What's inside
Identity governance systems control what systems a worker can access, but they cannot verify who is actually behind the keyboard. This leaves organizations vulnerable to credential sharing, fake hires, and help desk social engineering when permissions are granted without proof of real-world identity.
1Kosmos integrates document-based identity proofing and biometric liveness checks directly into SailPoint Identity Security Cloud to verify every user before provisioning begins.
Learn how the 1Kosmos integration for SailPoint:
Embeds identity verification natively into standard SailPoint joiner workflows with no custom development
Confirms the physical identity of new hires and contractors before granting system access or entitlements
Automates verification outcomes directly back to SailPoint to drive instant provisioning or manual review queues
Matches scanned government credentials against SailPoint identity attributes to ensure data consistency
Leverages customizable verification requirements including document type, biometrics, and liveness checks
Access governance is incomplete without identity trust
Traditional identity governance and administration platforms manage entitlements and security roles, which verifies whether a credential should have access. The open gap is whether the person holding that credential is the authorized user.
1Kosmos injects identity verification into SailPoint, so every entitlement ties back to a verified person.
New joiners complete a secure, self-service verification on their own device in under two minutes. Real-world identity is biometrically matched to a government-issued document before SailPoint initiates provisioning, eliminating the risk of unauthorized access on day one.
Close the onboarding gaps that credentials leave open
Contractors who bypass standard background checks
Out-of-state remote hires who are never verified in person
Attackers who intercept credentials during initial onboarding
Help desk agents who reset access without proof of physical identity
These security gaps occur at the critical transition between identity creation and day-one access.
By embedding 1Kosmos identity verification inside SailPoint Workflow Builder, organizations secure this vulnerable handoff. The integration deploys in weeks using standard HTTP Request nodes, allowing security teams to enforce biometrically backed identity assurance across all access-governance decisions.
