Business Friendly, Streamlined Provisioning
Courion’s Access Request Manager is a business-friendly, streamlined access request interface designed to give authorized individuals a clear view of the access rights relevant to their staff. Regardless of an organization’s provisioning solution, Access Request Manager provides an effective approval system that ensures users receive only the appropriate access they need to perform their jobs.
With a rich graphical interface, authorized users are guided through the access request process, allowing them to define access for users in their organizations. Requesting access and viewing access, as well as viewing outstanding requests for access, is straightforward and fast.
Simplified Access Request, Increased Security and an Audit Trail
When an authorized individual logs on to Access Request Manager, he or she will see a personalized page with their current access requests and status. This streamlines the access request process for line of business managers and IT, while providing an audit trail of access requests and activity.
Unlike some of the cumbersome, time-consuming and complex methods currently used for provisioning, Courion’s Access Request Manager offers a self-service shopping cart approach to provisioning, providing users with a familiar experience when requesting access — while increasing overall security and automatically creating an audit trail.
Access Request Manager:
- Includes an access catalog to allow easy browsing of available access choices
- Provides the ability to filter and sort the access catalog based on numerous criteria
- Offers a streamlined review of your access requests before submitting
Efficient Line Item Veto Capability
Access Request Manager expands upon the dynamic approval mechanisms in Courion's Provisioning Manager by offering line item veto capabilities during the dynamic approval process – giving authorized users the ability to approve some parts of a request while denying others, allowing the approved portions of the request to continue without having the requestor resubmit.
Effectively Perform User Access Requests
Access Request Manager enables an authorized individual to effectively perform user access requests as needed.
Access requests are accompanied by compensating controls, such as email notifications to all of the parties involved including the end user, application owner, request approver and IT administrator, or help desk tickets as defined by company policy.
Comprehensive Inventory of Access Choices
An integral part of Access Request Manager is the Access Catalog, which shows the entire inventory of the access choices available to your organization. The Access Catalog provides authorized users with a simple way to browse through the access rights assigned to individual users in an organization with the added convenience of being able to sort by a number of categories including role, person, category and application.
Delegation of Access Approval and Access Request Authority
Managers no longer need to worry about how access requests and approvals will be accomplished while they’re on vacation or on extended leaves. Access Request Manager provides the capability for managers to easily delegate access approval and access request authority to direct reports while managers are away. In the case of a security breach or an emergency termination scenario where time is of the essence, Access Request Manager offers a simplified user interface to immediately disable access to associated accounts.
Streamlined Operations, Enhanced Security and Improved Productivity
Access Request Manager delivers streamlined operations, enhanced security and improved productivity managing user accounts and associated resources. Access Request Manager offers: presentation flexibility, allowing individual users to decide upon the information to be displayed and how it is displayed; a granular view and selection of access; a simple, easy-to-understand orphan account interface; and enhanced management of approval cycles — all in a rich, business-friendly, graphical interface.
