As the number of corporate IT systems and users grows access rights provisioning and control become explicitly complex. Extended time required for processing basic operations such as requesting, approving, configuring, and revoking access rights to a given system hinders business operations and frustrates the users, bringing the productivity down. The answer to this challenge is deploying a comprehensive access governance solution integrated with company IT systems, enabling security administrators to efficiently manage user identities and access across the enterprise. Implementing Identity governance also improves their visibility into identities and access privileges and helps them implement the necessary controls to prevent inappropriate or risky access.

Business outcomes

Every company that has successfully deployed an identity management solution:

  • Diminishes the processing time from days or even weeks to hours at most
  • Streamlines all stages of the privileges’ lifecycle
  • Facilitates granular privilege management, ensuring security and transparency

These outcomes allow companies to cut the expenses and costs related to inefficient internal operations and gain competitive advantage due to increased margins and productivity without compromising security.

Key elements

Identity governance and administration framework includes several key elements:

Identity lifecycle
By establishing roles, norms, and policies, grant access rights. Deliver standardized onboarding and offboarding procedures for staff members and independent contractors. Easily and swiftly manage resource access as a user's duties change in accordance with the company's growth.
Access certification
Streamline the processes involved in identity governance and administration, such as managing user identities, restricting rights, and setting up security throughout the entire company. Access to user applications, unstructured data, and privileged accounts are all included in these capabilities. All of this may be accomplished by giving authorized business users authority over user management and access control.
Privileged account governance
Using unified rules, automated and business-driven attestation, enterprise provisioning, and access request and fulfillment, you can extend governance to privileged accounts and administrator access. With clearly defined roles and related policies, protocols for access approval, and periodic attestation of privileged access, privileged governance can be made simpler.
Access request
Using specified approval processes and workflows, allow users to request access to network resources, physical assets, groups, and distribution lists and regulate access rights and permissions for their full identity lifecycle.
Auditing
Deliver reports that are audit-ready to satisfy ongoing compliance obligations. Provide auditors with thorough, real-time reports that identify the resources in your environment, who has access to them, when and why that access was provided, and when it was terminated. These reports should also include identity governance and administration data.
Identity governance for SaaS applications
Extend identity governance and administration advantages of unified policy, automated and business-driven attestation, enterprise provisioning, and access request and fulfillment to privileged accounts and administrator access to your SaaS applications.
