Transforming Identity Governance in the Academic World: The Success Story of Pontificia UC

In this session, we will present the digital transformation journey undertaken by the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile through the implementation of a modern Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) solution, based on the SailPoint platform. Together with Assertiva, the University took on the challenge of centralizing, automating, and strengthening access control for hundreds of thousands of users — including students, faculty, and administrative staff — in a dynamic and highly demanding environment. This case demonstrates how a world-class academic institution can adopt advanced tools to drive its cybersecurity strategy, protect critical information, and project confidence and technological leadership.
