The new AI-powered onboarding capability automates access and reduces risk, a critical step towards securing the modern enterprise and ensuring true unified identity security.

SailPoint Technologies, a leader in unified identity security for enterprises, launches innovative AI-powered application onboarding capability. This new capability will be seamlessly integrated into SailPoint Identity Security Cloud and will simplify the process of integrating critical business applications. By automating the onboarding process, SailPoint will simultaneously be delivering faster time to value, critical security of business applications and improving the user experience.

Most organizations have hundreds to thousands of applications, and onboarding those applications into an identity security solution can be costly and time-consuming, particularly if the organization lacks the expert resource to handle the process in-house. Hence, businesses tend to prioritize onboarding only their business-critical applications, such as Salesforce or Workday, while leaving the rest of their applications unmanaged and vulnerable.

The SailPoint application automatically discovers applications, increasing visibility across the environment, after which administrators choose the connection method from hundreds of options, or get smart, AI-driven recommendations based on SailPoint application usage insights and best practices.

SailPoint application onboarding also generates AI-powered recommendations that can help map identities to accounts. Identifying these correlations can be time-consuming and automating the process will dramatically streamline the onboarding process and is expected to reduce the mapping time by up to 70% on average.

“Manual application onboarding can be an arduous process for today’s businesses, sometimes taking weeks or even months to complete,” said Grady Summers, EVP, Product, SailPoint. “Our new capability is expected to allow customers to shorten that process to hours or days, enabling their business-critical applications to be brought safely under their identity security umbrella with a minimal investment of time or energy. Automating this process will make it easier for customers to implement effective identity security capabilities across their entire digital ecosystem.”
