Case Study: Equifax achieves 75% faster access certifications and modernizes IAM with SailPoint Technologies

Equifax Replaces Sun IdM with Next-Generation IAM Solution

Equifax, a global information and credit solutions company with about 7,500 employees across 18 countries, faced the end-of-life of its Sun Identity Manager provisioning system. The company needed a next-generation IAM platform that would enable a smooth migration, reduce operational risk, strengthen compliance and security, and—critically—automate the time-consuming access certification process.

Equifax selected SailPoint IdentityIQ for its integrated governance and provisioning capabilities, closed-loop revocations, role management and HR-driven lifecycle automation. Deployed in early 2012, the solution provisioned access to 300 applications for 7,500 users, cut time spent on access certifications by more than 75%, reduced audit errors, enabled a role-based access model and improved oversight and accountability—resulting in smoother operations and lower audit costs.
