Identity Collision and Resolution

Hi all,

We are working with a customer where they have 3 user sources and the user can exist in one or more sources as well. They are currently using SecZetta to perform Identity Collision and Resolution based on  a number of parameters including weightage etc. and generate a unique identifier for each human identity and send a file for Saviynt to consume. 

Is there a solution which we can use to replace SecZetta other than a custom solution (We know that we could solution a custom jar that can do the same steps as SecZetta doing now but managing that would be difficult).

What is the best approach to implement this in Saviynt? Does Identity Match and Merge help with this? Does that allow deduplication automatically or someone ahs to manually review to perform match and merge?

Hello @shibinvpkvr,

Prior to version 2021.x, merging user data could only be accomplished through the use of a custom jar.
However, with the introduction of Saviynt's Identity Match and Merge (IMM) feature in version 2021. x and beyond, there is now an alternative solution for identity deduplication and merging. Utilizing a set of predefined matching rules within Saviynt, IMM is capable of matching and merging user identities.

@sudeshjaiswal Thanks. Yes I am aware of Identity Match and Merge (IMM) feature. Could you please let me know if this is fully automated or still someone needs to manually review the conflicts and resolve?

Hello @shibinvpkvr,

The Identity Match and Merge feature helps to identify and merge duplicate identities in the repository after a manual review.

You can refer to the below document :
