Why it matters
Control activities that actually stick
Regulators and auditors expect more than policy PDFs. They expect control objectives tied to real processes, evidence collected in systems of record, and repeatable tests. Saviynt IGA becomes the spine where ownership, access, and attestations meet — so compliance is operational, not theatrical.
Integrated control activities with your Compliance department
This approach mirrors how high-performing teams run Saviynt programs: prepare the narrative, design with the business, socialize evidence, then validate in real test cycles — so regulatory requirements become repeatable control activities instead of one-off projects.
Your journey
Four phases from intent to audit-ready controls
Inspired by proven workshop cadences — structured for Saviynt IGA so ownership, evidence, and testing stay aligned.
- 01
Prepare & plan
Anchor the program in real processes and real obligations.
- Review future-state process flows with process owners.
- Identify compliance drivers and audit requirements (SOX, ISO, industry regs).
- Surface business-process risks and candidate control points.
- Define control objectives and control techniques before workshops begin.
- 02
Control design workshop
Align business and IT on what “good” looks like — in one room.
- Confirm process risks and control points with business and IT.
- Validate control objectives against actual workflows and systems.
- Identify additional control requirements and dependencies.
- Produce a concrete action plan for control testing and evidence collection.
- 03
Post-workshop
Turn decisions into artifacts auditors can follow.
- Run working sessions to socialize the controls framework with the business.
- Package deliverables for stakeholders — clear owners, cadence, and scope.
- Author control test scripts mapped to objectives (not generic checklists).
- Complete fit-gap analysis so Saviynt configuration matches the control model.
- 04
Finalize & validate
Prove automated controls in real testing cycles.
- Execute and document tests of automated controls during formal test cycles.
- Trace failures to configuration, data, or ownership — then remediate.
- Finalize and obtain sign-off on fit-gap outcomes and residual risk.
- Lock evidence packages into your IGA and GRC rhythm for the next audit.

Expert insights & pro tips
Short, high-signal guidance — the same bar we set on CISSP Academy callouts.
Expert insight
Tie every test script to a control objective
Generic IT checklists fail audits. When each script names the objective, the population, the evidence source, and the owner, reviewers spend minutes instead of weeks reconstructing intent.
Pro tip
Socialize before you configure
The fastest way to lose trust is to “go live” in Saviynt before the business sees the control story. A short, repeated narrative — risk → control → evidence — prevents shadow processes and rogue spreadsheets.
Expert insight
Treat IGA as the compliance ledger
Certifications, SoD checks, and role definitions are not “IAM chores.” They are the ledger auditors read. When they are current, consistent, and owned, your compliance department spends time on judgment — not archaeology.
