FAQs

Veza is an identity security posture management tool, primarily for access visibility. It uses an access graph to show you who has what permissions in your cloud infrastructure. ConductorOne is an end-to-end identity governance and administration (IGA) platform. We provide not only an access graph for visibility but also the complete access control solution (like automated access certification, entitlement management, and remediation) to act on that information.

A zero trust cybersecurity model requires enforcing least privilege. While Veza can help identify over-privileged access, ConductorOne solves it. We are a complete identity security platform with built-in privileged access management (PAM) functions, enabling just-in-time (JIT) access. This grants users temporary, approved access to critical SaaS apps and infrastructure, a core security needs function that visibility-only tools lack.

ConductorOne is a modern, cloud-native platform built to manage complex, hybrid environments. Unlike Veza or legacy identity and access management vendors like SailPoint, Saviynt, IBM, or Oracle, ConductorOne provides a unified solution. It integrates seamlessly with your IDP (like Okta), your Microsoft Azure environment, and your on-prem apps to manage the full identity lifecycle management for all human, non-human identities, and machine identities.

ConductorOne automates critical compliance tasks. It provides automated campaigns and a complete, auditable trail for all access governance decision-making. This simplifies demonstrating compliance for regulations in sectors like healthcare (HIPAA) or for startups needing to pass audits. This automated identity governance is a core capability, not just a feature.

ConductorOne automates the full identity lifecycle management process. It handles user provisioning when a user joins, manages user roles and access rights based on RBAC policies, and, critically, ensures complete deprovisioning of all user accounts when they leave. For compliance, it automates access certification (reviews) in a user-friendly way (for example, through Slack or Teams), ensuring you can prove to auditors that all user identities have the appropriate access and meet regulatory requirements.
