Identity Governance
Cloud-native governance that delivers enterprise-grade security and compliance with powerful AI and machine learning.
What is Identity Governance?
Identity governance — also known as identity governance and administration (IGA) — allows organizations to see what users have access to which resources in order to prevent inappropriate access and comply with a complex web of regulations that vary by region.

Ping Identity Governance Capabilities
Access Request
Access Request elevates productivity by enabling users to make requests with a shopping cart-like experience. Low-risk requests can be automatically approved and provisioned without human review and fulfillment. High-risk entitlement requests can undergo one or more levels of approvals adding layers of security and improving compliance. All workflows and access policies can be centrally defined and configured using an intuitive cloud-based service. Access requests become streamlined by optimizing the user experience, reducing the need for help desk calls, and minimizing costs.
Access Review
Ensuring user access complies with regulations, business policies, and standards is time-consuming and expensive. Ping enables organizations to streamline access reviews and enforce least privilege by utilizing pre-built templates, ad hoc micro-certifications, and AI-assisted decisioning. Templates provide a standardized framework and industry best practices, while micro-certifications allow for targeted and flexible reviews. AI-assisted decision-making leverages advanced data analytics to provide recommendations for reviewers, helping them make informed decisions.
Segregation of Duties
Prevent toxic combinations of roles or entitlements through enforced checks. Ping enables centrally defined SOD policies to be evaluated during the access request process, helping prevent improper access grants or violations. Combined with the ability to schedule policy evaluations, organizations can proactively scan all identity data as a detective control to find rogue accounts or inappropriate user access. By automating policy enforcement, enterprises can reduce security access risks and maintain organization-wide regulatory compliance.
How do Legacy and Modern Governance Differ?
Today's remote workforce conducts more business over the internet than ever before, resulting in an explosion of identity data. Traditional identity governance that relies on manual processes simply wasn’t designed to manage ever-changing roles and entitlements that are a reality today.
Using AI and machine learning, modern identity governance automates multiple processes, such as account and entitlement provisioning and access requests. It can correlate and analyze massive amounts of data and spot anomalous or suspicious behavior.
