User Access Reviews is way for organizations to maintain, uphold IT controls and comply with regulations such as SOX, FFIEC, ISO 27001, PCI- DSS, HIPAA etc.

CHALLENGE: A publicly held cloud communication provider of residential telecommunication services has significantly grown its IT landscape through multiple acquisitions over the years. It had implemented Okta for access Management. However, the Audit department continued to manually conduct quarterly access reviews to satisfy SOX standards.
A large part of review was focused on validating User Access Control, including credentials and entitlements across Okta enabled and legacy telecommunication applications.

SOLUTION: Facing rigorous requirements for compliance and risk management, Telco Company approached SecurEnds for its product that could be added on top of Okta to automate Access Certification process. A tailored demo followed by a five-day proof of concept (POC) established SecurEnds as the solution of choice. POC participants found the Okta-SecurEnds workflow easy to configure, add additional custom applications through Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and that needed to be reviewed, set up onetime or periodic access certification campaigns. Using SecurEnds Cloud Ready, AI Enabled, Lightweight Identity Governance product, customer was able to fill the “governance gap” in Okta’s offering.
