Linx is an identity security and governance platform that provides visibility and governance over user access across human, non-human, and agentic identities. By aggregating identity data from HR systems, identity providers, and applications, Linx automatically detects security risks like orphaned accounts, excessive privileges, and offboarding gaps while streamlining access management through intelligent automation and remediation. With AI-powered access profiles, just-in-time access policies, continuous monitoring, and automated workflows, Linx helps security and IT teams reduce risk, ensure compliance, and eliminate manual governance task.

Its features give users:

Modern IGA

Productivity: Offers centralized visibility and governance across all identities, accounts, and entitlements. Enforces scalable access models to reduce manual entitlements, eliminate overprovisioning, and align with least-privilege principles.
Security and compliance: Streamlines compliance with periodic, risk-based access certifications that empower resource owners to validate who has access to what - flagging dormant, excessive, or outdated privileges for removal.

User Access Reviews

Streamlines UARs: Streamlines access reviews scoped to specific users, attributes, and account types, at any time.
Backed by PwC: User access reviews with Linx are certified by PwC for peace of mind.

Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM)

Discover and monitor identity risk: Detect dormant accounts, excessive privileges, weak authentication, orphan and local accounts across Cloud, SaaS and on-prem.
Proactively remediate: Prioritize and resolve identity-based risks based on identity context and telemetry. Automatically remediate identity risks and enforce security policies with identity-centric workflows.

Just-in-Time and Just-Enough Access

Eliminate risk and simplify compliance: Ensure elevated access is granted only to the users who need it, for the duration they need it, when they need it. Proves to auditors and customers that security is taken into account.
Boost productivity: Gives users self-service access request and access approval. Automatically provision and deprovision access granularly and auto-approve JIT access based on conditional policies.

Joiners, Movers, and Leavers (JML)

Identity Lifecycle Management

Streamline identity lifecycle management: Automatically deprovision access when employees leave the organization, effectively eliminating associated security risks and access gaps.
Eliminate risk: Reduce the risk of standing access by migrating standing roles to to temporary, time-bound access. And, detect partially-offboarded and high-risk access and run fully automated remediation workflows.

Non-Human Identity Governance
