User access reviews within PathLock Cloud are accessible via the PathLock Cloud platform interface, as well as our community portal, which is a configurable page that allows organizations to control the context of what users can see. The example PeopleSoft Financial Certification shows valuable context around the indicated user, what type of employee they are, their job title, information about their role in the organization, and why that's important. Additional information about the user is provided, along with details about the assigned roles. Usage information, risk violations, and the history of the different roles and comparative peer analysis enable reviewers to take direction action on the authorization, determining if access will be approved or rejected. PathLock's ability to bring in content directly and indicate high-risk activities by the user is a major differentiator for PeopleSoft systems. This is possible with PathLock's ability to extract log activity out of the PeopleSoft system, understand the transactions that users are utilizing, and categorize those transactions to indicate sensitive functionality. For example, access to a national ID or social security number. The interactive ability to drill into user profiles to see information about the total access available, specific activities within a role that have been executed, a date and time stamp of usage, and flagging of high-risk activities combine to provide an almost real-time user access review certification capability. The additional ability to remove access on the spot enables complete control for the reviewer over the end-user's access. This is a truly unique differentiator by PathLock in support of higher education institutions, as no other solution offers this capability.

TL;DR

  • Pathlock Cloud delivers user access reviews through both its main platform and a configurable community portal that controls what users can see during certification processes.
  • The solution extracts PeopleSoft log activity to provide real-time visibility into user transactions, categorizing them to flag sensitive functionality like national ID or social security number access.
  • Reviewers can approve or reject access based on comprehensive context including usage information, risk violations, role history, and comparative peer analysis, with the ability to remove access immediately.

Summary

This demonstration showcases Pathlock Cloud's user access review capabilities specifically designed for higher education institutions running PeopleSoft Financial systems. The platform provides reviewers with comprehensive context about users including employment type, job title, organizational role, and assigned permissions. What distinguishes Pathlock's approach is its ability to extract and analyze PeopleSoft log activity in real-time, categorizing transactions to identify sensitive functionality such as access to national IDs or social security numbers. Reviewers can drill into user profiles to see total access available, specific activities executed within each role, timestamped usage data, and flagged high-risk behaviors. The platform enables immediate action through on-the-spot access removal, providing complete control over end-user permissions. Pathlock positions this real-time certification capability combined with direct access management as unique in the higher education IGA market, claiming no other solution offers this integrated approach for PeopleSoft environments.

FAQ

What makes Pathlock's approach different for PeopleSoft environments in higher education?

Pathlock extracts log activity directly from PeopleSoft systems to provide real-time visibility into actual user transactions and usage patterns. This enables reviewers to see not just what access users have, but what they're actually doing with it, including timestamped activity and flagged high-risk behaviors. The platform also allows immediate access removal during the review process, rather than requiring separate remediation workflows.

How does Pathlock identify high-risk user activities?

Pathlock categorizes PeopleSoft transactions to identify sensitive functionality, such as access to national IDs or social security numbers. By analyzing extracted log activity, the system flags when users execute transactions involving sensitive data, providing reviewers with clear indicators of potentially risky behavior during access certification.
