THE CHALLENGE

## Access Is Growing.   
 Patience Is Shrinking.

### Visibility Gaps & Audit Pressure

As apps and permissions multiply, it’s hard to know who has access to what and why, until it’s audit season.

### Manual Reviews, Missed Risks

Traditional certification campaigns rely on manual decisions and stale data, which leads to review fatigue, rubber-stamping, and toxic access.

### Hybrid Reality

Your environment spans SaaS, cloud, on-prem, partners, and contractors. All need consistent governance. None want a rebuild.

THE SOLUTION

## Governance That Actually Keeps Up

With cloud-native identity governance that automates access requests, reviews, and enforcement, you spend less time chasing spreadsheets and more time controlling risk. AI-assisted decisioning speeds up low-risk approvals, and high-risk access gets routed to the right review path. Policies continuously enforce least privilege and segregation of duties, not just during annual audits.

## Why You’ll Love Our Identity Governance

Stronger control. Faster decisions. Less manual administration.

### Prevent Unauthorized Access

Continuously evaluate permissions, automate low‑risk decisions, and flag anomalies for human review.

### Reduce Operational Costs

Simplify app onboarding, streamline access requests, and make your audit campaign more efficient.

### Boost Workforce Productivity

Give employees day-one access and a simple shopping-cart experience to request what they need.

### Access Requests

Give users a shopper‑style request flow, auto‑approve low‑risk requests, route high‑risk access through defined approval chains, and automatically provision when approved.

### Access Reviews & Certifications

Use pre‑built templates, targeted micro‑certifications and AI‑assisted recommendations to make faster decisions and reduce reviewer fatigue.

### Segregation of Duties (SoD)

Define SoD policies once and enforce them during requests. Run scheduled evaluations to find toxic access and conflicts of interest.

### Lifecycle Signals & Provisioning

Automate changes to permissions as users join, move, and leave so access stays in sync with each user’s role as your organization evolves.

### Reporting & Audit Evidence

Stay prepared for compliance checks by maintaining a clear record of who requested, approved, and used access.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What is identity governance (IGA)?

Identity governance is how organizations control and prove which users have what type of access to which applications through requests, approvals, certifications. Established policies like segregation of duties (SoD) ensure that access levels are least‑privileged and compliant.

### How do AI‑assisted recommendations help reviewers?

They analyze usage and peer patterns to surface likely keep/remove decisions and highlight potential risks.

### What are micro‑certifications?

Much faster and less comprehensive than full campaigns, micro-certifications are targeted, ad‑hoc reviews that focus on specific apps, teams or high‑risk entitlements.

### Can low‑risk access be auto‑approved?

Yes. You can define policies that auto‑approve low‑risk items and route higher‑risk requests to additional reviewers in the approval chain before provisioning.
