CORTEX PULSE manages User access provisioning, access review campaigns & elevated firefighter sessions across your enterprise SAP landscape
Cortex PULSE bridges the gap between automated provisioning and continuous compliance!
Transforming Identity & Access Governance
PULSE serves as the dynamic core of your SAP identity management. We understand that relying on manual spreadsheet reviews and disjointed processes leaves your organisation exposed to human error, compliance breaches, and escalating administration costs. PULSE replaces these outdated methods with a heavily audited, automated workflow designed to protect your margins and eliminate the chaos of manual tracking.
Our core mission is clear: we provide expertly customised, secure solutions that drive smart cost reductions, defend against risk, and enhance governance to deliver rapid, fully compliant audit results. PULSE embodies this mission by completely transforming how your business handles the joiner, mover, and leaver lifecycle, ensuring your system access remains precise and inherently secure from day one.
Action-Driven Workflows & Intelligent Automation
PULSE, built to safeguard IT margins and support you in maintaining an audit-ready footprint.
Securing the Complete Access Lifecycle
Streamlining Access Provisioning ensures effortless, secure delivery of system permissions across the complete identity lifecycle. PULSE replaces static forms with an action-driven request engine supporting user creation, role assignment, account locking, and secure password resets. A sequential provisioning worker purposefully halts at the first failure to prevent cascading system errors, while secure credential dispatch auto-generates initial passwords via native SAP interfaces without ever storing sensitive data in audit logs.
Automating Routine Access Reviews empowers administrators to architect granular approval chains featuring configurable quorums, automated escalations, and mandatory justification enforcement. This guarantees complete audit transparency for every submission or rejection. By mandating comprehensive business justifications and forcing explicit approver commentary for any rejection, PULSE secures a flawless, immutable audit trail.
Managing Elevated Access Provisioning (Firefighter) securely grants the temporary, elevated permissions needed for critical production issues, such as S/4HANA downtime. PULSE supports both ID-based and Role-based deployment models governed by strict duration limits, default active minutes, and maximum usage thresholds. Crucially, it enforces absolute segregation of duties between the session Controller who approves the access and the Reviewer who audits the post-session activity down to the exact transaction code level.
Enterprise Configuration and Lifecycle Tracking empowers end-users with a self-service dashboard to monitor the real-time status of their submissions. They can easily distinguish approval delays from target system failures and proactively withdraw access if it is no longer required. Centralised master data mapping governs line manager mappings, risk definitions, and role owner assignments to completely eliminate “orphaned” or unassigned access requests.
Utilising the Audit Assistant and Security Advisor, your teams can generate instant, audit-ready summaries of active role permissions. Forensic grid editing accelerates updates and automatically logs precise before-and-after values in the system’s core audit ledger. Embedded system intelligence allows security teams to systematically identify and surgically prune dormant permissions lying across your environment, protecting administration teams from burnout while maintaining strict security segmentation.
