At Hyperproof, we recognize the growing demand for precision and efficiency in User Access Reviews (UAR) within the governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) landscape. Traditional manual processes are cumbersome and error-prone, exposing critical security gaps.
Our new UAR feature automates and simplifies UAR workflows, helping organizations swiftly identify and address access discrepancies. This enhances overall system security and reduces the risk of breaches.
What are user access reviews?
User Access Reviews (UAR) are periodic checks to ensure users have appropriate access rights, reducing security risks and ensuring compliance with regulations. Effective user access reviews are indispensable for preventing data breaches, unauthorized access, and other costly security incidents, preserving the integrity and trustworthiness of your organization’s information security framework.
The challenges of outdated access management
In the past, user access reviews were done manually across multiple disparate systems. This outdated process comes with several pain points:
Time-consuming manual processes
Reviews are typically done quarterly, and each cycle can require hundreds of manual tasks, adding hundreds of hours of effort. Many organizations have to allocate substantial resources, including full-time employees, just to keep up with the workload.
Disjointed systems
Managing user access across multiple platforms often means working with a variety of tools — spreadsheets, emails, and ticketing systems — that don’t integrate, resulting in delays and inefficiencies.
Lack of real-time information
Organizations struggle with delayed or outdated data, which can lead to potential security gaps and complicate the audit process.
