Identity 360 Essentials

Identity 360 offers robust tools for managing and analyzing your organization's identity data to allow you to make informed security decisions.

Identity 360 offers three powerful search options to help you find the exact information you need:

  • Global Search Query Builder

    • Enables complex, precise searches using specific properties and relational queries

    • Ideal for power users and detailed analysis

    • Example: Find all accounts that are members of the "identities that have accounts belonging to a specific group" or "identities with high-risk entitlements accessed in the last 30 days."

    • Benefits: Allows you to construct precise, multi-layered searches to pinpoint exactly the data you need.

    For complete information on how to use this query builder, see the Global Search Quick Reference Guide.

  • Natural Language Processing (NLP) Search

    • Simply type your request in plain English

    • The system intelligently interprets your intent and converts it into a structured query

    • Example: "Show me all inactive user accounts in the Marketing department"

    • Benefits: User-friendly, requires no query syntax knowledge, great for quick ad-hoc searches

  • Simple Search

    • Fast, straightforward text-based search for immediate results

    • Perfect for finding specific identities or simple lookups

    • Example: Typing a name like "John Smith" or an employee ID

    • Benefits: Instantaneous, ideal for day-to-day operations and quick checks

Each search type caters to different user needs and scenarios, from complex data analysis to quick identity lookups. You can choose the most appropriate search method based on your current task, technical expertise, and the complexity of the information you seek.
