Solution · Dynamic Group Management
PreviewAutomate group membership and resource collections with ABAC policies—sync populations to Microsoft Entra ID and SAP IAS, scope authorization to dynamic resource sets, and fulfill changes through governed orchestration with Proof Chain evidence.
Collections & Dynamic Group Engine on Identity Fabric
The Collections & Dynamic Group Engine (DGE) keeps external group memberships and resource collections aligned with identity attributes. Administrators define External Sync Policies with ABAC rule expressions; when profiles change, the engine evaluates rules, computes add/remove deltas, and drives fulfillment into target systems. Resource Collections group applications, servers, and other resources for authorization policies—static lists or dynamic rules—so access stays consistent as the estate grows.
Deterministic membership from attributes, with auditability from policy change to fulfilled receipt.
Define which identities belong in an external group (for example Entra ID or SAP IAS) using attribute rules such as country, department, or job code. Preview affected identities before enabling, then let the engine sync membership automatically.
Group resources by type—applications, groups, servers—for authorization scoping. Use static membership or dynamic rules so policies reference collections instead of naming every asset.
Evaluate ABAC rules on policy and identity attribute events, compute membership deltas, and emit governed access directives for orchestrated add/remove operations.
Policy changes and membership operations flow through fulfillment with receipts and proof records—supporting audit, correlation, and separation of duties for policy authors and operators.
From policy definition through governed fulfillment—without manual group edits in target directories.
1
Author External Sync Policies or dynamic Resource Collections with reviewed ABAC expressions in Identity Fabric governance administration.
2
See how many identities or resources match before activation—narrow rules when populations are unexpectedly large.
3
When identity attributes or collection rules change, DGE recomputes membership and determines adds and removals.
4
Orchestration executes target-system operations; Proof Chain captures the path from directive to receipt.
Combine conditions with and/or—equals, in, contains, comparisons, and null checks—against authoritative identity and resource attributes.
Target external groups in cloud identity systems with configured add/remove operations—eliminating manual membership churn for location and role cohorts.
When identity attributes change, DGE recomputes membership. Most updates propagate within a few minutes; higher volume or target API rate limits can extend timing.
Reference Resource Collections in policies so roles like finance analyst access a collection of finance applications—not a brittle list per app.
Mix manually curated resource sets with rule-based collections that expand or contract as attributes change.
Enable, pause, or retire policies with clear behavior; high-impact rules can follow approval workflows before activation.
Automatically maintain an Entra security group for employees where country and department match—e.g. German Helpdesk staff—without ticket-driven group edits.
When department changes, remove old cohort memberships and add new ones so access tracks the current role—not the previous one.
Grant read access to a Finance-Applications collection; new apps added to the collection inherit policy without rewriting every rule.
Identity governance and IT operations teams configure External Sync Policies, Resource Collections, monitoring, and recompute when migrating legacy group membership.
Workforce users can review static vs. dynamic group membership in the Identity Fabric portal (My Access), see which attributes drive dynamic membership, and use standard access requests when an exception is required.
