Manage and Monitor Access Review Campaigns with Oracle Access Governance

Introduction

Oracle Access Governance addresses the growing challenges security owners face in dealing with the increase in advanced security threats and regulations. This cloud-native solution helps meet governance and compliance requirements across many applications, workloads, infrastructures, and identity platforms. One of the key features of Oracle Access Governance is Access Review Campaigns.

Access Review Campaigns are run on-demand, and comprise a group of access reviews for members of your enterprise population where individual access to a specific source is checked and either certified or remediated. If you are logged in as a user with the Access Governance Administrator application role, or are the campaign owner, you can monitor and manage access review campaigns using the Oracle Access Governance Console.
