Integrating external people into collaborative business is high-cost and high-risk. Trading partners, corporate clients, vendors, and other external ecosystems all require access to critical enterprise information and services, but associated cost and risk diminish returns: manual onboarding processes, hands-on user administration, retro user experiences, security incidents and lack of visibility. In fact, 28% of CEOs abandon their top choice digital initiatives due to the cost to mitigate security risks. What follows are just some of the updates that have been rolled out with the Business Network™ CE 22.1 release.
