SailPoint IdentityNow is an identity governance platform that centralizes user identity and access management through a unified dashboard. It automates user lifecycle processes, including provisioning, role changes, and deprovisioning, by synchronizing with connected systems to grant or revoke access based on defined policies. The platform provides a self-service portal for users to request access via a catalog, which routes requests through configurable approval workflows, and also enables self-service password resets. To maintain compliance and security, IdentityNow facilitates periodic access certification campaigns, enforces separation of duties (SoD) policies, detects policy violations, and generates audit reports. It supports role-based access control by allowing the creation and management of roles, which bundle entitlements, and uses analytics to identify potential roles and detect risky access patterns.
