Integrated robotics and access management for target systems

An access management system comprising:

• a central directory data storage storing electronic identities of individuals and credentials of the individuals;
• and
• a robotic process automation (RPA) system comprising one or more processors that execute machine-readable instructions stored in a non-transitory computer readable medium, the machine-readable instructions comprising instructions that cause the processors to:
• generate a plurality of robots for execution of a plurality of access management tasks on a plurality of target systems;
• receive steps associated with manual execution of the access management tasks on the plurality of target systems;
• train the plurality of robots, such that the plurality of robots execute the access management tasks based on the steps associated with the manual execution of the access management tasks on the plurality of target systems;
• obtain an access management instruction from a robot instruction queue, the access management instruction including information regarding one of the plurality of access management tasks to be executed on one of the plurality of target systems;
• identify at least one robot of the plurality of robots trained to execute the access management instruction on the target system;
• and
• execute the access management task on the target system via the identified robot.

A method of providing automatic access to a plurality of target systems comprising:

• receiving a request to perform an access management task from a plurality of access management tasks on a target system of the plurality of target systems;
• determining that the request is approved;
• generating an access management request to perform the access management task based on the received request in response to determining the received request is approved;
• extracting information required for generating an access management instruction from the access management request;
• generating the access management instruction in a robot instruction queue based on the extracted information;
• determining that the access management instruction is missing required information;
• obtaining the required information from a central directory data storage including electronic identities of individuals and credentials of the individuals;
• inserting the obtained information in the access management instruction;
• monitoring the robot instruction queue for new access management instructions;
• obtaining the access management instruction from the robot instruction queue;
• identifying at least one robot from a plurality of robots for execution of the access management instruction, the identified robot being trained to execute the access management instruction on the target system;
• and
• executing, via the identified robot, the access management instruction on the target system.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising machine-readable instructions that cause a processor to:

• generate a plurality of robots for execution of access management tasks on a plurality of target systems;
• receive steps associated with manual execution of the access management tasks on the plurality of target systems;
• train the robots to execute the access management tasks based on the steps associated with the manual execution of the access management tasks on the plurality of target systems;
• monitor a robot instruction queue for new access management instructions;
• obtain an access management instruction from the robot instruction queue;
• identify at least one of the plurality of robots trained to execute the access management instruction on the target system;
• execute via the identified robot, the access management instruction on the target system;
• update a status associated with the access management instruction in the robot instruction queue;
• provide by the identified robot, a reason for failure, if the identified robot fails to execute the access management instruction on the target system;
• and
• determine remedial actions to be performed for the execution of the failed access management instruction.
