The Corma integration for Zenefits uses Zenefits as the source of truth for access: when people join, change roles or leave, Corma updates their accounts across connected applications. Zenefits, acquired by TriNet in 2022 and now sold as TriNet HR Platform, is a human resources information system (HRIS) that helps companies manage employee records, onboarding, benefits administration, time tracking and other HR processes in one platform. It is commonly used as a source of truth for employee lifecycle data across organizations.
Why should access follow Zenefits data?
Since Zenefits stores core employee information and role details, it plays a critical role in keeping access to business applications aligned with hiring, role changes and exits, the joiner-mover-leaver cycle. Without that connection, the gaps add up:
- Manual provisioning slows employee onboarding: without automation, IT teams create accounts by hand across multiple tools when new employees join.
- Access that does not update with HR changes: if systems are not synchronized, employees may keep or lose access incorrectly when roles, departments or managers change.
- Former employees who still have app access: without automated offboarding, terminated employees can continue accessing SaaS applications and company data.
- Fragmented identity management increases risk: when HR data is not connected to IT systems, permissions become inconsistent across tools.
- Limited visibility across employee lifecycle events: organizations often struggle to make sure HR changes are reflected across all applications.
How Corma automates Zenefits-driven access control
- Onboarding across all apps: Corma uses Zenefits as a source of truth to provision accounts in connected tools when employees join, through automated provisioning.
- Offboarding and access removal: when an employee leaves, Corma revokes their access across all connected applications.
- Role-based synchronization: employee changes in Zenefits update permissions across the entire SaaS stack, which supports least-privilege access.
- Central audit trail of identity changes: all provisioning and deprovisioning actions are logged for compliance and governance purposes such as SOC 2, GDPR and ISO 27001, giving you a complete audit trail.
- Unified visibility across HR and IT systems: Corma connects HR data with identity and SaaS usage to give a single view of access across the organization.
