These release notes cover multiple versions of AM software, starting with version 5.5. They are designed to make it easier to upgrade, especially when you are skipping releases.

PingAM software manages access to resources, such as web pages, applications, or web services, that are available over a network. AM centralizes access control by handling both authentication and authorization. Authentication is the process of identifying an individual, for example, by confirming a successful login. Authorization is the process of granting access to resources to authenticated individuals.
