The diversity of application and data assets across an enterprise, combined with the complexity of their related legacy, client-server, web and service-oriented architectures, poses a daunting governance and risk management challenge. Managing the security, compliance and regulatory risks of inappropriate access to applications and information requires a strategic approach to access governance - one that is based on auditable business processes that enable line-of-business managers and information security, compliance and audit teams to collaborate while ensuring accountability, transparency and visibility.

 Business managers are key to this collaboration. While security compliance teams define policies and controls based on business requirements and regulatory mandates, it is the line-of-business managers who understand how information assets need to be used; who should have access to them and the business context for reviewing user entitlements; and defining roles to simplify access management and compliance.

 With the right business processes for access governance in place, it's easy to determine who has access to what; how they got that access; whether they should have access; who approved what; what business and IT roles are appropriate; whether compliance objectives are being met; and what the key risk indicators are.
