Stop rubber-stamping a spreadsheet of who-has-access

Quarterly access review means emailing managers a spreadsheet of who-has-access-to-what, and most reviews get rubber-stamped without real scrutiny because the format makes it hard to catch what's actually wrong. Build a review that requires an explicit decision per access grant.

A spreadsheet makes "approve all" the path of least resistance

When a manager gets a spreadsheet listing every access grant on their team, scanning row by row for what shouldn't be there is tedious enough that most reviewers just approve the whole thing. Access that should have been revoked months ago quietly persists.

Run access review as a campaign requiring an explicit certify-or-revoke decision on every grant, and revoke automatically what isn't confirmed.

From campaign to revocation
  1. 1. Access review campaign is launched for a system or team
  2. 2. Managers receive their team's access grants to review
  3. 3. Each grant is certified or flagged for revocation
  4. 4. Flagged and unconfirmed access is revoked automatically
  5. 5. Campaign results are logged for audit

Scenarios to test in your preview

  • An access grant with no reviewer decision by the campaign deadline must be revoked, not left pending indefinitely.
  • A manager must only review grants for their own team, not the whole organization.
  • A revoked grant's decision and reason must remain in the audit record, not be deleted.
FAQ

Common questions about access review software

Who is this for?

IT and security teams running periodic access certification instead of one-off, ad hoc reviews.

Does this replace identity management?

No—it manages the certification and revocation decision. Bring access data from your existing identity or directory system.
