Identity Security migration:
43,000 identities, zero gaps.
A financial-services firm had run SailPoint IdentityIQ on-premise for years, with around 43,000 identities and a connector estate that had grown with it. Incipient placed senior identity-governance capability that re-engineered the environment for a cloud-native model and moved it to Identity Security Cloud with zero provisioning gaps.

On-prem identity, four upgrade events a year.
The on-prem estate cost real money to maintain and made every upgrade an event, with four major ones a year. The firm wanted to move to Identity Security Cloud, but the connectors, custom workflows and certification processes were all tied to on-prem infrastructure.
It needed a partner to re-engineer them for a cloud-native model rather than recreate the constraints, and to do it without a single provisioning gap, because in an identity estate a gap is a security incident, not a delay.

Re-engineered, not lifted and shifted.
Incipient placed senior identity-governance capability to lead the migration from on-premise SailPoint IdentityIQ to SailPoint Identity Security Cloud, rebuilding the pieces that were tied to on-prem rather than carrying them across.
- Re-mapped 186 sources and applications across 214 connectors to cloud-native SaaS capability
- Re-engineered 168 custom workflows and 22 certification campaigns rather than carrying the on-prem design across
- Validated the migration of 43,000 identities with roles, entitlements and access history intact
- Maintained provisioning and de-provisioning continuity through a 12-hour cutover with zero gaps
- Strengthened audit readiness through cloud-native reporting and certification
Cloud-native identity, no gaps, faster certs.
All 43,000 identities were migrated and validated with zero provisioning or de-provisioning gaps through the cutover.
Four annual upgrade events were eliminated, which reclaimed roughly 1,100 admin hours a year. The access-certification campaign dropped from 21 days to 6, and 14 open audit findings were closed.
