Access management is defined twice in the terminology md file #128

In the terminology file, there are 2 definitions for access management. We should merge them or reject one of them. I suggest we keep the longer one:

The process and techniques used to control access to resources. This capability works together with identity management and the Relying Party to achieve this goal. The model shows access management as a conceptual grouping consisting of the Access Governance function and the shared authorization component. However, access management impacts local authorization as well (through the governance function).

That's actually an issue with the articles those terms are copied from. WE're allowing multiple definitions and including the articles where they come from to make sure the context in which those definitions exist are clear.

Let's get the authors in a discussion on IDPro's slack to see if we can resolve that conflict.

Okay that is good to know. I was actually looking for the definition of IAM and it doesn't seem like we have one. We define identity management on the one hand and access management on the other but not IAM as a whole
