Episode notes
Closed Loop in Identity Governance
- Identity administration can become out of sync if shadow/backdoor administration happens in end systems.
- Maintaining a closed loop cycle ensures "what should be" and "what actually is" stay aligned.
Approvals Vary by Identity Type
- Approvals can be either physical or implied, depending on identity type and risk level.
- Employee identities typically have authoritative sources; non-employees often have less mature processes.
University Low-Risk Access Example
- Universities might allow community members to self-register for low-risk access such as library cards.
- This creates an implied approval with limited access and low associated risk.
