Machinery of Government (MoG) changes create complex operational, security and compliance risks for public sector agencies. Whether departments are being merged, functions redistributed or new entities created, these transitions can disrupt organisational structures, access controls, data governance and continuity.
This white paper examines how agencies can manage MoG transitions securely through an identity security-led approach aligned with obligations under the PGPA Act and Privacy Act. It outlines how SailPoint SaaS solutions can support automated identity provisioning, deprovisioning, access governance, data protection and lifecycle management across changing entities.
By integrating identity security with broader cybersecurity systems, agencies can improve visibility, strengthen compliance, automate access decisions and respond to threats in real time. The paper positions MoG transitions not only as periods of risk, but as opportunities to build stronger resilience, governance and operational continuity.
