Use cases
Event-based architecture delivers real-time responses to user lifecycle events, ensuring immediate enforcement of centralized policies and reinforcing identity authority across systems.
-
Leverage robust lifecycle management capabilities to more easily administrate user identities throughout their entire lifecycle.
-
Ease user permission management with predefined approval workflows. Users can easily request access to resources and managers can quickly review and approve or deny these requests.

Ensure that users receive appropriate access based on their job functions by grouping permissions into roles. Reduce the complexity of permissions administration and minimize the risk of privilege creep.
-
Create and enforce complex policies that govern user access based on various criteria, such as roles, departments, and security levels. This mitigates risks associated with unauthorized access and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements.
-
Establish a unified view of user identities, access rights, and compliance status. Allow administrators to efficiently monitor and manage user accounts, access requests, and policy compliance from a single interface.
-
Choose a solution you can continue to rely on as your identity management requirements grow and change—without compromising performance—thanks to scalable architecture.
