Section III Using IdentityIQ : Advanced Analytics
 
Advanced Analytics
Advanced analytics enable you to create specific queries based on numerous aspects of IdentityIQ. These searches can be used to determine specific areas of risk and create interesting populations of identities.
Search results can be saved for reuse or saved as reports. In some cases, you can save your results as interesting populations of identities. When you save a search as a report, you can schedule the search on an continuous basis for monitoring and tracking purposes. When you save the search criteria as a population, you can use activity monitoring and statistical reporting of identities that fit that criteria in the same way that you use them for groups.
You can access the search page from the navigation menu bar. Go to Intelligence -> Advanced Analytics. Select a Search Type from the drop-down menu and enter the search criteria.
