Better Together: Augmenting SailPoint with Full-Stack Access Visibility
Blog post from Veza
SailPoint is a widely adopted identity governance tool in many large enterprises, known for managing access certifications, provisioning workflows, and policy enforcement, but it often faces challenges with visibility gaps, especially in systems not directly connected to its provisioning path. As cloud sprawl and shadow IT expand, traditional Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) systems like SailPoint struggle to keep up with the evolving landscape, leading to governance gaps. Veza steps in to augment SailPoint by providing real-time visibility into permissions across all applications, including those disconnected from the provisioning path, thereby addressing these blind spots. In practice, Veza has enabled organizations to uncover shadow IT access, enforce Segregation of Duties (SoD) controls, and gain a comprehensive, real-time view of access risk without replacing existing systems. This collaboration between SailPoint and Veza facilitates identity maturity by ensuring policies are effectively enforced across all environments, reducing audit fire drills, and giving leadership a clear view of governance effectiveness.
