Security and governance

With people in your account, the next step is controlling how they authenticate and what they're allowed to do\.

This course covers the identity stack — domain verification, SSO, and SCIM — so your identity provider becomes the single source of truth, then moves to governance policies that control which apps are permitted, how connections are shared, and when Zaps require approval before going live\.

By the end, your account will have clear rules, not just people\.
