  5. Execute Remediation

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 54a7988. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • docs.saviyntcloud.com
    • saviynt.com
    • oxfordcomputergroup.com
    • isaca.org

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • SAVIYNT_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Performing Access Recertification With Saviynt loads about 2.8k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 105 tokens; SKILL.md has 719 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~105
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.8k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Performing Access Recertification with Saviynt

Overview

Access recertification (also called access certification or access review) is a periodic process where designated reviewers validate that users have appropriate access to systems and data. Saviynt Enterprise Identity Cloud (EIC) automates this process through certification campaigns that present reviewers with current access assignments and collect approve/revoke/conditionally-certify decisions. Campaigns can be triggered on schedule (quarterly, semi-annually), event-driven (department transfer, role change), or on-demand. Saviynt provides intelligence features including risk scoring, usage analytics, and peer-group analysis to help reviewers make informed decisions.

When to Use

  • When conducting security assessments that involve performing access recertification with saviynt
  • When following incident response procedures for related security events
  • When performing scheduled security testing or auditing activities
  • When validating security controls through hands-on testing

Prerequisites

  • Saviynt Enterprise Identity Cloud (EIC) tenant with admin access
  • Identity data synchronized from authoritative sources (HR, AD, cloud)
  • Entitlement data imported from target applications
  • Certifier roles assigned (managers, application owners, data owners)
  • Campaign templates defined for each certification type

Workflow

Step 1: Configure Campaign Template

In Saviynt Admin Console:

  1. Navigate to Certifications > Campaign > Create New Campaign
  2. Define campaign parameters:
ParameterValue
Campaign NameQ1 2025 Manager Access Review
Campaign TypeUser Manager
DescriptionQuarterly review of all user access
Certifier TypeManager (dynamic - user's direct manager)
Secondary CertifierApplication Owner (fallback if manager unavailable)
Due Date14 days from launch
Reminder ScheduleDay 7, Day 10, Day 13
EscalationAuto-revoke on Day 15 if no decision
  1. Configure scope filters:

    • Include: All active users
    • Exclude: Service accounts, break-glass accounts
    • Application filter: All connected applications
  2. Configure intelligence features:

    • Enable risk scoring (high-risk entitlements highlighted)
    • Enable usage data (last access date shown)
    • Enable peer analysis (compare access to peer group)
    • Enable SoD violation flagging
Show full SKILL.md (302 more words)Show less
Step 2: Configure Certifier Experience

Customize what certifiers see during the review:

Columns Displayed:

  • User name and title
  • Application name
  • Entitlement/role name
  • Risk score (1-10)
  • Last access date
  • Peer group comparison (% of peers with same access)
  • SoD violation flag

Decision Options:

  • Certify with justification (free text)
  • Revoke with reason (dropdown: no longer needed, SoD conflict, role change)
  • Conditionally certify with expiry date

Bulk Actions:

  • Certify all low-risk items
  • Revoke all items not accessed in 90+ days
  • Filter by application, risk level, or SoD status
Step 3: Launch Campaign via API
python
import requests

SAVIYNT_URL = "https://tenant.saviyntcloud.com"
SAVIYNT_TOKEN = "your-api-token"

def create_certification_campaign(campaign_config):
    """Create and launch a Saviynt certification campaign."""
    headers = {
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {SAVIYNT_TOKEN}",
        "Content-Type": "application/json"
    }

    # Create campaign
    response = requests.post(
        f"{SAVIYNT_URL}/ECM/api/v5/createCampaign",
        headers=headers,
        json={
            "campaignname": campaign_config["name"],
            "campaigntype": campaign_config["type"],
            "description": campaign_config["description"],
            "certifier": campaign_config["certifier_type"],
            "duedate": campaign_config["due_date"],
            "reminderdays": campaign_config["reminder_days"],
            "autorevoke": campaign_config.get("auto_revoke", True),
            "autorevokedays": campaign_config.get("auto_revoke_days", 15),
            "scope": campaign_config.get("scope", {}),
        }
    )
    response.raise_for_status()
    campaign_id = response.json().get("campaignId")

    # Launch campaign
    launch_response = requests.post(
        f"{SAVIYNT_URL}/ECM/api/v5/launchCampaign",
        headers=headers,
        json={"campaignId": campaign_id}
    )
    launch_response.raise_for_status()

    return {
        "campaign_id": campaign_id,
        "status": "launched",
        "certifications_created": launch_response.json().get("certificationCount", 0)
    }

def get_campaign_status(campaign_id):
    """Get current status and progress of a campaign."""
    headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {SAVIYNT_TOKEN}"}
    response = requests.get(
        f"{SAVIYNT_URL}/ECM/api/v5/getCampaignDetails",
        headers=headers,
        params={"campaignId": campaign_id}
    )
    response.raise_for_status()
    data = response.json()

    return {
        "campaign_id": campaign_id,
        "status": data.get("status"),
        "total_items": data.get("totalLineItems", 0),
        "certified": data.get("certifiedCount", 0),
        "revoked": data.get("revokedCount", 0),
        "pending": data.get("pendingCount", 0),
        "completion_rate": data.get("completionPercentage", 0),
    }
Step 4: Monitor Campaign Progress

Track certification progress and send escalations:

  • Dashboard: Saviynt provides real-time campaign dashboard with completion rates
  • Reminders: Automatic email reminders at configured intervals
  • Escalation: If certifier does not respond by due date, escalate to manager's manager or auto-revoke
  • Delegation: Allow certifiers to delegate specific items to application owners
Step 5: Execute Remediation

After campaign closes:

  1. Auto-Remediation: Saviynt automatically creates provisioning tasks to revoke denied access
  2. Ticket Integration: Revocation tasks create tickets in ServiceNow/Jira for tracking
  3. Grace Period: Configure a grace period (e.g., 5 business days) before access is actually removed
  4. Verification: After revocation, verify access is removed from target systems
  5. Audit Trail: All decisions, revocations, and remediations logged for compliance evidence

Validation Checklist

  • Campaign templates configured for each certification type
  • Certifier roles assigned (managers, app owners, data owners)
  • Risk scoring and usage analytics enabled
  • SoD violation detection configured
  • Reminder and escalation schedules defined
  • Auto-revoke policy for non-responsive certifiers configured
