Traditional IAM and IGA systems are designed primarily for human users and depend on manual onboarding and integration for each application - connectors, schema mapping, entitlement catalogs, and role modeling. Many applications never make it that far. Meanwhile, non-human identities (NHIs): service accounts, bots, APIs, and agent-AI processes are natively ungoverned, operating outside standard IAM frameworks and often without ownership, visibility, or lifecycle controls.

SailPoint has announced new integrations with the CrowdStrike Falcon platform to connect identity governance with endpoint security. The integrations enable shared data and automated workflows between identity and security systems to help organisations respond faster to identity-based threats. The integrations connect SailPoint's Identity Security Cloud with multiple Falcon platform components, including Falcon Next-Gen Identity Security, Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, and Falcon Fusion SOAR, now part of CrowdStrike Charlotte AI.

Identity security fabric (ISF) is a unified architectural framework that brings together disparate identity capabilities. Through ISF, identity governance and administration (IGA), access management (AM), privileged access management (PAM), and identity threat detection and response (ITDR) are all integrated into a single, cohesive control plane. Building on Gartner's definition of " identity fabric," identity security fabric takes a more proactive approach, securing all identity types (human, machine, and AI agents) across on-prem, hybrid, multi-cloud, and complex IT environments.
