3. Mass Update Exceptions (AccessPaaS™/Policy Manager)
Organizations often require Segregation of Duties policy “waivers” for certain users such as IT support staff, service accounts for API integration, Robots and remote business units with limited users. Mass Update feature enables users to close the violations for such users and roles for all or some SOD policies by selecting the rules and applying to users and roles. This capability minimizes the effort to maintain exceptions by using the mass update exceptions feature. To see how this feature works, visit - Mass Update Exceptions.
2. SAML – Single sign-on (Administration Company)
Our customers are enabling thousands of users to access SafePaaS self-service security and control monitoring services using SAML enabled single sign-on (SSO) from multiple devices using a single ID. This takes just minutes to set up and makes end-user management much more efficient. To see how this features works, visit SAML -Single sign on

1. Self- Service Access Request (iAccess™)
iAccess™ became the most popular SafePaaS application service in 2020 as our customers adopted work-from-anywhere policies and required assurance that users are granted access in compliance with company security and access governance policies to business applications and sensitive data no matter where they may be accessing the systems. In iAccess™ users can request access to the user self-provisioning tool by submitting a request that goes through a workflow to either be approved or rejected. Automating self-service access requests helps mitigate human error as well as create an audit trail for compliance.
