Access Management is a fundamental cybersecurity practice that controls and monitors user access to systems, applications, and data within an organization. It encompasses the processes and technologies used to verify user identities, grant appropriate permissions, and ensure that only authorized individuals can access specific resources. This includes mechanisms such as authentication (verifying who a user is), authorization (determining what a user is allowed to do), and auditing (tracking user activities). Effective Access Management is crucial for maintaining data security, compliance with regulations, and overall organizational cybersecurity posture.
