    Closing the Entitlement Provisioning Gap with Autonomous Governance

    Least privilege at scale requires automation across legacy, cloud, directories, Linux, and databases—without manual bottlenecks.

    Entitlement provisioning remains a critical gap in Identity and Access Governance (IAG), even as the ecosystem matures. Ensuring users have the right access to the right resources at the right time continues to challenge many organizations. Manual processes and limited integration with legacy systems often result in over-privileged accounts, compliance risks, and security vulnerabilities.

    Autonomous, Host-Native Provisioning

    Welford IAG addresses this challenge by fully abstracting manual access provisioning across all host systems — including legacy applications, cloud platforms, directory services, Linux operating systems, and databases. Access rights are automatically provisioned and de-provisioned through policy-driven workflows, removing the need for system administrator involvement between approval and entitlement enforcement.

    Deterministic fulfilment: Each approval maps to precise host changes, then expires on schedule or signal—eliminating standing privileges and missed revokes.

    JIT + Zero Trust by Design

    Built on the principles of Just-In-Time Access and Zero Trust, Welford IAG ensures access is granted only when required, for the shortest necessary duration, and with continuous verification. With role-based access control (RBAC), automated de-provisioning, and streamlined access reviews, it helps organizations stay secure, compliant, and operationally efficient.

    • No standing privilege: short-lived, purpose-bound grants.
    • Policy-driven workflows: risk-aware approvals with full audit trail.
    • Automatic revoke: entitlement removal at source, on time.
