How pervasive is the business-controls problem? A recent study by ACFE found that “a lack of internal controls, such as segregation of duties, was cited as the biggest deficiency” in control weaknesses that can lead to fraud. In its “Access Governance Trends Survey,” Ponemon Institute LLC found that 57 percent of organizations surveyed lack the confidence to know whether their user access practices are compliant because they don’t have enterprise-wide visibility of that user access.
Today’s access controls are usually enforced at the application level which means each access-control regimen is effectively “siloed” – one can’t “see” the other. It’s challenging enough to manage access within a single application. Managing that kind of access across all enterprise applications, across thousands of users, and across multiple business processes - the scale of complexity skyrockets. And adding to that complexity is that these applications may be on premise or in the cloud.
But if you’re not adequately evaluating business risk, insider threat, segregation of duties or other compliance activities within your cloud applications, odds are you’ll end up with a significant audit finding. Find out how you can quickly ensure your cloud solutions such as Ariba are secure, respond to suspicious activity and analyze business activity for risk or compliance issues.
