# SCIM

## **SCIM2**

#### **Description**

Over the last decade, despite the negatives, the world is moving towards cloud-based operational environments. Albeit the process of conversion from on-premise to cloud is rather slow, any such motive needs to be done carefully. Identity provisioning is an important aspect to consider because data security breaches can cause serious harm. [System for Cross-domain Identity Management](https://www.simplecloud.info/) (SCIM) comes into play as an emerging open standard for making identity provisioning in cloud-based applications and services easier, cheaper, and faster. WSO2 Identity Server supports SCIM 1.1 and SCIM 2.0 for identity provisioning.
