Governance
Identity Governance
Access requests, approvals, certifications and the joiner, mover and leaver process, designed so that who has access to what has a ready answer.
How it works
A joiner, provisioned by policy
The problem
- Access is granted quickly and removed slowly, so it accumulates.
- Certification campaigns ask managers to approve lists they cannot interpret.
- An auditor asks who can reach a system, and answering takes weeks.
What we do
Identity governance decides who should have access; authentication only checks who someone is. Governance is the half an audit asks about, and the half that decays fastest when nobody owns it.
Most of the work is not about the tool but about the decisions it records: who may approve what, and when access should end. Our explainer below sets out the concepts in plain language, without a vendor's vocabulary.
What you get
- A role and entitlement model built from the access people actually have.
- Joiner, mover and leaver processes driven by the HR system of record.
- Access reviews scoped so that a reviewer can make a real decision.
- Reports that answer an auditor's question from the system rather than from a spreadsheet.
How it is usually shaped
Usually follows a workforce identity program, once authentication is in place.
