Identity Atlas

Permissions are scattered across dozens of systems. You can't see who really has access to what, who used it last, or which identities were never reviewed.

Most organizations operate with authorization data siloed in Active Directory, Entra ID, SAP, SharePoint, DevOps, and a dozen more systems — each with its own data model, no shared history, and no way to answer the question "what can this person actually do?"

Identity Atlas solves this by pulling authorization data from every connected system into a unified PostgreSQL data model with full audit history. It runs as a Docker stack and provides a role mining web UI for analysts and LLM-assisted risk scoring for security teams — all configurable from the browser.

Three Core Capabilities

Unified Data Model

Every system's permissions land in the same schema: Systems → Resources → ResourceAssignments → Principals. Business roles, directory roles, app roles, SharePoint site permissions, and SAP authorizations all map to the same tables.

  • Audit triggers capture the full change history — query any table's changes over time via the shared _history table
  • Data from Entra ID syncs via the Microsoft Graph API; any other system imports via CSV
  • Schema evolves automatically as new attributes appear; no manual migrations needed

Role Mining UI

A React web application bundled into the Docker stack gives analysts an interactive permission matrix, entity detail pages, and governance dashboards.

  • Permission Matrix: rows are users/principals, columns are business roles — colored by access package or governed assignment, with direct/indirect/eligible membership badges
  • Entity Detail Pages: click any user, group, resource, or business role to see all attributes, current memberships, and a version history diff
  • Certifications and Reviews: track access review decisions, approval timelines, and pending requests
  • IST vs SOLL: filter the matrix to show unmanaged (IST) or governed (SOLL) assignments

Identity Risk Scoring

A 4-layer scoring engine that classifies principals by risk without sending sensitive identity data to any external service.

  • Phase 1 (LLM-assisted): discovers organizational context from public domain information only — no identity data leaves your environment
  • Phase 2 (local): generates industry-specific regex classifiers tuned to your organization
  • Phase 3 (local): scores every principal via direct match → membership analysis → structural hygiene → cross-entity propagation
  • AI agent detection: automatically identifies Copilot Studio agents, managed identities, workload identities, and other non-human principals
  • Analyst overrides: humans-in-the-loop score adjustments (−50 to +50) with mandatory reasoning, stored with full audit trail

Supported Source Systems

System How it connects What it syncs
Entra ID / Azure AD Microsoft Graph API (service principal) Users, groups, directory roles, app roles, business roles (access packages), PIM eligibility, access reviews
Omada Identity CSV export Business roles, governed assignments, certifications
SailPoint CSV export Access profiles, entitlements, access requests, certifications
SAP / Pathlock CSV export Roles, authorizations, principals
SharePoint CSV export Site permissions, resource assignments
Any system CSV import via the CSV crawler Systems, principals, resources, assignments, identities, certifications

Entra ID is the reference implementation

The Graph API connector is the most feature-complete integration and is the primary path for Microsoft 365 environments. All other systems use the CSV import path, which supports the same unified data model.

Quick Install

Prerequisite: Docker.

# Download the compose file and environment template
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Fortigi/IdentityAtlas/main/docker-compose.prod.yml
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Fortigi/IdentityAtlas/main/setup/config/.env.example

# Create your .env file (defaults are fine for local evaluation)
cp .env.example .env

# Start the stack (--pull always fetches the newest :latest from the registry)
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --pull always

Open http://localhost:3001 → click "Load Demo Data" for instant gratification, or "Connect Entra ID" to wire up your own tenant via the in-browser wizard.
