Datasets

Sample identity and account datasets for practice.

Quick answer

Synthetic datasets of identities, accounts and entitlements you can load to practice aggregation, correlation and certifications.

Key takeaways
  • Synthetic identities and accounts
  • Safe, non-real data
  • Practice aggregation/correlation
  • Test roles and certifications

These synthetic datasets of identities, accounts and entitlements let you populate a sandbox with realistic-looking but entirely fake data, so you can practise the full governance loop, aggregation, correlation, roles, certifications, without touching real systems or real personal data.

What you get

  • Synthetic identity records
  • Sample accounts and entitlements
  • Data safe for training and testing
  • Enough volume to exercise real workflows

How to use them

Load a dataset as a source, aggregate it, correlate the accounts, then build roles and run a certification against it to experience the whole flow safely. Ideal for training and for testing customisations.

Common pitfalls

  • Mixing synthetic and real data in the same environment.
  • Assuming synthetic data matches your real data quality.
  • Using tiny datasets that hide performance behaviour.
