Problem
Simplifying Identity Correlation with Fusion Connector
Many organizations struggle with managing duplicate identities across authoritative sources, leading to inefficiencies and security risks. Today, customers manually match identities based on attributes—a time-consuming and error-prone process. Fusion connector streamlines this by intelligently detecting potential duplicate identities and providing the flexibility to merge them or create a new, unified identity. This automation reduces manual effort, enhances data accuracy, and strengthens identity governance, ultimately improving operational efficiency and security.
Solution
Fusion Connector: Intelligent Identity Matching & Duplication Prevention
The Fusion Connector streamlines identity correlation by intelligently detecting and resolving duplicate identities before they are created in downstream systems. By aggregating data from multiple authoritative sources, Fusion applies advanced matching logic to identify potential duplicates based on attributes like first name, last name, and email.
When a potential match is detected, the system generates a custom ISC form and notifies designated reviewers to assess and confirm the identity match. Based on their decision, accounts can either be merged into an existing identity or assigned a new unique ID—ensuring data accuracy, reducing manual reconciliation efforts, and improving overall identity governance.
This proactive approach stops duplicate identities at the front door, preventing manual cleanup later and freeing up valuable IT and security resources.
- Once additional authoritative source is added to the connector, aggregation task will need to run in order to review the potential matches. If there are any potential matches, then reviewer for that source will receive an email similar to screen shot below.
- Identity Match Form: The custom ISC form is dynamically generated for each potential identity match. At the top, it displays data from the source that the system identifies as a possible match to an existing identity within the platform. All data attributes on the form are fully customizable and configured within the connector. The existing identities dropdown lists all potential matches, displaying their corresponding data on the right and a weighted match score at the bottom. If no match is found, there is an option to designate the entry as a new identity instead.Once the reviewer evaluates the information and confirms a match, they can submit the form for processing. Upon submission, the Fusion connector merges the identities ensuring accurate identity management and eliminating duplicates.
