The cost of periodic audits of user access is becoming a big drain on scarce company resources. As organizations remain focused on minimizing costs, the quality and coverage of these audits have been impacted as audit teams try to manage the same – or in some cases – additional workload with smaller teams. Unfortunately, without automated and sustainable processes and tools in place, organizations will continue to struggle to cost-effectively manage risk. In this live webinar, audit and identity management professionals from PricewaterhouseCoopers and SailPoint, will introduce a proven approach that reduces assessment costs using a set of tools and accelerators to more effectively and efficiently identify gaps in identity governance and compliance. And, you'll learn how to improve audit performance and drive sustainable, compliant processes for managing user access.

With no repeatable process in place, the overall certification process becomes inconsistent, unreliable and difficult to manage. In this webinar, identity management professionals from PricewaterhouseCoopers and SailPoint will offer lessons learned from real-world deployments and show you how you can quickly improve the operational efficiency and accuracy of your certification process.
