Today we’re excited to announce the addition of access conflicts monitoring and alerts to C1. Customers can now define, monitor, and get automatically notified about separation of duties (SoD) conflicts across their environment.
Ensuring SoD is critical for achieving SOX, FDA 21 CFR Part 11, and ISO 27001 certifications, among others, and companies often enforce internal SoD policies to govern access to sensitive engineering environments, mediate information sharing with vendors, and manage international employees' access to certain systems. But staying on top of access conflicts across applications can be an onerous manual process prone to blind spots and errors. C1’s access conflicts monitoring and alerts make SoD detection proactive and automatic—taking the work out of staying compliant while increasing overall security.
A modern IGA platform#
C1 was built to help bring order to the chaos of modern access environments. In the face of exploding SaaS usage, the shift to distributed work, and an evolving mix of cloud and on-prem systems, understanding and securing who has access to what is no longer a human-level challenge for most companies. Manual processes are inadequate, and legacy identity governance and administration (IGA) solutions—designed for yesterday’s world of on-prem-only systems and workers—aren’t flexible enough to address today’s challenges and pace of innovation.
We launched C1 with automated user access reviews to give companies a flexible, lightweight alternative to manual and outdated governance solutions. The platform delivers the visibility, automation, and configurable policies IT and security teams need to streamline compliance workflows and secure access—no matter how complex their environment is.
With the release of access conflicts monitoring, C1 now offers a complete modern IGA solution that delivers real security and efficiency gains at a fraction of the time and cost investment of legacy IGA platforms.
How access conflicts monitoring works#
To create an access conflicts monitor, customers define two groups of mutually exclusive access. Users who have access to any entitlements in the first group cannot have access to any entitlement in the second group, and vice versa.
When a conflict is detected, customers are automatically notified and can easily resolve or exempt the conflicting access. All access conflicts activity is logged and customers can generate and download a detailed report of the conflict monitor’s alerts, their current state, and all audit log entries to share with auditors and certifiers.

“C1’s Access Conflicts tool helps us easily minimize the risk of misuse when it comes to people having access to things they shouldn’t. It alerts us when there is a conflict and allows us to remediate quickly, as necessary.” — Austin Hirsch, GRC Manager at Deepwatch
