As judicial systems worldwide embrace digital transformation, the need to integrate advanced technologies into court operations has become more urgent than ever. This shift has revolutionized case management, stakeholder communication, and record-keeping, significantly enhancing the efficiency, transparency, and accessibility of judicial processes. However, with these advancements comes the critical need to protect sensitive data, such as personal details, case evidence, and legal documents, from unauthorized access and cyber threats. This white paper explores the pivotal role of Identity and Access Management (IAM) in securing court IT systems [1]. IAM, as a gatekeeper, not only plays a crucial role in protecting sensitive data but also provides a sense of reassurance about the security of court IT systems. It ensures that only authorized individuals interact with the data and provides a comprehensive audit trail to mitigate insider threats. By offering precise, role-based access control and monitoring user activity, IAM solutions help courts protect confidential information, uphold the integrity of judicial processes, and maintain public trust.
