What is the purpose of the 'Access Certification' feature in Saviynt?

The 'Access Certification' feature in Saviynt is specifically designed to review and validate user access rights periodically. This process is crucial for ensuring compliance and security within an organization. Regular access certifications help in identifying any unauthorized access or permissions that may have been assigned inadvertently or are no longer necessary due to role changes or employee departures.

Through this feature, administrators can conduct periodic reviews of user access to various applications and resources, allowing them to confirm that users still require the access they have been granted. This not only helps in managing risk and safeguarding sensitive information, but it also aligns with best practices and regulatory requirements regarding data access and security.

This functionality directly addresses the need for ongoing oversight of access permissions, which is vital in complex environments where user roles and access can change frequently.
