How to get started with the new Identity Security Cloud capabilities
SailPoint Privileged Task Automation helps organizations enhance IT operations accuracy, efficiency, and governance by automating and delegating the execution of repeatable privileged tasks. This capability also reduces the risk of compromise by removing the need for users to see the credentials needed to execute privileged tasks.
Identity Security Cloud: Privileged Task Automation QuickLearn series
Data segmentation gives complex organizations better record-level access controls for internal security, partner enablement, and least privilege enforcement. It ensures that sub-administrators only see those entitlements in administrative UIs that they should be allowed to see.
Dynamic Access Roles mitigates role sprawl by extending our role model to provide the ability to selectively assign access to members of a role based on the evaluation of context attribute values. This allows a single role to replace large numbers of roles by encapsulating the context information and access policies.
Streamline Governance with Access Request Administration in Identity Security Cloud
We are also thrilled to announce the launch of Access Request Administration in Identity Security Cloud. With Access Request Administration, administrators will be able to view and manage all access requests across Identity Security Cloud, to enable the timely flow of governance activities. It is a singular UI where administrators can see, approve, reassign, remind, and cancel access requests - as well as view a historical record of access requests.

Expand power of workflows with delegated interactive automation for business users
At Navigate 2024, we were excited to announce new enhancements for SaaS workflows and forms to provide an interactive user experience for automating and delegating tasks. Workflows and forms customers can now leverage the power of workflows and governance to delegate automation tasks to non-admin users.
A new interactive process allows non-admin and non-technical users to interact with custom forms and workflows to achieve business goals while ensuring proper governance is maintained through Entitlements and/or Roles ensuring the right people have the right access to the right resources at the right time.
