overall identity risks.

PRODUCT INNOVATIONS RSA® IDENTITY GOVERNANCE AND LIFECYCLE 7.1 RELEASE FEATURES & ENHANCEMENTS

FEATURES ENHANCEMENTS

New Access

Reviewer

Experience

New guided reviewer experience makes it easier for the

business user to complete access reviews, reducing overall

certification fatigue. This is accomplished through a new

user experience that guides the business user through easy-

to-understand reviews that help prioritize actions so the

business users can focus on high-priority items.

Password

Credentials

Vault

Integration

(Collectors)

Improve your overall security posture with centralized

password and rotation policy management for end-point

systems for RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle

managed applications. RSA Identity Governance and

Lifecycle collector (such as AD, LDAP, database) credentials

are centrally managed within their corporate credential

vault (i.e., CyberArk Application Identity Manager [AIM])—

no longer having to manage them separately within RSA

Identity Governance and Lifecycle.

Data

Archiving

Improved system efficiency by archiving unneeded data.

Customers can archive data that is no longer necessary in

the production system. Once archived, this data can be used

for audit and reporting purposes only.

Workflow

Priority

Queues &

Enhanced

Dashboard

Improved workflow priority visibility lets users proactively

understand factors that may be blocking higher-priority

requests and be able to remediate.

Multiple workflow queues have been added to manage

various types of requests to process the most important

items first, such as termination/password reset requests,

which are placed in a high-priority queue. New dashboard

surfaces details on workflow performance and alerts

administrators with issues that may be blocking higher-

priority requests from being addressed.

DATA SHEET

Virtual

Application

for VMware

RSA has made it easier for customers to deploy a virtual

image of the RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle

application in their virtual environment for VMware. This

reduces the time and effort required to get RSA Identity

Governance and Lifecycle up and running in a virtual

environment through traditional installation processes.

Platform

Updates

Customers can now ensure that their RSA Identity

Governance and Lifecycle implementation is aligned

with the latest corporate standards and policy. RSA has

updated versions of the supported operating systems

(SUSE 12), application services (WildFly 10, WebLogic 12.2,

WebSphere 9) and Java 8.

PACKAGED IMPLEMENTATION OFFERINGSQuick Start and Implementation Blueprint packaged offerings provide

standardized implementations for core governance and lifecycle management

as well as key use cases and integrations that align to recommended practices.

These fixed-price offerings allow organizations clarity and certainty to take on

a project with clear timelines and defined costs—two major pain points when

undertaking a governance project. This allows for quicker time to value and

demonstrated ROI on the investment.

Packages Available:

• Quick Start for Identity Governance

• Quick Start for Identity Lifecycle

• Bulk Attribute Update Implementation Blueprint

• Bulk Lock/Disable Inactive Accounts Implementation Blueprint

• Finacle Implementation Blueprint

• Epic® Implementation Blueprint

• RSA Authentication Manager Prime Implementation Blueprint

• RSA Archer® Implementation Blueprint for Identity Management

RECOMMENDED PRACTICES:

Identity governance and user administration is highly complex and not solvable

with technology alone. RSA Recommended Practices take a holistic approach

to show customers the people, process and technology solutions that are most

effective. Initial Recommended Practices include:

• Access certifications

• Access requests

• High availability and business continuity

• Joiner, mover, leaver processes

DATA SHEET

TOP REASONS TO UPGRADE TO VERSION 7.1Whether you are on an older version of RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle

or just recently updated to version 7.0.x, upgrading to version 7.1 provides

many benefits.

BETTER USER EXPERIENCE AND MORE EFFECTIVE ACCESS REVIEWS

The new user experience for reviews provides a much simpler experience for

your end users, a great advantage, but it’s more than that. The newly enhanced

experience leverages underlying risk analytics to determine risky access and/

or violations and prioritizes that access for the end users. By taking a risk-based

approach, reviews are more effective, as the highest priority (riskiest access) is

addressed first by the end users. This ultimately helps reduce rubber stamping

by business users and improves your overall security posture.

MORE SECURE PASSWORD MANAGEMENT FOR PRIVILEGED USERS

Organizations that are using the current integration with CyberArk in the 7.0

platform can enable the collectors with version 7.1 for CyberArk in addition to the

existing connectors. This enables passwords to be managed and rotated through

CyberArk instead of being stored inside RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle.

IMPROVED PRODUCT PERFORMANCE AND SCALABILITY

We continue to focus on advancing overall performance and scalability of the

platform to ensure it meets the growing needs of our customers. Additional

enhancements, including data archiving and workflow priority queuing and

dashboards, help to streamline and make day-to-day administration easier and

faster within the platform. The archiving feature helps organizations that have

lengthy retention policies and/or compliance requirements. By archiving, you

are able to meet the requirement, but move data off of production in order to

improve overall performance and not bog down the system.

BROADER SYSTEM SUPPORT

The newly released platform supports updated versions of the operating

system (SUSE 12), application services (WildFly 10, WebLogic 12.2, WebSphere

9) and Java 8. These updated version supports may be required by some

environments and are available now with version 7.1.
