How a Large Organization Accelerated Deployment of New IGA System
The roll-out of the IGA Suite is anticipated to be a complex and lengthy project. Adding an identity analytics layer allows IAM teams to accelerate the project timeline and mitigate potential risks.
Previously, it took our IAM team up to 3 weeks to complete the peer review within the organisation. Since implementing the Elimity platform, the process has become just one click away, reducing the workload for the team significantly.
Challenges
- Data Clean up: Before rolling out the IGA suite, the organisation had to clean up and classify current users and their accesses (e.g., Active Directory (AD) groups). Examples of specific data questions included:
- Which groups should still exist?
- Which employees should be in which groups?
- What the owners of these groups should be?
- Which descriptions these groups should have? And many others.
- Role Definition: As part of rolling out the IGA suite, the organisation had to define a role model that specified which types of users receive which accesses. The size of the IAM team required an efficient approach.
- Limited Resources: Limited Resources: The small IAM team was burdened with numerous manual repetitive analyses that also provided limited identity data and insights.
- Multiple Stakeholders: The organisation had multiple groups of people that all wanted information on their users and their accesses. The new IGA tool was not the platform to achieve this.
