Review tab for an access review

When conducting an access review, you may have multiple application user lists that need to be reviewed. To help you manage all of that data and understand the status of your reviews, an access review has a Review tab with a separate card for each application. Application cards contain the following information:

  • User-specified name of the application being reviewed

  • Review status

  • Number of remaining records to be reviewed

  • Number of user access updates pending

  • Initials of the access review owner

Account to review

Full name and username or email of the user whose access is being reviewed.

Note

If both username and email were included when creating the application user list, the username takes precedence and is displayed. Email is hidden.

Role

Role assigned to the user for this application, such as user or administrator. Role names are determined by the application.

Last login

The last time this user logged into the application being reviewed. Use this date to locate accounts that are no longer being used.

Job title / Department

The job title and department of the user being reviewed. This information is pulled from the employee directory and is matched to the user record based on the user's email address. If the email address is unavailable, Hyperproof tries to match based on the user's full name.

Employment status

The user's employment status. This information is pulled from the employee directory and is matched to the user record based on the user's email address. If the email address is not available, Hyperproof tries to match based on the user's full name.

Maintain access?

(At current role)

Indicates whether or not the user should maintain their current access to the application. Options include:

Note

If you view records where you are not the reviewer, the ar-gray-check.png Yes and ar-gray-x.png No icons display in gray with the selected icon outlined in dark gray.

  • ar-green-check.png Yes - Indicates that user access should not be changed.

  • ar-red-x.png No - Indicates that user access should be changed. Requires that you enter additional information in the Access notes field.

Access notes

Notes containing information about the access changes needed for a user. Notes are required for any user where the Maintain access field is set to No. To update or add a note, click in the notes field.

Access updated

Indicates whether or not the user's access has been updated in the application. This is where the person responsible for updating user access attests that the update has been done. Options include:

  • ar-green-check.png Yes - Indicates that the user's access has been changed for the application being reviewed.

  • ar-red-x.png No - Indicates that the user's access has not been changed and requires that you enter additional information in the Sysadmin notes field indicating why the changes were not made.

Note

If you view records where you are not the sysadmin, the ar-gray-check.png Yes and ar-gray-x.png No icons display in gray with the selected icon outlined in dark gray.

Sysadmin notes

Notes about updating a user's access. Notes are required for any user where the Access updated field is set to No, indicating that the requested updates were not done. For example, if a user is on a temporary leave, it may be better to suspend the user account than to remove permissions. When the user returns, you can reinstate their account without having to reconfigure all of the permissions.

To update or add a note, click in the notes field.

Reviewer

Name and email address of the person reviewing the selected record. Reviewers can only see the records assigned to them unless they are the owner of the access review.

Sysadmin

Name and email address of the person attesting to the access updates for the selected user record. The Sysadmin can only see records assigned to them unless they are the owner of the access review.

Groups

List of groups this user belongs to if groups are used to assign permissions.

Manager

Name and email address of the selected user's manager. This information is pulled from the employee directory and is matched to the user record based on the user's email address. If the email address is unavailable, Hyperproof tries to match based on the user's full name.
