Ownership
Every finding gets an accountable owner
Surf resolves the accountable human for each access risk from identity, HR, code, and on-call context, so nothing waits in an unowned queue.
Access risks are visible. Cleaning them up is the work.
Okta shows dormant accounts, over-provisioned roles, and access that should have been removed. Acting on any of it means knowing whose access it is, whether removing it breaks a workflow, and getting the change approved.
That is manual, so risky access lingers and the list of access findings only grows. Every joiner, mover, and leaver adds more. Without a closed loop, identity hygiene decays between certification cycles and the backlog of stale access never really shrinks.
What changes
Ownership
Surf resolves the accountable human for each access risk from identity, HR, code, and on-call context, so nothing waits in an unowned queue.
Closure
Surf drives each access risk to a verified fix and writes the outcome back, turning a ticket into a closed, recorded loop.
Backlog
Recurring issues are fixed at the source and stop coming back, so hygiene improves and holds instead of resetting each cycle.
How it works
Ingest
Okta findings flow into Surf with full context, so every issue enters the loop ready to act on rather than waiting in a queue.
Resolve
The Context Graph names the accountable owner and compliance scope, and availability across identity, HR, cloud, code, and IT systems.
Close
The owner gets a one-tap action. One approval drives the fix through your change workflow, and Surf writes the verified outcome back to Okta.
All of it runs inside the Context Graph, a continuously updated knowledge graph that links identity, cloud, code, HR, and IT systems.
Context Graph
A person or service is scattered across identity, HR, code, and cloud systems under different handles. The Context Graph resolves them into one subject, so ownership points to a real, accountable human even when the record is stale.
Before recommending action, Surf simulates downstream impact across services, entitlements, and data access, so teams know what a fix will and will not break, and which option is safest.
Regulated scope, change-approval rules, and policy are properties of every node, resolved alongside ownership rather than chased separately.
Leave status, on-call schedules, and identity activity determine who can act, not just who is listed as the owner on paper.
Surf writes remediation outcomes back to Okta with action and approver, so the finding becomes a verified closure with a complete audit trail on both sides.
Because the graph spans identity, HR, ITSM, and SaaS, Surf assigns an accountable owner even when a finding never maps to a cloud asset, the cross-domain reach most remediation tools lack.
