Can Your IT Team Handle Access Provisioning for Your Business?

Use Cases

Can Your Current IT Workflow Support Secure and Scalable Access Provisioning? Often, the answer to this question lies somewhere in between a yes and a no. This is because every business has its own unique requirements. And in between are the IT and HR teams bearing the load.

Automating resource and access provisioning can help businesses meet these requirements. By 2026, over 60% of enterprises are projected to adopt Zero Trust frameworks within their IAM systems, which focus on securing access regardless of the user’s location or device.

The world is shifting towards automation, and there’s a need for it. According to the Auvik IT Trends Report for 2025, 60% of IT professionals feel moderately burnt out. This highlights the importance of managing security systems and access effectively.

In this blog, we will discuss the challenges associated with manual provisioning and explore components that can help IT employees achieve a balanced approach to implementing access provisioning.

Common Manual Access Provisioning Challenges

1. Overaccess: Organizations often provide excessive access to employees for apps they don’t need. A study by StrongDM revealed that nearly one-third of users have access to systems they haven’t used in the past 90 days.

2. Disconnected systems: It’s crucial to maintain synchronization between HRIS systems and identity providers to avoid significant delays in onboarding, role changes, and offboarding processes.

3. Manual processes inevitably lead to errors: Mistakes hinder scalability, result in incorrect access, and cause orphaned accounts. These challenges not only burden and overload IT and security teams but also increase the risk of costly security breaches and cyberattacks.

4. Compliance and audit failures: The absence of a proper review system and incomplete access logs and records make it challenging to meet audit requirements.

5. Inadequate role-based access control (RBAC): A lack of RBAC can lead to potential security risks and data breaches. Implementing RBAC improves efficiency and ensures compliance.

Manual provisioning will cost you time and effort on resources that no longer meet the requirements. Hire2Retire can automate access provisioning and solve these challenges for you

Overcoming Access Provisioning Challenges with Hire2Retire

1. Synchronize HRIS to IdP:

Hire2Retire automatically synchronizes identities in real time from your HRIS to your identity provider of choice, such as Entra ID, Okta Directory, or Google Workspace. This seamless synchronization simplifies your onboarding, role change, and off-boarding processes. Hire2Retire handles the entire lifecycle, from account creation to timely terminations.

2. Automate Access Provisioning:

Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC)

Hire2Retire empowers you to implement attribute-based access control (ABAC) by mapping common employee attributes and defining attribute-driven rule sets within the Organizational Unit assignment section.

For instance, you can set rules so a user who is a ‘Doctor’ in the ‘Pediatrician’ department can view ‘Patient Medical Records’ for patients assigned to ‘Pediatrician’. Additionally, you could only allow access from a ‘Hospital Network’ during ‘Business Hours’ on a ‘Compliant Device’.

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)

Hire2Retire also offers role-based access control (RBAC) through its group memberships feature. For example, this allows you to ensure that new employees in the sales department automatically gain access to only the required third-party apps and documents relevant to their department.

3. Meet Compliance and Security Needs:

While your Active Directory (AD) may not be versionable, Hire2Retire maintains event history and tracks data changes in a built-in compliance and audit trail. This helps you maintain your audit logs, ensuring that you have a comprehensive record of your organization’s activities. You can also view detailed information on these activities through the reconcile tab in the Hire2Retire workflow.

Hire2Retire offers a comprehensive solution that automates access provisioning, establishes least privilege access procedures, and meets compliance and security standards. By leveraging its features, organizations can streamline their processes, enhance security, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.
