Access Remediation
Access Remediation is the process of correcting inappropriate, excessive, conflicting, or unjustified access.
Definition
Access Remediation is the set of actions used to resolve problematic access findings, such as removing permissions, changing role assignments, retiring exceptions, tightening scope, or adding controls. It usually follows certification findings, risk analysis, or policy violation detection.
Why it matters
Remediation closes the governance loop by ensuring that findings are corrected, not just documented.
The Ariovis perspective
Exceptional access should be explicit, approved, time-bound and reviewed. It should not become permanent simply because the original request was never revisited.
