Saviynt’s Identity Cloud Futureproofs LIXIL’s Global Identity Management System

The company supports the global leader in water and housing products by streamlining security and compliance for 53,000+ employees and 70,000 identities across more than 150 countries

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Saviynt, the global leader in AI-based identity security and governance solutions, today announced that LIXIL Corporation (“LIXIL”), a global leader in the water and housing industries, has chosen Saviynt’s Identity Cloud to enhance its global identity management system that now provides more than 70,000 identities with improved user experience, compliance readiness, and centralized visibility across the organization.

With a workforce of more than 53,000 employees, LIXIL turned to Saviynt for the flexibility to modernize its legacy processes without disrupting operations. The cloud-native solution met the company’s global needs, including compliance with GDPR data residency requirements and support for Japanese-language user interfaces. LIXIL’s implementation included successful collaboration with Saviynt Expert Services, ensuring a smooth multi-phase deployment.

“Prior to the implementation, we relied on manual processes and localized automation tools for many tasks such as employee onboarding and offboarding, attestations, reporting, and audit controls. Now we have automated account and access granting processes, along with centralized visibility across the company,” said Sandy Halim, global information security leader at LIXIL. “Improved visibility and governance have led to meaningful improvements in LIXIL’s overall security posture.”

Saviynt provides LIXIL with the following benefits from its Identity Cloud:

• Improved User Experience: Streamlined employee onboarding/offboarding and self-service provisioning for over 70,000 internal and third-party users.
• Granular Identity Visibility: Centralized and granular visibility across a diverse and expanding application ecosystem.
• Proactive Audit Readiness: Automation, standardized controls, and enhanced reporting capabilities make audits faster and easier.
• Global Compliance and Security: Simplified governance processes and improved reporting mitigate compliance and cybersecurity risks.
• Efficient Third-Party Access Governance: Seamless integration of third-party access governance (TPAG) within a single platform, enabling easy extension of capabilities to a global network of vendors and contractors.

With Saviynt’s support, LIXIL is now well-positioned to continue its cloud modernization journey. Looking ahead, LIXIL plans to implement Saviynt’s privileged access management (PAM) solution and continue to onboard additional applications, expanding the scope of its identity governance initiatives.

“The exceptionally strong relationships we enjoyed with the LIXIL team in Japan – overcoming significant language and cultural barriers – contributed greatly to the success of this implementation,” said Karthik Satish Kumar, vice president of the customer office, APJ at Saviynt. “This collaboration has helped both teams learn and grow, and we are grateful to LIXIL for the opportunity to partner on this transformative project.”
