Description: Qualitative assessment in identity and access management refers to an approach that relies on subjective judgment to analyze and evaluate aspects related to security and access control to systems and data. Unlike quantitative assessments, which focus on metrics and numerical data, qualitative assessment emphasizes a deep understanding of processes, user experiences, and human interactions. This type of evaluation allows for the identification of vulnerabilities, risks, and opportunities for improvement in identity and access management, considering factors such as organizational culture, user perceptions of security, and the effectiveness of implemented policies. Qualitative assessment is particularly relevant in environments where decisions cannot be fully quantified, such as in the implementation of new technologies or in adapting security policies to the specific needs of various organizations. By integrating the qualitative perspective, organizations can develop more effective and tailored strategies for managing identities and access, thereby ensuring greater protection of their digital assets and a better user experience.
