Must-Have Features for MVP
HR-to-entitlement compiler (derives RBAC/ABAC from job codes, location, cost center)
SoD policy engine with prebuilt rule packs (SOX, PCI) and custom toxic combos
Access simulation sandbox: test policy changes before enforcement
Just-in-time, time-bound access with Slack/Teams approvals and audit trails
Automated deprovisioning on terminations and lifecycle events
Usage-based right-sizing recommendations using app activity telemetry
Quarterly access review automation with attestation evidence packs
Connectors for Okta/Azure AD + deep SaaS entitlement discovery (e.g., Salesforce, SAP, GitHub)
⚠️ Potential Challenges
- Inconsistent HR data and job catalogs
- API gaps in legacy SaaS for entitlement discovery
- Change management with app owners and managers
- Performance at scale for entitlement graphing
Risk Level: Moderate
🎯 Keys to Success
- 80% reduction in orphaned and stale accounts
- 90% decrease in SoD violations detected post-deployment
- 50% faster audit evidence preparation for access reviews
- >70% of access requests fulfilled via JIT without ticketing
