Automate and optimize identity workflows

Move at the speed of your business

Free your IT team from manual burdens with adaptive identity security and automated workflows that evolve and scale with your organization.

Challenge & solution

Break free from manual identity processes

Your organization is dynamic, but your identity processes might be stuck in the past. Relying on manual workflows for onboarding, offboarding, and access changes creates friction, slows productivity, and introduces human error that leaves you vulnerable.

Intelligent automation that adapts with you

  • Accelerate productivity: Deliver Day 1 access for new hires automatically, so they can hit the ground running.

  • Adapt to change: Automatically modify access based on role changes, project moves, or new security signals.

  • Secure offboarding: Instantly revoke access when an employee or contractor leaves to close security gaps immediately.

  • Reduce IT burden: Offload low-risk, repetitive tasks to AI, freeing your team to focus on strategic innovation.

  • Eliminate error: Replace spreadsheet-based processes with precise, policy-driven automated workflows.

Answers to questions about identity automation

What makes "adaptive" identity workflows different from standard automation?

Standard automation follows more rigid, linear rules. Adaptive identity workflows use AI and machine learning to analyze context, risk, and user behavior. This allows the system to make intelligent decisions in real-time, such as automatically approving low-risk requests while flagging high-risk anomalies for review, without needing constant manual intervention and rule updates.

What SailPoint solutions help in this area?

SailPoint offers a range of solutions designed to streamline and automate identity processes across your organization. With SailPoint Identity Security Cloud, you can automate provisioning, deprovisioning, and access certifications for every identity. Lifecycle Management handles onboarding, offboarding, and changes throughout the user journey. SaaS Workflows let you easily build and adapt automated tasks, while our deep integration library connects with hundreds of applications—ensuring secure, seamless, and efficient access at any scale.

How does SailPoint handle onboarding for different user types?

SailPoint provides flexible, policy-based workflows that can distinguish between full-time employees, contractors, partners, and temporary workers. You can define specific access rights for each role, ensuring every user gets exactly what they need—and nothing they don't—automatically.

Will automation replace our IT administrators?

No, it empowers them. Automation removes the burden of repetitive, manual "click-work" like basic provisioning and password resets. This frees your IT administrators to focus on complex security challenges, architecture, and strategic initiatives that drive business value.

Can automated offboarding really secure our environment instantly?

Yes. When a termination status is detected in your HR system, SailPoint can trigger an immediate, automated de-provisioning workflow. This locks accounts and revokes access across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid applications simultaneously, eliminating the "latency window" where former employees typically retain access.

Do your solutions integrate with our existing HR and IT service management tools?

Absolutely. SailPoint integrates seamlessly with major HR systems (like Workday, SAP, SuccessFactors) and ITSM platforms (like ServiceNow). This connectivity ensures that identity data flows automatically between your systems of record and your applications, creating a unified, secure, and efficient ecosystem.
