Environment properties
An environment is the primary subdivision of an organization.
Each organization should contain at least one environment in addition to the Administrators environment. Large global enterprises can have several environments, which can be based on region or on enterprise operations, such as staging or production.
Environments contain populations, which provide the structure to manage groups of similar users within the environment.
Environments contain the core resources on which all identity services are built and encompass:
-
Populations
-
Users
-
Applications
-
Activities
-
Branding and images
-
Password policies
-
Risk policies
