Manual Identity Management Creates Security Risks
Organizations struggle with fragmented, manual processes for employee lifecycle management. These inefficiencies create security vulnerabilities, compliance gaps, and operational overhead that scale poorly with organizational growth.
Fragmented System Access
Employee accounts are provisioned across dozens of disconnected systems—from HR platforms to cloud services—requiring manual coordination that introduces delays and inconsistencies in access management.
Security Gap Windows
Manual processes create dangerous time windows where departing employees retain access to critical systems, while new hires may wait days for proper provisioning, impacting both security and productivity.
Compliance Documentation Chaos
Auditors require comprehensive access trails and compliance documentation that manual processes cannot efficiently provide, creating regulatory risks and audit preparation overhead.
