Abstract: An identity management system is augmented to provide for automated provisioning of user accounts. A user account is autoprovisioned based on detected attribute patterns. A set of existing account information is retrieved. A software module resident in a computer memory performs pattern matching on the retrieved set of existing account information to extract attribute information in the retrieved set of existing account information and on the extracted attribute information to discover a first attribute pattern. Next, an account template is generated according to the discovered attribute patterns. Using the generated account template, a new account on the first target is created giving the first user access to the target.

Abstract: A set of existing account information belonging to respective user accounts of a first set of users is retrieved. Pattern matching is performed by an attribute pattern discovery component on the retrieved set of existing account information to discover attribute patterns in the retrieved set of existing account information. A first pattern matching process extracts user attribute information in the retrieved set of existing account information and a second pattern matching process discovers at least a first attribute pattern within the extracted user attribute information. An account template is generated according to the first discovered attribute pattern. The generated account template is used to create a new account on the first target for a first user where the first user is not a member of the first set of users. The first user is granted access to the first target using the created new account.

Abstract: An identity management system is augmented to provide for automated provisioning of user accounts in an IAM system. A user account is autoprovisioned based on detected attribute patterns. Responsive to a user request from a requesting user for access to a first target, it is determined that access will require a creation of a new account on the first target. A set of existing account information is retrieved. The retrieved set of existing account information is analyzed to discover attribute patterns in the existing account information. Next, an account template is generated according to the discovered attribute patterns. Using the generated account template, a new account on the first target is created giving the user access to the target.
