Fit platform access into the controls your enterprise already uses.
Enterprise adoption requires the platform to operate within established identity, access, security, and governance expectations.
Platform access should look like the rest of your enterprise access.
Identity & Enterprise Integration defines and implements the supported connections between Applied SAFe® Platform and the customer's enterprise identity and access environment.
Establish secure and manageable access to the platform that aligns with the customer's enterprise controls.
Identity, access, and the boundaries between them.
- User identity

- Administrator access
- Authorization concepts
- Organizational roles
- Enterprise identity-provider integration
- Access boundaries
- Connector authorization
- Environment separation
- Enterprise security requirements
Five steps from enterprise requirements to validated access.
Understand enterprise requirements
Review the customer's identity, access, and security expectations relevant to the platform.
Map platform roles and access
Determine how platform access maps to organizational responsibilities.
Configure supported identity integration
Implement the appropriate supported authentication and enterprise integration model.
Configure connector authorization
Establish access for connected repositories and systems using the required enterprise mechanisms.
Validate access scenarios
Test representative user, administrator, and integration access paths.
- Identity and access design
- Platform-role mappings
- Configured supported integrations
- Connector authorization model
- Validation results
- Administration guidance
- Use the identity controls the enterprise already operates.
- Map platform access to real organizational responsibility.
- Make connector authorization explicit rather than incidental.
- Validate the access paths that actually get used.
Identity and deployment constraints are usually decided together.
