Frequently asked questions

What CISOs want to know

How does identity security reduce enterprise risk?

Identity security automates the access governance of every identity—human or machine—closing security gaps and reducing the risk of over-provisioned or outdated access. It also improves visibility into who has access to what, enabling faster threat response and stronger alignment with enterprise security goals.

What role does AI play in SailPoint's platform?

AI is core to how SailPoint delivers smarter, faster identity security. Our AI capabilities analyze identity data at scale to detect abnormal behavior, suggest access, and automate decisions like provisioning and remediation. This reduces manual effort, speeds response, and strengthens cyber resilience across your entire identity program.

Can SailPoint help us prove compliance to auditors or regulators?

Yes. SailPoint enables organizations to automate access certifications, enforce policies in real time, and maintain detailed audit trails across every user—human or machine. This reduces audit prep time, improves accuracy, and supports continuous compliance with regulatory standards.

How does SailPoint fit into a Zero Trust architecture?

Identity is the foundation of Zero Trust. SailPoint enforces least-privilege access, governs every identity, and continuously monitors and adjusts access as roles or risk change. That means no access goes unchecked, helping you stay aligned with Zero Trust principles at scale.

Can SailPoint scale across our global, hybrid environment?

Absolutely. SailPoint is built to support complex IT environments—from multi-cloud and hybrid ecosystems to human and machine identities. Our open, extensible platform integrates seamlessly into your broader security ecosystem, providing identity context that enhances threat detection, response, and control across your tools and workflows.

How does SailPoint help CISOs elevate identity to a board-level priority?

We help CISOs translate identity security into business outcomes such as reducing cyber risk, strengthening compliance, and improving operational efficiency. With clear visibility, audit-ready insights, and proven ROI, SailPoint gives CISOs the data and confidence to drive executive alignment and secure long-term investment in identity.
