Identity governance for a global security firm
SailPoint Identity Security Cloud securing user access and automating identity management for a global cybersecurity organisation.
The brief
For a global cybersecurity organisation, identity is part of the security posture itself. They needed to secure user access and automate identity management — closing the gap between who should have access and who actually does.
Our consultants supported identity governance initiatives on SailPoint Identity Security Cloud, hardening access request, certification and provisioning so access stayed least-privilege and auditable.
- Implement governed access request and approval.
- Run certification campaigns to keep access right.
- Integrate applications into the governance platform.
- Automate provisioning and de-provisioning.
- Support governance and compliance objectives.
- Resolve production issues quickly and reliably.
Our approach
We implemented governed access request and approval, ran certification campaigns, and automated provisioning through ISC — integrating applications via REST and a Web Services connector, with PowerShell where directory automation was needed.
Production issue resolution and governance support kept the environment stable and compliant as it evolved.
What we delivered
Access request implementation
Governed request-and-approval so access is intentional and tracked.
Certification campaign management
Regular reviews keep entitlements least-privilege.
Application integrations
Applications connected into ISC for unified governance.
Provisioning automation
Access granted and revoked automatically and consistently.
Governance & compliance support
Controls aligned to security and compliance objectives.
Production issue resolution
Fast, reliable resolution of operational issues.
How we built it
We integrated applications through REST and a Web Services connector, with PowerShell for directory automation, then implemented access request, approval and certification flows on ISC.
Provisioning automation was hardened and supported in production, with governance and compliance reviews keeping access least-privilege over time.
How it works
Request
Access is requested through governed approval.
Integrate
Applications are connected into ISC.
Provision
Access is granted and revoked automatically.
Certify
Campaigns review and attest entitlements.
Support
Production issues are resolved fast.
For a security firm, governed access request plus regular certification is the mechanism that keeps access least-privilege — the gap between intended and actual access stays small, which directly reduces risk.
Automated provisioning and reliable production support mean governance holds up under real-world change rather than decaying after go-live.
The impact
Access governance improved measurably.
Security risk was reduced through least-privilege access.
Compliance posture was strengthened.
Access management ran automatically and reliably.
