The NIST CyberSecurity Framework (CSF) 800-53 Rev 5 PR-Ac-2 [PR-AC-2(4) Automatically Audit Actions] requires that enterprises automatically audit account changes, including modifications. Every approval requested must be documented. This requires that enterprises first decide who should get access and who should review the access request, and then document the access request and approval granted or withheld.
YouAttest Access Approval lets organizations simultaneously embrace both best practices (human intervention in decisions) and audit mandates (immediate and stringent documentation that’s best accomplished via automation).
Compliance frameworks and auditors require access approvals to be formally documented by the appropriate personnel for all end user and admin access. YouAttest has successfully developed a tool to assist organizations with obtaining access approvals through systematic and automated approaches,” states Shannon Noonan, Co-founder and President of QoS Consulting Solutions
Access Approval is the third component in YouAttest’s Identity Governance Trilogy:
