.

Haha. They said sailpoint can do what??? Ummmmm crap! I say that often ahah. I can make a video on my experiences on that and what I’ve learned from an integrator and a customer.

What error did you get?

@@AllThingsIAM I get error 404 and my login page for Sailpoint doesn’t show up. I did verify that MySQL and Tomcat is running

@@jaylaflare7354 Make sure that the directory <root>\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 9.0\webapps\host-manager exists. If not, copy the “manager” folder in webapps and rename it to “host-manager

Having the same issue, checked everywhere on how to resolve it. ut all to no avail. Did you later solve it?

@@AllThingsIAM I have the same issue, the both file "host-manager" and manager do exist. i am running tomcat 9.0 too.

I don’t have experience with Savyint so I can’t help you there. However, I plan on making more IIQ videos so stay tuned for that.

@@AllThingsIAM thank you. Will appreciate that

My next video, I plan on doing that and setting up a connector, so stay tuned for that.

@@AllThingsIAM perfect, waiting!

Mainly getting on IAM projects when the customer wants IIQ. That or you work for an Identity shop like an IDWorks or an Ic Consult.

Thank you! I look forward to chatting with you.

I sort of do. I offer coaching and if you want me to help you with understanding it better, I can do that.

@@AllThingsIAM can I have your email address.Thanks

@@AllThingsIAM How can I reach you? do you have an email address.

​@@AllThingsIAM Hello ! The video is so informative ! I would need one on one training sessions to gain more knowledge on IAM . Kindly let me know

Oh I didn’t do that? Let me look again, if I didn’t, I can make an updated version.

More to come…promise! Thank you for watching.
