Maintaining context state data, and viewing it from different “angles” allows further refinement of the authentication ceremony including steps towards self-service provisioning and authorizations.

Governance facilitates Compliance just as Role management facilitates Entitlement. But context eases the management of both Governance and Roles. Context is key to more automated, less expensive, GRC solutions.
