ControlPanelGRC Emergency Access Manager automatically provisions pre-approved emergency access and mitigates risk with a workflow that tracks changes by user and routes and documents the review of detailed notifications.



In order to eliminate Segregation of Duties (SOD) and meet Sarbanes-Oxley requirements companies have reduced access assigned to IT personnel and users in Production systems. The reality is that both IT personnel and end users often need to temporarily gain additional authorizations to process transactions. Historically the process for gaining emergency authorization was to call security to add a role or profile and remove it after completing a task, but this places a large burden on security personnel.

ControlPanelGRC Emergency Access Manager is a compliance focused solution that reduces the burden on IT personnel by providing selected users with immediate authorizations to troubleshoot issues in production or to act in place of an absent co-worker.

Configurable


Configuration within Emergency Access Manager provides users with many options including selecting roles assigned to another user, selecting roles based on name, or automatic assignment of predefined Roles.

Securable


Users must be pre-authorized to execute specific FireCall Transactions.

Temporary


FireCall Authorizations are removed as soon as the user’s session ends.

Auditable


Upon execution Emergency Access Manager prompts users to provide a detailed description their reasons for activating a FireCall Authorization. A notification is then sent to owners via e-mail or routed for review in the ControlPanelGRC Workflow. All notifications contain detailed information on executed transactions, statistical records, and change documents.

Track-able


Changes are tracked for the current user and are not processed by a generic logon.
