As leaders
and managers in Sifers-Grayson, it is important to understand the
ever-changing world dealing with information technology and cyber
security; and why investing in an Identity Governance and Administration
solution should be considered. Before discussing solutions, we should define the problem.
According to ISACA, Governance, is ensuring stakeholder needs,
conditions and options are balanced to monitor performance and
compliance. From what I can tell, it appears the current process
Sifers-Grayson follows for issuing computer accounts is to fill out some
paperwork and then an account on a computer is issued. At least the
company has a paper trail, however, this leads to a lack of responsible
network management and accountability; and does not meet the
minimum-security practice. The problem associated with this is the lack
of identity management and understanding of typical user behavior,
being able to quickly run forensics, auditing and enforcing of policy
and compliance. Our founding father’s placed checks and balances when designing
our government. As information owners, it is important to adopt the
same thought process when dealing with the company network.
Establishing “Separation of duties is a classic security method to
manage conflict of interest, the appearance of conflict of interest, and
fraud. It restricts the amount of power held by any one individual”
(Gregg, Nam, Northcutt). Coupled with this security practice is
ensuring polices are in place to enforce least privilege operations.
Least privilege is essentially allowing only the permissions required
for that individual to do their job. For example, we do not need an
accounting executive to have full domain administrator rights just
because they need to encrypt a file. Nor do you want your IT
administrator checking their email or surfing their web in their full
domain administrative role. They should only access those accounts as
necessary, day-to-day operations should be accomplished with their
regular user permissions. Adopting an identity management software solution will help sure
up the gaps in network security mentioned above, specifically the
Role-based access control where the user is automatically stripped of
system accesses not required for their job. For example, Kaseya offers a
product called AuthAnvil (not endorsed by me) which protects company
data by allowing only those authorized to access it and has a complete
and integrated Identity and Access Management solutions. There are many
commercially available products to help with Identity Governance and
Administration solutions. As you can see, implementing commercial solutions is an easy fix
to a somewhat complicated IT problem set. As managers of key
departments, it is imperative for you to understand the risk involved
with company IT systems and make an educated decision for the strategic
future of Sifers-Grayson.References:Glossary . (n.d.). Retrieved November 06, 2017, from https://www.isaca.org/Pages/Glossary.aspx?tid=1443…Olzak, T. (2016, August 30).
