Features that enable access request delegation

Self service access request portal

Example:

Manual requests slow access delivery

Employees email IT to request access to shared folders and applications. Requests often sit in queues or get lost in long email chains, leaving users waiting days for approval and access. The manual process causes delays, errors, and inconsistent privilege assignments.

Self-service portal streamlines requests

With Netwrix Identity Management, users request access directly through a self-service portal. Requests are automatically routed to the correct manager or data owner based on preconfigured rules, eliminating guesswork and manual triage.

Policy-based workflows enforce governance

Each request follows a defined approval path, such as manager approval followed by IT or compliance review. These structured workflows ensure that every access decision aligns with least-privilege principles and organizational policies.

Automated provisioning speeds fulfillment

Once approved, the system automatically provisions the necessary permissions, group memberships, or application access. Employees receive the access they need within minutes, while IT eliminates repetitive manual tasks.

Auditable records simplify compliance

Every step, from request submission to final provisioning, is logged with timestamps and approver details. When auditors ask who approved access or when it was granted, IT can produce clear, audit-ready reports instantly.

Result

With Netwrix Identity Management, organizations simplify access delivery through self-service and policy-driven workflows. Automation reduces IT workload, eliminates delays, and ensures every access decision is transparent, governed, and compliant.
