Application Onboarding

Application Onboarding for Modern IGA

AI Supported Application Onboarding that Standardizes Access Data, Accelerates IGA Projects, and Embeds Governance from Day One.

Why Traditional Application Onboarding Fails in Modern IAM

Application onboarding is still dominated by manual work. IAM teams, system integrators, and managed service providers depend on application owners to deliver accurate, complete access information, but the data is scattered, outdated, or locked in silos.

Collecting entitlement lists, technical details, system attributes, and role information consumes weeks. Spreadsheets and wikis introduce errors, creating rework and delaying go-lives.

In regulated industries the stakes are higher. Frameworks like DORA, BAIT, VAIT, SOX, and GDPR expect complete, current, and audit-ready documentation, including IGA Governance Docs as part of the overall access model. Most organizations lack a structured onboarding process to meet these demands reliably.

From Fragmentation to Flow: Structured Application Onboarding with NEXIS 4

NEXIS 4 transforms application onboarding into a clear, AI supported workflow. All relevant information from application owners, IT teams, and existing documentation is consolidated, validated, and structured in one place. The defined access model flows directly into the IGA platform.  

NEXIS 4 delivers an integrated onboarding experience built on:

  • Standardized templates for access and entitlement data 
  • AI assisted information extraction and validation
  • Automated SoD and risk checks
  • Seamless integration into IGA and existing IAM stacks 

Core Capabilities for Scalable, Compliant Application Onboarding

AI Supported Information Gathering

Upload specifications, user stories, or Confluence pages. AI extracts entitlement data, ownership, access paths, and technical details. Application owners validate instead of rebuilding information manually.

Template Based IAM Governance Docs

Standardized templates capture business context, entitlement catalogs, criticality, SoD constraints, and regulatory attributes. Complexity adapts to each application, from simple SaaS tools to high-risk core systems.

Integrated SoD and Risk Controls

SoD rules and risk criteria apply automatically. Toxic combinations, excessive entitlements, and high-risk patterns are detected early.

NICO - NEXIS Intelligent Co Pilot

NICO guides application owners and IAM teams with anomaly detection and clear recommendations. Peer-group comparison improves quality and consistency across the application portfolio.

End to End Integration with IGA

Approved access models such as roles, entitlements, and attributes flow directly into the IGA platform. Updates follow governed workflows and recertification cycles.

From Documentation to Deployment – A Structured Onboarding Workflow

Every version remains audit ready, including historic snapshots that show how access changed over time.
