Introduction of AIC

In an era of increasing security threats and compliance pressure, managing identities goes beyond provisioning. Organizations need meaningful insights into access behavior and risks. Enter the Access Intelligence Center (AIC) SailPoint IdentityNow’s powerful analytics module designed to bring clarity to your identity data.

What is the Access Intelligence Center?

AIC delivers real-time, visual insights into identity and access activity across your organization. It enables security, compliance, and IAM teams to make informed decisions by answering vital questions like:

• Who has access?

• Is that access appropriate?

• Where do risks exist?

• What changes are happening?

Core Capabilities of AI

1. Pre-Built Dashboards: AIC comes with a set of rich, interactive dashboards that present information visually—making it easier for IT and security teams to interpret identity data.     

2. Risk & Policy Violation Insights: View identity and access-related risks, SOD violations, and policy exceptions in real-time, helping you prioritize remediation actions.     

3. Activity Monitoring: Track user activity and access changes over time. Identify abnormal behaviors that might indicate insider threats or compromised accounts.     

4. Access Review Optimization: Leverage insights from AIC to streamline certification campaigns by focusing on high-risk or anomalous access rather than reviewing every entitlement.

5. Custom Reporting and Filters: Filter, slice, and export data for auditing or compliance purposes. AIC supports custom views tailored to specific roles or compliance needs.
