The greatest challenge in identifying and managing enterprise risk is understanding the actual business access that the technical entitlements granted to users enable. The IGA system must bridge the divide between the technical “system” world and the business “process” world by providing a common language or “Intelligibility Layer” that connects both. EmpowerID uncovers the real-world impact of technical entitlements with a concept known as Functions. Functions are the business user recognizable terms for the activities performed by users with the access they are granted. Traditional examples of Functions which would represent a risk are “Create Purchase Order” and “Approve Purchase Order”. Functions define the system-specific permissions or roles that grant someone the ability to perform these type of business actions. EmpowerID ships with a large library of Function definitions for common systems. Process owners and application owners may also use the Function mapping tools in EmpowerID to define which application permissions or roles equate to which Functions. Risk policies then use Functions as building blocks to uncover who has access to perform which Functions and which users are in violation of risk policies.

EmpowerID is a powerful tool that helps users identify and manage enterprise risks by simplifying complex technical entitlements and mapping them to easily understandable business functions. This enables organizations to have better visibility and control over user access and risk management.
Mapping Technical Entitlements to Business Functions
Technical entitlements are the permissions and roles assigned to users within various systems. These entitlements can be difficult to understand due to their technical nature, making it challenging for organizations to manage risks effectively. EmpowerID bridges this gap by mapping technical entitlements to more comprehensible business functions. Business functions are activities performed by users with granted access, such as creating or approving purchase orders. By simplifying technical entitlements and linking them to business functions, EmpowerID offers several advantages:
Improved risk identification: Users can easily spot potential risks as they can understand the real-world impact of granting specific access levels.
Better decision-making: A clearer understanding of access levels allows users to make informed decisions about whether to grant or revoke access based on potential risks.
Streamlined processes: Mapping technical entitlements to business functions simplifies the process of managing user access and risk policies.
