Data system owner determines the access roles to the system in relation to the tasks of users. The compliance of the actual access rights with the planned ones must be monitored and the rights reassessed at regular intervals.

When reviewing access rights, care must also be taken to minimize admin rights and eliminate unnecessary accounts.

The organization has predefined authentication methods that employees should prefer when using data systems.

When using cloud services, the user can often freely decide how he or she authenticates with the service. A single centralized authentication account (such as a Google or Microsoft 365 account) can help close a large number of access rights at once when the main user account that acts as the authentication method is closed.

The organization implements role-based access control with predefined access roles for the various protected assets that entitle access to the associated asset. Strictness of the access roles should reflect the security risks associated with the asset.

The following should be considered to support access management:

• how much information each user needs access to
• how widely the user should be able to edit data (read, write, delete, print, execute)
• whether other applications have access to the data
• whether the data can be segregated within the property so that sensitive data is less exposed
