Q2 2024, Version 2.372 (7/01/2024)

Campaigns

Added Ability to Assign a Manager’s Direct Reports to a New Reviewer at One Time

SecurEnds has made it easier to delegate a manager’s direct report reviewers to another reviewer.  We have added “SOR Manager Email” as an option for credential delegation.  When selected, users may search for a manager’s email and then select the direct reports that should be assigned to a new reviewer.  A Credential Delegation Audit Trail will track the delegation.

Navigate to Access Review->Delegation.  Select Credential Delegation in the dropdown and select applications. 

Select SOR Manager Email in the dropdown, then search for a manager and select.  Select direct reports to reassign in the Direct Report dropdown and then enter the new reviewer in Assign Reviewer.  Then click SAVE.

The reviews previously assigned to the manager’s direct reports will now be assigned to the user in Assign Reviewer.

Updated Match Logic

SecurEnds has updated our application match logic to handle specific customer use cases.

When syncing and matching, all credentials will be unassigned and all identities will be terminated when an SOR is disabled.

Emails

Added Optional “Reply To” Field and Header to Email Configuration

We have added the option to set the “Reply To” field as a different address than the login email address.  It will show as a header in all SecurEnds emails.  When “Reply To”, the email will be forwarded to this address.

Navigate to Configuration->Email Settings->Setup

Enter “Reply To” address in Configuration.

Ticketing

Added Ability to Configure Columns in the CSV Sent for Ticketing and Email Provisioning

Improved Display Fields in CSV and Reordered Columns

A new configuration was added to specify which columns should be displayed in the Ticketing and Email CSV attachment. 

Navigate to Administration->Configuration->Ticketing System for Access->Configurations. 

Search for EXCLUDE_COLUMNS_FROM_TICKETING_SYSTEM_ATTACHMENT and select Update in the action gear.

To include all columns, enter No.  To specify columns to include, enter each column header separated by commas. 

In this example, the following columns are excluded:  entitlement description, entitlement DN, notes, termination date, Business justification

The excluded columns are not displayed in the CSV attachment.

For Manager Elections, we will display “App Credential – <credential value>” on the Ticketing and Email CSV attachment.  Columns will be displayed in the following order:

Added a New Configuration to Service Now Ticketing to Pull Assignee from “Display Name”

By default, SecurEnds will pull Assignee from the “Name” field in Service Now.  An option has been added to pull Assignee from the “Display Name” field.  This configuration is in the application property file.  If this change is desired, request a property file change from your Implementation Consultant.

Platform Modernization
