Summary

Managing access control in cloud-native infrastructures can be time-consuming and error-prone due to the manual processes involved in configuring and updating permissions as organizations grow. Cast AI has introduced the Identity Provider (IdP) User Groups Sync feature to address these challenges by integrating directly with IdPs like Okta or Azure AD, allowing for automatic synchronization of user groups. This feature eliminates manual access control tasks, maintains near real-time consistency, and enhances security by ensuring that user permissions are aligned with corporate policies. The IdP User Groups Sync enables selective syncing of relevant teams, near real-time provisioning of users, automated user lifecycle management, and consistent permission updates, thus significantly reducing administrative overhead and security risks. It is designed for scalability, making it suitable for enterprises managing large teams, and is now available for those using Okta or Azure Identity Providers.
