Story
Inside Williams-Sonoma, identity operations used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer discretionary groups working out of the United States. IAM and helpdesk needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Williams-Sonoma uses Infinity from Check Point as the working layer for access control. Check Point Software Technologies provides firewall, cloud, and endpoint security, with a shared threat intelligence layer. The practical change is simple: identity operations has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Williams-Sonoma gets from Check Point is a durable place to run identity operations and a way for IAM and helpdesk to see the same access control at the same time.
