Limiting attestation objects for recertification

IMPORTANT: In order to customize the User recertification default attestation policy, you must make changes to One Identity Manager objects. Always use a custom copy of the relevant object to make these changes.

All employees saved in the database are recertified using the User recertification attestation policy supplied in One Identity Manager. It may be necessary to limit recertification of new users to a certain group of employees, for example, if only employees in a specific departments should be attested. To do this, you can extend the condition attached to the attestation policy. Create a custom attestation policy for this.

The following objects must be changed so that recertification of users can be carried out with this attestation policy. Always create a copy of the respective object to do this.

  • User recertification attestation policy

  • VI_Attestation_AttestationCase_Person_Approval_Granted process

  • VI_Attestation_AttestationCase_Person_Approval_Dismissed process

IMPORTANT: In order for recertification to run correctly in the Web Portal, the default Certification of users attestation procedure and the default Certification of users approval policy must be assigned to the attestation policy.

The default attestation procedure, the default approval policy, and the default Certification of users approval workflow must not be changed.

To customize default recertification of users

  1. Copy the User recertification attestation policy and customize it.

    Table 61: Attestation policy properties

    Property

    Value

    Attestation procedure

    Certification of users.

    Approval policies

    Certification of users.

    Editing conditions

    Copy the default condition without modification so that the correct attestation object is selected.

    To limit the number of attestation objects, you can add additional partial conditions to the database query.

  2. In the Designer, copy the VI_Attestation_AttestationCase_Person_Approval_Granted process of the AttestationCase base object and customize the copy.

Detailed information about this topic

Mitigating controls

Violation of regulatory requirements can harbor different risks for companies. To evaluate these risks, you can apply risk indexes to attestation policies. These risk indexes provide information about the risk involved for the company if this particular policy is violated. Once the risks have been identified and evaluated, mitigating controls can be implemented.

Mitigating controls are independent on One Identity Manager’s functionality. They are not monitored through One Identity Manager.

Mitigating controls describe controls that are implemented if an attestation rule was violated. The attestation can be approved after the next attestation run, once controls have been applied.

To edit mitigating controls

  • In the Designer, set the QER | CalculateRiskIndex configuration parameter and compile the database.

If you disable the configuration parameter at a later date, model components and scripts that are not longer required, are disabled. SQL procedures and triggers are still carried out. For more information about the behavior of preprocessor relevant configuration parameters and conditional compiling, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

For more information about risk assessment, see the One Identity Manager Risk Assessment Administration Guide.
