What it checks

An entitlement-management catalog marked externally visible can surface its access packages to users outside the tenant in the My Access portal. Externally-visible catalogs are appropriate for deliberate B2B collaboration but are worth confirming, since they widen who can discover and request access. This check flags externally-visible catalogs for review.

Recommended value

Externally-visible catalogs are intentional and limited to those needed for B2B collaboration

Remediation

In Identity Governance > Entitlement management > Catalogs, review each catalog with external visibility enabled. Disable external visibility on catalogs that only serve internal access packages, keeping external discoverability limited to catalogs deliberately built for partner or guest collaboration.

Fixture-proven verdicts

Every verdict below is proven by a golden fixture in the module's gating test suite. This table derives from the last green run; it cannot be edited by hand.
