Aveksa Enterprise Access Governance Solutions

Security Compliance Management

The diversity of application and data assets across an enterprise, combined with the complexity of their related legacy, client-server, web and service-oriented architectures, poses a daunting governance and risk management challenge. Managing the security, compliance and regulatory risks of inappropriate access to applications and information requires a strategic approach to access governance - one that is based on auditable business processes that enable line-of-business managers and information security, compliance and audit teams to collaborate while ensuring accountability, transparency and visibility.

Business managers are key to this collaboration. While security compliance teams define policies and controls based on business requirements and regulatory mandates, it is the line-of-business managers who understand how information assets need to be used; who should have access to them and the business context for reviewing user entitlements; and defining roles to simplify access management and compliance.

With the right business processes for access governance in place, it's easy to determine who has access to what; how they got that access; whether they should have access; who approved what; what business and IT roles are appropriate; whether compliance objectives are being met; and what the key risk indicators are.

Aveksa 3 is the industry's only comprehensive Enterprise Access Governance solution.  It enables automated, auditable business processes for the management, monitoring, reporting and remediation of access rights to enterprise information assets, while enforcing accountability and enabling key stakeholders to collaborate to achieve good governance.  Aveksa 3 integrates with and leverages existing infrastructure for identity management and IT change management. With Aveksa 3:

• Business managers can create, maintain and delete roles; assign and approve entitlements and roles; define business policies; and re-certify entitlements and roles periodically.  They are provided with the appropriate business context for these tasks and the ability to query, report, test and collaborate to gain the appropriate insight to make informed decisions.
• Security and compliance teams, who invariably shoulder the bulk of the pressures of access governance, security, compliance and risk, can perform the central role of setting polices and enforcing accountability.  Aveksa 3 enables them to orchestrate and automate role lifecycle management and entitlement management; to monitor who has access to what and manage approval and remediation workflows; to scope the responsibilities of line-of-business managers;  enforce segregation of duties (SOD) and other compliance policies;  provide auditors with evidence of compliance; and support security compliance reporting and risk assessments.
• Auditors and compliance managers can run reports, check evidence or test controls when necessary. In addition, they can link risk and controls documentation to evidence of controls for seamless visibility to company performance against risk and compliance objectives.
• All changes made by business managers, security and compliance teams are auditable.
• Metrics to assess risk and compliance status are available to authorized managers.
• All processes aligned with meeting compliance objectives are repeatable, and providing evidence of compliance becomes an error-proof, automated process. 

Aveksa 3 enables organizations to more rapidly respond to security compliance and regulatory demands by automating the following:  

• Access Certification
• Role Management
