During reconciliation cycles in Identity Panel, the platform performs a comprehensive review of current entitlements (access rights or permissions) across connected systems to ensure they match the expected, authorized state. If an entitlement has been marked as revoked—for example, because a user's role has changed or an access review identified it as inappropriate—Identity Panel checks whether that access has been successfully removed from the target system.
Automated Remediation Triggers
If a revoked entitlement still exists during the next reconciliation cycle, Identity Panel automatically flags this as a policy violation. It then triggers additional remediation actions, which may include:
-
Generating a Panel Action to re-attempt removal of the entitlement
-
Raising a workflow that can alert administrators or escalate the issue
-
Updating audit and compliance logs to reflect the continued unauthorized access
-
Recalculating join values or attribute flows to reassert proper state across systems
These responses are driven by the synchronization engine (HyperSync Panel), which applies rules to maintain a "desired state" for each user or object. If discrepancies are found, such as lingering entitlements, the system takes action to correct them based on preconfigured policies.
State-Based Enforcement with Continuous Verification
Unlike event-driven systems that react only once to a trigger, Identity Panel uses state-based synchronization. This means it continuously compares the current state of identity objects with the expected state defined in rules and policies. If any object deviates—such as a user retaining an entitlement they shouldn’t have—the system will keep attempting correction until alignment is achieved.
This persistent approach is especially effective in environments where manual changes or system failures might otherwise go undetected.
