1. The essentials

  • Unique identities and MFA.
  • Least-privilege, role-based access.
  • Just-in-time privileged access.
  • Prompt deprovisioning of leavers.

2. Real access reviews

Have system owners (not just IT) confirm each person still needs their access, and act on the results — with dated evidence.
