Los Angeles, July 9, 2024 – Saviynt, a leading provider of cloud-native identity and governance platform solutions, revealed today a strategic partnership with Ernst & Young LLP (EY) aimed at managing robust third-party identities and simplifying the administration of external staff throughout the entire identity lifecycle.
“The ability for an organization to interact with a third-party entity is crucial for many clients who rely on external workers to provide essential supplies, services, and other functions,” stated EY’s Digital Identity Leader, Sam Tang. “We are confident that the collaboration between Saviynt’s Identity Cloud technical solution and EY’s extensive experience will assist clients in meeting their identity and access management needs. It has the potential to reduce costs, simplify operations, and transform IAM into a true business enabler.”
EY’s wealth of experience in IAM consulting equips them with a profound understanding of clients’ needs and strategies in designing innovative IAM solutions. Saviynt’s technology not only addresses current challenges but also looks ahead to develop solutions that can adapt to future requirements and industry advancements with ease.
This partnership between Saviynt and EY is poised to streamline the on-boarding and management of external workforce, suppliers, and other external user relationships, enhancing user experience and risk management for implementing organizations. The key features include:
1. A delegated on-boarding workflow: External organizations can now directly manage users, reducing operational costs and administrative burden.
2. Integration with online identity proofing vendors: Saviynt’s external user management function enhances trust in external user identities and mitigates risks to organizations.
3. Control over external users and their access: Saviynt’s Identity Cloud platform seamlessly manages the on-boarding and full access lifecycle of external identities for enterprise users.
4. Incorporation of identity and organizational risk into access decisions: This bridges a significant gap in current commercial tools and enables a risk-based approach to managing external user access.
Paul Zolfaghari, President at Saviynt, noted that the industry has struggled with effective tools to manage external users and their access, resulting in suboptimal homegrown solutions. Saviynt’s solution for handling external identities aims to enhance the administration of this critical user community throughout its lifecycle significantly.
