Use Case

What are the benefits of actually using it?

Let's consider a case where we want to set a regular schedule and take inventory for each resource. As shown in the figure below, if you set the inventory to be performed at a high frequency (once a quarter) for highly confidential resources, the risk of unauthorized access will be reduced, and the licenses of unnecessary accounts will be stripped, You can optimize your costs.

Inventory functions like Access Certifications are also subsumed in a product called IGA.
Compared to IGA products, Okta has an authentication function, so it can be said that it is superior in that it can check the access date and time for each resource and take inventory.
As an administrator, you can check the last access date and time and decide whether or not to revoke access rights, so you can make an appropriate decision.

At the end

This time, I explained the Access Certifications function.
Okta has expanded its functions not only in the IAM area, but also in the IGA area, and plans to continue to expand attractive functions in the future. If you are interested in Okta, please contact us.
Next time, we plan to write an article about setting up the Access Certifications feature, so please look forward to it!
