Identity Governance & Administration (IGA)

Fischer Identity’s IGA solution centralizes and automates the way your organization manages user access—ensuring the right people have the right access at the right time. With features like policy-based provisioning, self-service access requests, delegated administration, and full user lifecycle automation, Fischer delivers secure, compliant, and auditable identity management without custom code.

Our Core IGA Features.

Identity Lifecycle Management

Our Identity Lifecycle Management solution empowers organizations to effectively manage user identities across the entire lifecycle. We minimize manual processes, reduce security risks, and ensure regulatory compliance. With integrations across 100+ applications and systems, Fischer Identity delivers a seamless, automated identity experience adaptable to any organization, regardless of industry.

Automated provisioning and deprovisioning

Fischer Identity’s Identity Lifecycle Management feature automates user access across the entire lifecycle—from initial provisioning to secure deprovisioning—without writing a single line of code. Using the no-code Fischer Identity Workflow Studio, organizations can easily build and manage data-driven workflows that respond to user events such as onboarding, role changes, or departures.

Access rights are granted or revoked automatically based on role, policy, or identity attributes, ensuring consistent enforcement of least-privilege principles across all systems. This approach accelerates onboarding, enhances security, and reduces IT overhead—while maintaining full control and compliance.

Granular Access Controls

Fischer Identity’s Identity Lifecycle Management feature empowers organizations to enforce intelligent, risk-aware access policies at scale. Fully supporting Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), and Policy-Based Access Control (PBAC), organizations can define and automate access decisions based on user roles, contextual attributes, and organizational policies.

Whether provisioning access to internal systems, external applications, or sensitive data, Fischer ensures access is continuously aligned with business intent, regulatory requirements, and least-privilege principles. This adaptive policy framework reduces risk, eliminates overprovisioning, and enhances compliance across the identity lifecycle.

Intelligent User Match

Fischer Identity’s User Match feature intelligently identifies and reconciles incoming identity data with existing user records—preventing duplicate accounts and preserving a unified identity profile. When potential matches are found, the system can automatically link to an existing user or prompt for review based on confidence thresholds.

Whether sourced from self-registration, HR systems, directories, or external feeds, new identity records are evaluated against configurable matching logic that can include attributes such as name, email, employee ID, or organizational affiliation.

Identity Synchronization Across Systems

Fischer Identity ensures that identity data remains consistent and up to date across all connected systems, directories, and applications. Using real-time synchronization, any changes to user attributes—such as title, department, or status—are automatically propagated across the enterprise.

This centralized approach eliminates data silos, reduces administrative overhead, and strengthens security by ensuring all systems reflect accurate and current identity information. Built using Fischer’s no-code Workflow Studio, synchronization processes are fully configurable and tailored to your environment—no scripting required.

Integration with Enterprise Systems

Seamlessly integrates with the most well-known HCM systems such as Workday, Oracle HCM, Ellucian Ethos, Banner, Colleague, and other critical enterprise systems.

Self-Service Access Requests

Replace manual request processes with a secure, user-friendly portal that enables individuals to request access to applications and resources. Request options are dynamically tailored based on role and context, and are routed through automated approval workflows—accelerating access delivery, minimizing IT involvement, and ensuring every decision is policy-driven and fully auditable.

Multi-Level Approvals

Fischer Identity’s multi-level approval engine ensures that access to sensitive systems and data is granted only after thorough, policy-driven oversight. Access requests can be routed through a configurable series of approval stages—based on user role, resource sensitivity, business unit, or regulatory requirements—ensuring the right stakeholders are involved at each step.

Approvers can review detailed request information, including user context, business justification, and risk indicators before making decisions. Escalation paths, timeouts, and delegation options ensure requests are processed efficiently without compromising governance.

Delegated Approvers

Allows organizations to assign delegated approvers who can act on access requests within their defined scope—such as department managers, project leads, or application owners. These approvers can review, approve, or deny requests based on business context, user roles, and justification, all within a secure, user-friendly interface.

Delegated approvers help distribute governance responsibilities, accelerate decision-making, and reduce bottlenecks, while maintaining accountability through detailed audit trails and policy enforcement. This capability ensures timely access delivery without sacrificing control or compliance.

Time-Bound Access ENforcement

Enforce time-limited access to systems, applications, and data—reducing risk by ensuring entitlements are not retained longer than necessary. Whether for contractors, temporary projects, or elevated privileges, access can be granted with a predefined expiration date and automatically revoked when the time period ends.

Request History & Audit Trail

Fischer Identity maintains a comprehensive, tamper-evident audit trail of all access request activities—from initiation to final decision. Every action is logged, including who requested access, what was requested, when and how it was approved or denied, and the associated business justification.

These detailed records support regulatory compliance, internal audits, and security investigations by providing full visibility into the decision-making process. Organizations can generate on-demand reports, trace access privileges over time, and ensure that entitlements are granted and managed according to policy and accountability standards.

Access Requests & Approvals

Our Access Requests & Approvals solution automates the entire access lifecycle, providing a user-friendly interface for streamlined requests, intelligent routing for swift approvals, and comprehensive governance to mitigate risks. We empower your organization to manage access confidently, securely, and efficiently.

External Identity Management

Fischer Identity’s External Identity Management capabilities enable organizations to securely manage the full identity lifecycle for non-employee users—including contractors, vendors, partners, affiliates, and other third parties. These users often require tailored access to internal systems, yet fall outside traditional HR-driven identity processes.

Approval-Based Onboarding

Fischer Identity’s Approval-Based Onboarding capabilities ensure that all external users—such as contractors, vendors, and partners—are subject to thorough, policy-driven access reviews before joining the digital ecosystem. As part of the onboarding workflow, requests are automatically routed to designated approvers based on business unit, resource sensitivity, or organizational role.

Access Expiration Enforcement

Ensure that external access remains aligned with business needs through automated expiration and recertification controls. Access for third-party users—such as contractors, vendors, and partners—can be time-bound from the moment of onboarding, with predefined expiration dates that trigger automated deprovisioning when no longer valid.

To further support governance efforts, periodic access recertifications are managed through Fischer’s Compliance solution. This allows organizations to regularly prompt designated reviewers to validate or revoke external user access based on current roles, responsibilities, and project relevance—reinforcing least-privilege principles and helping maintain audit readiness across the identity lifecycle.

Sponsorship & Delegated User Management

Enables organizations to maintain control over external users by assigning internal sponsors—designated employees or departments responsible for managing third-party identities such as contractors, vendors, or partners.

Sponsors can initiate onboarding, approve access, monitor user activity, and trigger deactivation when access is no longer needed. Combined with delegated administration, business units can securely manage their external users within defined governance boundaries, without relying on central IT for every action.

Role and Policy-Based Delegation

Fischer Identity enables organizations to assign user management capabilities based on predefined roles and policies. Whether it’s department heads, HR staff, or helpdesk agents, delegated administrators gain scoped access to perform identity-related actions—without full system access—ensuring security and accountability.

Approval Delegation

Fischer Identity’s Approval Delegation feature empowers administrators and designated approvers to temporarily or permanently delegate their approval authority to other trusted users—ensuring seamless workflow continuity without compromising security or oversight.

Whether covering for vacation, role transitions, or organizational restructuring, delegated approvers can review and take action on access requests, provisioning tasks, and policy certifications on behalf of the original approver. All delegated activities are fully auditable, time-bound, and governed by Fischer’s policy-driven controls, ensuring accountability and adherence to compliance requirements.

Administrative Profile Management

Fischer’s Administrative Profile Management empowers authorized administrators with secure, role-based access to view and manage identity profiles across the organization. Whether updating user attributes, managing role assignments, or initiating password resets, administrative users can act swiftly and accurately—without compromising security or compliance.

This capability is especially valuable in distributed environments, where central IT teams rely on delegated admins (such as HR, department heads, or helpdesk personnel) to maintain identity data. All actions are governed by Fischer’s fine-grained access controls and are fully audited to ensure accountability, transparency, and adherence to organizational policy.

Delegated Control with Full Auditability

Every delegated action—whether a password reset, user status change, or entitlement update—is logged in Fischer’s immutable audit trail. This ensures all identity operations performed “on behalf of” others are fully traceable, helping organizations meet internal security standards and external audit requirements.

Delegated User Administration

Fischer’s Delegated User Administration feature simplifies identity management by allowing authorized users to securely manage profiles, approvals, and access within their defined roles. With role-based controls, approval delegation, and administrative profile management, organizations gain flexibility without sacrificing security or oversight.

Self-Registration

Our Self-Registration solution offers a user-friendly, secure, and automated way to onboard users across your organization. Whether onboarding employees, contractors, partners, or external collaborators, it reduces administrative overhead, enhances user experience, and ensures alignment with organizational policies and compliance requirements.

Branded Registration Portal

Deliver a seamless and secure onboarding experience tailored for external users—such as contractors, vendors, affiliates, and partners. Fully customizable, the portal reflects your organization’s visual identity, including logo, color scheme, messaging, and domain, creating a trusted and consistent brand experience from the first point of engagement.

Beyond aesthetics, the portal integrates tightly with Fischer’s workflow engine to launch policy-driven onboarding processes, automate approvals, and maintain full audit trails. 

Configurable Data Collection

Enables organizations to design flexible, dynamic data intake forms tailored to specific user types, onboarding scenarios, or regulatory requirements. Whether onboarding employees, contractors, vendors, or partners, administrators can define which identity attributes to collect—such as name, contact information, role, department, or organization—and adjust field visibility, validation rules, and conditional logic without writing code.

Forms can adapt in real time based on user input or context, ensuring that only relevant information is captured while maintaining data accuracy and completeness. All collected data flows seamlessly into automated workflows for provisioning, approvals, or identity matching, forming a critical foundation for secure, policy-driven identity lifecycle management.

Terms of Use & Consent

Enforce compliance and transparency by presenting customized Terms of Use, privacy policies, or acceptable use agreements during onboarding and registration processes. Users are required to review and provide explicit consent before gaining access to systems or data, ensuring informed participation and legal accountability.

Each consent action is securely logged with a timestamp and user identifier, creating a verifiable audit trail that supports regulatory compliance with standards such as GDPR, FERPA, and HIPAA.

Self-Registration with Approval

Fischer Identity’s self-registration process includes built-in approval workflows to ensure that every access request is reviewed and authorized before account creation or system access. Once a user submits their registration, the request is automatically routed to the appropriate approvers—such as department heads, sponsors, or administrators—based on predefined policies and user attributes.

User-Friendly Access Request Portal

Fischer Identity’s self-service access request portal offers a clean, intuitive interface that empowers users to quickly find and request the resources they need—without IT assistance. The portal dynamically displays available applications, systems, or data based on the user’s role, department, or organizational context, minimizing confusion and reducing access-related support tickets. With built-in search, categorization, and guided request flows, users can initiate requests in just a few clicks—streamlining onboarding, improving productivity, and accelerating time to access.

Role- and Policy-Based Visibility

Users only see access options relevant to their role, department, or location. This minimizes confusion, reduces risk, and ensures requests align with organizational policies.

Automated Approval Workflows

Configurable, multi-level approval routing ensures each access request is reviewed by the right stakeholders—whether it’s a manager, system owner, or compliance officer.

Real-Time Policy Validation

Every access request submitted through Fischer Identity’s self-service portal is instantly evaluated against your organization’s defined access policies, roles, and compliance rules. This real-time validation ensures that requests align with role-based entitlements, attribute-based policies, and segregation of duties (SoD) constraints—preventing excessive or conflicting access before it’s granted. By enforcing access rules at the point of request, organizations reduce risk exposure, ensure regulatory alignment, and maintain a consistent security posture without slowing down business operations.

Self-Service Access Requests

Fischer Identity empowers users to request access to applications, systems, or data through a secure, self-service portal—eliminating outdated manual processes and reducing IT overhead. Each request is evaluated against predefined policies, roles, and entitlement criteria, ensuring that only appropriate access is granted. Built-in multi-level approval workflows route requests to designated reviewers based on role, department, or sensitivity level providing full lifecycle visibility and governance from request to revocation.

Segregation of Duties (SoD) Enforcement

To prevent conflicts of interest and reduce operational risk, Fischer’s IGA platform supports the definition and enforcement of Segregation of Duties (SoD) rules. These rules detect and prevent toxic access combinations (e.g., the ability to both approve and process financial transactions), alerting administrators before violations occur. Real-time policy checks block non-compliant assignments and support proactive mitigation—helping organizations demonstrate strong internal controls and avoid audit findings.

SoD Policy Definition Engine

Create and manage rule sets that define conflicting access combinations (e.g., “cannot create and approve invoices”). These rules align with internal controls and external compliance mandates.

Real-Time Conflict Detection

During access requests, provisioning, or role assignments, the system automatically checks for SoD violations in real time—flagging or blocking risky combinations before they are granted.

SoD Violation Reporting & Remediation

Generate detailed reports on SoD violations by user, application, or business unit. Support remediation by triggering revocation tasks or launching review campaigns to correct noncompliant access.

Preventive and Detective Controls

Apply preventive controls to stop conflicting access at the point of assignment, and detective controls to identify existing violations in the environment through scheduled scans or reports.

Federated Identity Support

Enable secure cross-domain access and collaboration by integrating with external identity providers such as Azure AD, Google Workspace, or other trusted partners—while maintaining centralized control.

Account Check-In / Check-Out Controls

Provides time-bound, auditable access to privileged accounts—ensuring accountability, reducing standing access, and enabling full traceability for every privileged session.

Automatic Access Revocation

This feature ensures that privileged access is automatically removed when the access expires. By eliminating the need for manual intervention, it reduces the risk of orphaned accounts and prevents unauthorized access to sensitive systems. It supports strong governance by enforcing strict lifecycle controls and maintaining access hygiene across your environment.

Lock & Disable on Revocation

Adds an extra layer of protection by automatically locking or disabling privileged accounts when access is revoked to prevent unauthorized reactivation or misuse.

Scheduled Random Password Scrambles

Periodically changes privileged account passwords using randomized values to limit exposure, preventing credential reuse, and enhancing compliance with security policies.

Privileged Access Controls

Fischer Identity’s Privileged Access Control solution helps organizations secure and govern high-risk accounts by automating access control, password rotation, and revocation. With built-in policy enforcement and full auditability, PAC ensures compliance, reduces risk, and strengthens protection of critical systems—without adding administrative complexity.
