Benefits of Group Implementation
The advantages offered by the implementation of groups in SailPoint are:
-
Logical, meaningful names can be used for UID masks, reflecting their grouping qualities.
-
Setting up a new user is easily accomplished by connecting the user to groups or disconnecting the user from groups instead of updating the coded UID fields.
-
The group can be associated with SailPoint IT Roles, allowing for automated creation of users and assigning of access rights.
-
The Account—Group connection window shows which Account is associated with a Group and vice-versa.
-
SailPoint's drag-and-drop capabilities can be used to create connections between Accounts and Groups.
