Study Finds Delays in Revoking System Access
Organizations in the United States are impacting their security by dilly-dallying when it comes to granting and revoking system access, according to new research.
A study published today by the Identity Defined Security Alliance (IDSA) uncovered significant delays in giving and rescinding access to corporate systems, impacting operations and increasing potential risk to the organization.
The non-profit s report, “Identity and Access Management: The Stakeholder Perspective,” found that for the majority of companies (72%) it takes one week or longer for a typical employee to obtain access to required systems.
After a worker leaves, it takes half of organizations three days or longer to revoke the former employee s system access, creating regulatory compliance issues and prolonging the risk of data theft.
