Title

Review of User Privileges

Control

(a) Review [Assignment: frequency] the privileges assigned to [Assignment: roles and classes] to validate the need for such privileges; and
(b) Reassign or remove privileges, if necessary, to correctly reflect organizational mission and business needs.

Discussion

The need for certain assigned user privileges may change over time to reflect changes in organizational mission and business functions, environments of operation, technologies, or threats. A periodic review of assigned user privileges is necessary to determine if the rationale for assigning such privileges remains valid. If the need cannot be revalidated, organizations take appropriate corrective actions.
