Activity Monitoring

Overview

Monitor High-Risk Users and Improve Security
IdentityIQ Compliance Manager collects, filters and correlates activity data to individual identities to provide rich insights into what users do with the access they've been granted. To simplify the detection of inappropriate user activities, Compliance Manager enables organizations to define policies and proactively scan, detect and alert on user activity violations.

To improve identity governance, activity monitoring can be used as a compensating control for high-risk users. Compliance Manager makes it easy for managers to identify high-risk users by manager, department, or location. Once identified, managers can lower risk scores by activating activity monitoring for select users as a mitigating control.
