Certifications Overview


Certifications allow designated people, such as managers or system owners, to review users’ access to your enterprise systems and data. Certifiers determine whether the access is appropriate for those users or should be revoked.


Certifications improve your data security by reducing inappropriate access and helping you satisfy audit and regulatory requirements.


Each set of reviews is called a certification campaign. Each assigned review is called a certification.
