8 Identity Security Project Hazards to avoid 1.) Thinking of adding complex process during account aggregation. 2.)Thinking of adding complex processing in a certification only project. 3.) Considering building a lot of custom code for requirements that doesn't seem to fit the functionality available in the platform. 4.) The project is about to start User Acceptance Test but the business owners have not yet validated the correctness of the identity and access data in the system. 5.) Considering the use of unsupported interfaces. 6.) Considering using hardware and software that doesn't meet basic requirements. 7.) Considering testing provisioning only on the product version of an application. 8.) Considering assigning hundreds of accounts to one identity.

User provisioning and deprovisioning form an important lifecycle in identity management, as overprivileged and orphaned user identities pose risks. 👤⚠️ Set and terminate accounts as precisely as possible -- and only for as long as necessary. 📰 Read more: https://bit.ly/3OeWxwa By Dave Shackleford #IdentityManagement #AccountManagement #AccountProvisioning

🔐 More efficiency, less risk: Axiomatics and SailPoint🔐 A siloed, manual approach to #AccessControl is not just inefficient - it creates more and unnecessary risk. That's a key reason we integrate with SailPoint. Combining the power of SailPoint IdentityIQ's AI-driven identity management with policy-driven authorization, you're designing security into the very fabric of your enterprise and getting more out of your existing #IGA investment. Why add policy-driven authorization to your SailPoint deployment? Well... ✅ Transparent and Scalable - Employ an iterative approach that scales as your requirement evolves that is clearly understood by all stakeholders. Ensure security policies are consistently enforced across the enterprise, no matter the scale. ✅ Modernize Access Control - Move beyond traditional Role Based Access Control (#RBAC) and adopt a system that considers a variety of attributes for access and authorization, ensuring real-time, contextual decisions that keep pace with your business needs. ✅ Zero Trust at the Core - By leveraging signals from identity sources to build dynamic Zero Trust access policies, you're not just verifying roles; you're continuously validating access as part of a real-time authorization decision.

How SailPoint Empowers Businesses to Achieve More 🚀 I want to share with you how SailPoint is not just an IAM tool—it’s a catalyst for transformation in organizations across industries. Here are two inspiring examples: Case Study 1: Simplifying Compliance in Healthcare A large healthcare organization struggled with managing access for thousands of employees while maintaining compliance. With SailPoint IdentityNow: ⏳ Provisioning time was cut in half through automation. 🛡️ Regulatory compliance (HIPAA) was streamlined with continuous access certifications. ✅ Patients’ sensitive data was protected, building trust and confidence. Case Study 2: Boosting Efficiency in Finance A global financial firm was stuck with manual access management processes, risking operational delays and breaches. By implementing SailPoint IdentityIQ: 🕒 The onboarding process was reduced from days to hours. 🔐 Security risks were minimized with role-based access controls (RBAC). 🚀 Productivity soared as employees accessed the tools they needed instantly. These cases highlight why IAM is more than a security solution—it’s a strategic advantage. SailPoint doesn’t just manage identities; it empowers businesses to grow securely, innovate faster, and protect what matters most. 💡 How has your organization benefited from IAM or SailPoint solutions? I’d love to hear your thoughts or experiences! #SailPoint #IdentityAndAccessManagement #IAM #SuccessStories #BusinessTransformation

Exploring the Essentials of Identity Access Management Software

It was great catching up at our annual event in Spain talking about identity management for contractors and third parties. The Challenge Many organisations struggle with onboarding contractors quickly and securely. Manual processes lead to delays, inefficiencies, and even security risks. Key Stats • Contractors make up over 40% of the workforce in some industries, but only 36% of companies have strong identity management in place. • Onboarding a third party takes 3-5 days on average. • 63% of data breaches involve third-party access, highlighting the need for better control. • Automating identity management can cut onboarding time by 75%. Sailpoint has been helping organisations to tackle this problem through a dedicated solution.
