Use Case: Certify User Privileges Following an Acquisition

New users and resources are added to the model configuration following an acquisition. Administrators run a certification to verify that the privileges assigned to these new users are appropriate.

The stages of the certification are as follows:

1. The role engineer creates a certification that certifies user entitlements. The role engineer defines user attribute filters that limit the scope of the certification to the new employees. A member list maps managers to the new users and resources.
2. Each manager reviews the privileges assigned to their workers. For example, Bob Smith reviews the privileges given to Hector Torres, and suggests access to a database that Hector needs in his new position.
3. CA GovernanceMinder sends an email to Deepak Chamarti, the owner of the database. Deepak approves the change, and CA GovernanceMinder updates the configuration file. Hector Torres now can access the database.
