Digital transformation offers numerous advantages, such as promoting digital sovereignty, which enables independent and secure operation in the digital world. As organizations become more digitized, the dependency on individual manufacturers and products increases, highlighting the importance of Identity Management and Access Management (IAM). IAM is crucial for enabling individuals and institutions to independently, autonomously, and securely fulfill their roles in the digital world. By gradually implementing digital transformation measures in public administration, you can achieve the following objectives.

Frequently Asked Questions: Software for Public Administration
Which Aspects Are Particularly Important When It Comes to Software for Public Administration?
When implementing software solutions in public administration, several aspects play a decisive role in meeting the requirements of digital transformation.
One central point is data sovereignty. This ensures that the integrity and trust of citizens is maintained. At a time where data is a valuable asset, it is essential that public institutions can ensure control and security over this data.
In addition to data sovereignty, the quality of the IT infrastructure is also of great importance. Efficient and flexible systems make it possible to meet the constantly changing requirements of employees. This can be achieved by integrating modern identity and access management solutions. They ensure that user data is managed securely and access rights are clearly defined. A central IAM system facilitates administration by efficiently organizing identities, roles and user groups even across complex infrastructures.
Another crucial aspect is the public administration’s ability to act. This is promoted by the use of open interfaces that enable standardization and thus strengthen the flexibility and future-proofing of IT systems. Such interfaces guarantee compatibility with other services and applications, which increases the efficiency and interoperability of the systems in the long term.
Why Is the Use of Open Source Software Positive for Public Administration?
The use of open source technologies plays an important role in public administration, as it not only offers cost benefits, but also improves transparency and adaptability. Platforms such as our Univention Corporate Server (UCS), which consist entirely of open source software, enable easy scaling in environments with numerous users. They also offer the option of being operated both in your own data center and in the cloud, which gives institutions more flexibility for implementation. Open source software therefore helps to ensure that citizens can be offered a secure, efficient and future-proof service in which the digital transformation is successfully implemented and citizens’ trust in the digital services of the public sector is secured in the long term.
