RSA Governance & Lifecycle

RSA Governance & Lifecycle delivers unparalleled identity security, access  management, and compliance capabilities. Whether your organization prefers the control of an on-premises deployment or the flexibility of a cloud-based approach, RSA Governance & Lifecycle and RSA Governance & Lifecycle Cloud both provide the same comprehensive set of features and capabilities, ensuring consistent and seamless identity governance and administration (IGA) across your entire enterprise.

Part of the RSA Unified Identity Platform, which integrates authentication, access, governance, lifecycle, and automated identity intelligence, RSA Governance & Lifecycle offers a powerful framework for managing identities, securing access, and maintaining compliance in today’s complex digital environment. Built with a security-first approach, the solution provides advanced dashboards, a sophisticated risk engine, and automated workflows to address the evolving challenges of identity management.

With RSA Governance & Lifecycle, you gain:

• Unified identity intelligence: Leverage the power of the RSA Unified Identity Platform to gain deep visibility and control over identities, ensuring that access decisions are informed by real-time analytics and comprehensive risk assessments.
• Consistency across deployment models: Whether on-premises or in the cloud, enjoy the same full-featured identity governance and administration (IGA) capabilities, allowing for flexibility without compromise. And if your organization migrates from on-premises to the cloud, RSA Governance & Lifecycle won’t require re-implementation, offering organizations flexibility and consistency that other IGA solutions can’t provide.
• Enhanced security and compliance: Employ a risk-based approach to access governance, ensuring that every access decision aligns with your organization’s stringent security and regulatory requirements.
• Operational efficiency and automation: Automate critical identity management processes—such as access provisioning, lifecycle management, and policy enforcement—to free up internal resources to focus on strategic initiatives that drive business value.
  Proactive decision-making with actionable insights: Benefit from real-time dashboards and advanced analytics that provide actionable insights into identity-related risks, enabling your organization to stay ahead of emerging threats and compliance challenges. RSA provides the full visibility you need to uncover access anomalies and policy violations, combining those insights with advanced analytics to prioritize problem areas for action.

Comprehensive identity governance

RSA Governance & Lifecycle delivers a comprehensive and technically robust identity governance solution that helps organizations effectively manage identity data, enforce policies, and maintain compliance. With advanced analytics, automated workflows, and extensive integration capabilities, RSA Governance & Lifecycle is engineered to meet the complex demands of modern identity governance, ensuring security and operational efficiency across your enterprise.

Automated identity lifecycle management

Streamline the process of provisioning and deprovisioning with bulk identity imports and automated approval processes based on SoD violations. Automated access discovery and provisioning of birth rights ensure that users have the appropriate access throughout their lifecycle.

Governance analytics and insights

• Advanced dashboards: The advanced dashboards in RSA Governance & Lifecycle are tailored for security and compliance monitoring, offering real-time visibility into identity governance processes. These dashboards come with out-of-the-box (OOTB) options and can also be customized and created to meet specific needs. Additionally, they track critical metrics, such as policy enforcement effectiveness, orphan account identification, and access request turnaround times. Integrated with the solution’s risk engine, the dashboards prioritize risks based on potential impact, enabling organization to focus resources on the most pressing security threats.
•  Gamification: To enhance user engagement during access reviews, gamification features like progress indicators and leaderboards are included, encouraging timely completion and adherence to security policies. Additionally, customizable reports can be generated directly from the dashboards, streamlining the compliance audit process.

Audit and reporting tools

• Extensive integration options: Supports configurable integrations with tools like ServiceNow, Cherwell, BMC Helix ITSM, TOPdesk, and Jira through a set of web service APIs. Additionally, a wide range of connectors is available for both on-premises systems and SaaS/web-based applications, with an open web services connector framework for custom integrations.
• Reviews and certifications: Conduct comprehensive reviews across group, role, account access and ownership, data resource access, and data resource ownership. These reviews ensure that users, groups, roles, and data resources are consistently aligned with business needs and compliance requirements. To drive higher engagement and ensure timely completion, RSA Governance & Lifecycle incorporates innovative gamification elements—such as progress bars, reward points, and leaderboards—transforming the certification and review process into a more interactive and motivating experience.
• Policy enforcement: Enforce various access policies, such as ensuring that users do not accumulate conflicting roles or permissions. For example, SoD policies can be automatically enforced to prevent any single user from both approving and processing financial transactions, thereby reducing the risk of fraud.
• Comprehensive audit trails and reports: Track every change to user access rights with detailed audit trails that capture who made the change, when it was made, and what was modified. Customizable reports can be tailored to meet specific regulatory requirements, making it easier to demonstrate compliance during audits and provide stakeholders with timely, actionable insights.
