Turn Your Identity Governance Investment Into Business Value
OpenText, Tuesday, November 3rd, 2026
OpenText explains how to get business value from identity governance through clear access review context and verified access removals.
OpenText argues that identity governance software delivers value only when the business participates effectively after rollout.
Access reviews often fail when managers approve permissions they cannot interpret or flag access for removal that is never actually removed.
Using OpenText NetIQ Identity Governance as the example, the post recommends describing permissions in business terms, such as replacing a code like FIN_AP_03 with approve supplier payments up to $25,000.
It also stresses business rules that reflect job changes, verification that approved removals happen and revisiting the program's original goals.
