What it does, what you get and the evidence
- What it does
- The scan reads the roles and rights from Microsoft 365 and the business software and sets them against the job functions. Whatever is too broad, outdated or conflicting goes into a report with a proposal per finding.
- What you get
- A report with findings, severity and proposal, and after the clean-up a second scan as the follow-up measurement.
- Evidence
- The follow-up: the same scan after the clean-up, with the findings that were resolved.
- Example
- A wholesaler with 120 employees finds that former staff can still reach the shared folders and that three people can both create suppliers and approve payments.
