SailPoint Workflows enables customers to automate security tasks with no coding required

Partnering with business leaders to simplify and accelerate their security programs since 2005, SailPoint announced the launch of Workflows during the company’s annual conference Navigate 2021: Confidence Redefined. This new visual tool empowers SailPoint customers to automate security tasks with no coding required.

SailPoint Workflows democratizes customizations for every identity program

Enterprises today are facing a paradigm shift following the accelerated rate of the digital transformation and remote work boom. As a result, organizations need to be much more agile than ever before and increasingly drive higher operational efficiency by reducing manual tasks across departments. Gaining such efficiency used to require expert developers to customize the organization’s identity systems. With Workflows, SailPoint is democratizing software development and enabling everyone to solve their biggest challenges and automate tedious processes with no-code options.

No two enterprise security measures are the same and organizations are rapidly scaling digital initiatives to meet changing market needs. In order to accomplish this, enterprises are seeking more automation capabilities with no-code technology. Gartner predicts, “By 2025, 70% of new applications developed by enterprises will use low-code or no-code technologies (up from less than 25% in 2020).”

“At SailPoint, we think every organization deserves an identity security program like the ones we see at Fortune 100 companies. However, identity talent is in high demand, and most companies don’t have teams of developers available to tailor solutions to their unique needs. We want to put that power into the hands of all of our customers,” said Grady Summers, EVP of Product, SailPoint.

“Earlier this year, we opened our identity security platform to be extensible in anticipation of offering no-code options. We continue to build a flexible product to help our customers on every part of their journey. We accomplish this with Workflows—build security templates once, scale and share with teams for efficiency, all done securely.”

The features

With Workflows enterprises are able to do the following:

• Automate use cases like event-driven certifications and custom approvals through APIs and event triggers
• Accelerate innovation with easy drag-and-drop builder through no-code workflow, decreasing runtime and freeing up team power to focus on forward looking projects
• Connect to other SaaS applications, enabling a broad range of capabilities across a company’s technology ecosystem
• Integrate into a customer’s cloud environment and SailPoint’s partner network

“For over 50 years, Flinders University has been a center of inspiring achievement. To continue our mission, we need to remain vigilant on security and speed when granting our people access to resources needed to get the job done. We are thrilled to be part of the SailPoint Workflows beta program to help us accomplish security efficiency,” said Sam Ogden, Identity Services Lead at Flinders University.

“My team is already anticipating reaping the benefits from these automation capabilities. To have the option to integrate SailPoint within our digital ecosystem or directly within the SailPoint Identity Platform is the flexibility we need today. Workflows is an identity security game-changer that we look forward to implementing.”
