Saviynt SoD Services Offering

Developed by Grant Thornton

Overview

In the pursuit of digital transformation, organizations encounter new identity and access management (IAM) risks arising from three primary sources:Inadequate segregation of accounting or business access privileges. Excessive access due to the absence of least privilege security.

Complex ERP and EHR access processes are time-consuming and prone to errors. Many organizations discover significant risk exposure when they implement governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) software suites with access security and monitoring modules.

This indicates that past confidence in Segregation of Duties (SoD) may have been misplaced. The importance of SoD is often underestimated, leading to it being regarded as having equal importance to other transaction-level internal controls.

Consequently, system access rights are poorly designed, and SoD is not effectively prioritized or utilizedNevertheless, effective SoD enforced by an ERP security system is one of the fundamental controls. By establishing appropriate SoD, organizations can significantly bolster their risk management capabilities.

Grant Thornton offers SoD-As-A-Service using the Saviynt Identity Cloud platform. This service reduces security risks, ensures compliance, and streamlines audit processes by enabling critical use cases for ERP solutions, including SAP, NetSuite, Oracle EBS, Salesforce, PeopleSoft, and Workday.
