Zluri is rebuilding access governance around the account rather than the application.
Zluri has spent August moving its data model below the application boundary. Accounts and instances became first-class entities with their own owners, roles and lifecycle actions; source prioritisation replaced the single-primary-source rule for deciding whether a user is active; and activity-based discovery gained a default status and an inactivity threshold. Access certifications now review individual accounts rather than a user's application access as a whole. Most of it ships as beta, on demand, or behind an enable flag.

Zluri has spent August moving its data model below the application boundary. Accounts and instances became first-class entities with their own owners, roles and lifecycle actions; source prioritisation replaced the single-primary-source rule for deciding whether a user is active; and activity-based discovery gained a default status and an inactivity threshold. Access certifications now review individual accounts rather than a user's application access as a whole. Most of it ships as beta, on demand, or behind an enable flag.
The releases read as one program: make the account knowable, make its status trustworthy, then make it reviewable. Identity resolution moved off email matching onto source-native identifiers, status resolution moved from one trusted source to a ranked fallback chain, and certification moved from user-level to account-level decisions. Zluri is also layering its own judgment on top, with recommendation signals on access requests and categorised risk chips on account reviews, which is a different competitive claim than routing requests faster. The instances release names non-human identity as the destination, and this data model is the prerequisite for it.
Expect the account-level primitives to graduate out of beta and the advisory scoring to acquire teeth, with recommendation thresholds that auto-approve or auto-revoke rather than merely advise. Non-human and service account coverage is the step the entries name themselves.
