Strengthen compliance and security with Netwrix Identity Management
Why Netwrix for access certification?
Netwrix Identity Management makes access certification campaigns easy and auditable, helping organizations reduce excessive permissions, remediate stale access, and maintain compliance with regulatory requirements.
Reduce security risks
Identify and remediate excessive or outdated permissions before they can be exploited by insiders or attackers.
Ensure audit readiness
Simplify proving compliance with frameworks like SOX, HIPAA, and GDPR by running auditable, trackable certification campaigns.
Automate review workflows
Enable managers and business owners to review and approve access rights through automated workflows, reducing IT burden.
Maintain least privilege
Regular reviews keep entitlements aligned with job responsibilities, enforcing least privilege across the organization.
Features that simplify access certification
Example:
Outdated permissions raise audit concerns
An internal audit reveals that several employees still have access to legacy financial applications they no longer use. The excessive permissions violate least-privilege policy and could trigger a SOX compliance issue.
Organization-wide certification campaign launched
With Netwrix Identity Management, IT initiates a certification campaign covering all users and systems. Managers receive automated review tasks showing each employee’s current access across directories, applications, and data repositories.
Business owners validate and approve access
Department heads review entitlements and either approve or revoke access directly from their review interface. Automated reminders ensure timely completion, while IT tracks overall progress and exceptions through a central dashboard.
Automated remediation removes stale access
When the campaign closes, revoked or unused permissions are automatically deprovisioned. Access is realigned to each user’s current responsibilities, eliminating privilege creep and ensuring compliance with corporate policy.
Audit-ready evidence delivered instantly
When auditors request proof, IT exports detailed reports showing who reviewed access, what decisions were made, and when remediation occurred. Compliance evidence that once required manual tracking is now available in minutes.
Result
With Netwrix Identity Management, organizations automate access certification to maintain least-privilege access and continuous audit readiness. Review campaigns, delegated approvals, and automated cleanup reduce risk, simplify compliance, and strengthen governance.
