What is defined as the process of granting, changing, or removing user access in IdentityNow?

Provisioning is the key process that involves granting, changing, or removing user access within IdentityNow. This involves systematically managing user identities and ensuring that users have the appropriate access rights to resources based on their roles.

In the context of IdentityNow, provisioning encompasses various actions such as onboarding new users, modifying access as roles or responsibilities change, and revoking access when users leave the organization or change positions. This process is vital for maintaining security and compliance, ensuring that users have access only to the resources necessary for their job functions, and helps to mitigate potential risks associated with improper access.

While identity management broadly refers to the overall strategy and policies governing user identities and access management, provisioning specifically focuses on the operational aspect—how access rights are actually implemented and adjusted. Access control, on the other hand, relates more to the security measures in place to determine who can access specific resources rather than the process of managing that access. Business modeling is unrelated, as it pertains to the design and management of business processes rather than user access management.
