IdentityIQ Access Request Manager

Overview

Deliver Convenient Access in a Controlled Environment
IdentityIQ Access Request Manager automates and centralizes the business processes associated with enterprise access request management. The solution creates greater transparency into not only who has access to what, but also into how they acquired specific access privileges - who requested it and who approved it.

Access Request Manager provides an intuitive, business-friendly interface that allows managers and end users to conveniently request new access or make changes to existing access privileges within the constraints of the pre-defined identity governance model. It also provides an efficient, more accurate way to view existing access and remove access as needed.

IdentityIQ Access Request Manager includes the following key capabilities:

• Self-Service Interfaces – Allow end users and business managers to request access changes to access independently using a business-friendly interface.
• Policy Evaluation – Enforces policy automatically during the request process.
• Business Process Modeling – Allows business and IT staff to collaborate on design and customization of business processes associated with access request management using a business-friendly user interface.

Capabilities

• Empower users to conveniently request new access or make changes to existing access privileges – To ensure that business managers and end users select the right access levels, IdentityIQ automatically provides the available options from which they can choose based upon an established business role and identity policy model. This makes it easy to select access that is appropriate to the user's job function avoiding errors that result in too much access or inappropriate access being granted.
• Enforce policy automatically – IdentityIQ enforces enterprise identity and access policy automatically during the request process by evaluating in real-time the validity of the request, and checking it against established policy before kicking off approval workflows or other change management processes. This helps to avoid the introduction of new policy violations. If a policy violation is identified, an escalation workflow for approving exception-based access can be initiated when necessary.
• Facilitate oversight of the process – Configurable business processes, including approval workflows, facilitate direct oversight of the access request process ensuring that new access privileges are approved before being implemented into the environment. As approvals are routed to appropriate reviewers and managers, IdentityIQ logs the requests and actions by each approver in the system. This provides a complete and auditable record of who requested access, to which systems and who approved or denied the request.

Features

• Business-Friendly User Interface – Makes it easy for non-technical users to request new access and make changes to existing access privileges with an intuitive design
