Business Transformation (BT) Project Questions that had to be answered • How to embed proper security controls during the project

• How to utilize existing infrastructure and resources • How and where should the SOD rule set and mitigating controls reside… considering desire to avoid duplicate control repositories, documentation, and responses • How do we manage emergency access management (FireFighters) • How do we manage enterprise role management • How do we standardize and automate the user provisioning process • How do we ensure compliance and provide automated tools to evaluate security risk and mitigate exceptions • Future integration with IdM / IAM
