What is a pattern?
A Bravura Pattern is a reference implementation of Bravura Security Fabric – a collection of scripts and components used to implement a set of identity and access management business processes for a specific type of organization. These components were designed around a multitude of common use cases, and provide an easily configurable method to implement these use cases. Bravura Security offers multiple editions of Bravura Pattern.
Bravura Pattern reference implementations are built from a number of process-driven scripts, which are typically controlled by a SQLite database accessible via the Manage external data store (DBE) module.
Bravura Security Fabric administrators can populate tables in the database to dictate the logic Bravura Security Fabric will apply when running a specific component.
Bravura Pattern is composed of inter-dependent components, which can be deployed individually when a full reference implementation is not appropriate. By installing these components together in the form of a reference implementation you are providing all the needed functionality to run specific business cases that you would otherwise have to research and install, and configure the necessary individual components.
The following editions are currently available:
Bravura Workforce Pattern
Bravura Workforce Pattern is a rapid deployment feature that can reduce implementation time by up to 75% by automating typical identity life cycle management requirements. Bravura Workforce Pattern reduces scripting for complex business logic such as SoR (system of record) onboarding. Initial and ongoing configuration of Identity Management is greatly minimized to lower costs and deployment time.
Patterns that are relevant for Bravura Workforce Pattern are:
RefBuild.im_corporate- reference implementation installs and configures the components used to implement common corporate user management scenariosRefBuild.im_corporate_functional- provides dependancy list for functional components needed for Bravura Workforce Pattern .RefBuild.im_corporate_scenario- provides dependancy list for scenario components needed for Bravura Workforce Pattern business cases.
Additional related patterns for Bravura Workforce Pattern are:
Refbuild.im_pm_demo- similar to the functionality of RefBuild.im_corporate, but includes additional targets, user classes and roles that may be needed for larger implementations or for sales engineering demos
See Bravura Workforce Pattern for configuration details.
Bravura Privilege Pattern
Bravura Privilege Pattern is a set of pre-defined policies and business rules built around Bravura Privilege, designed to simplify control over access to privileged accounts and security groups across a variety of systems.
Bravura Privilege Pattern incorporates two major components:
Policy rules that determine:
What privileged accounts and groups are visible to requesters.
Whether access is auto-approved or requires workflow approval.
Who has the responsibility to approve one-time access.
What disclosure mechanisms to offer users who have checked out access.
Whether to record user activity and what data streams to capture.
How to assign risk to access requests.
A delegated, team-based model for onboarding systems and accounts and for controlling visibility, pre-authorized access, approval workflows, disclosure methods and session monitoring.
Patterns included for Bravura Privilege Pattern are:
RefBuild.pam_request_risk_assessment- provides configuration for implementing risk management calculations to determine appropriate workflowRefBuild.pam_team_management- provides configuration for both system onboarding and vault managementRefBuild.pam_team_onboard_management- provides configuration for system onboarding onlyRefBuild.pam_team_vault_management- provides configuration for vault management only
