Tracking Configuration Changes in the Identity Panel Suite

Identity Panel provides robust tools to ensure that all configuration changes within the identity governance and administration (IGA) environment are fully recorded. This capability supports compliance, security, and operational oversight by maintaining a continuous audit trail of who changed what, when, and why.

At the heart of this capability is Identity Panel’s Continuous History feature, which captures every change to configuration and identity data across the suite. Whether settings are updated in Identity Panel, workflows adjusted in HyperSync Panel, or access policies modified in Access Panel, these changes are automatically timestamped and preserved for review through the Time Traveler interface​.

How Configuration Changes Are Tracked

Changes to the configuration of the Identity Panel Suite are captured in real time and retained historically for audit purposes. The key features include:

• Automatic Change Detection: Configuration changes are detected and recorded during scheduled scans or upon save operations in the interface.

• Time Traveler: This built-in tool allows administrators to view the full historical record of changes to configuration and identity objects, comparing past and current values at any point in time​.

• Audit-Friendly Storage: All configuration history is stored securely and is accessible for compliance audits, internal reviews, or troubleshooting.

• Panel Actions: Any configuration change that results in a writeback to a connected system—such as updates to user attributes or group membership—is logged as a Panel Action, with a full record of the intended action and outcome​.

Benefits for Governance and Compliance

By ensuring that all configuration changes are recorded and viewable, the Identity Panel Suite supports key compliance and governance requirements, including:

• Regulatory audits and access certification

• Internal change control and ITIL practices

• Risk mitigation through accountability and visibility

• Faster troubleshooting of misconfigurations or unauthorized changes

In summary, the Identity Panel Suite provides automated, continuous tracking of configuration changes across your identity management environment—enhancing compliance, reducing risk, and supporting governance best practices.
