Setting up an access review

Roles and permissions

The following roles can access and update the Setup tab for an access review:

  • Administrators with manager permissions for the access review

  • Compliance managers with manager permissions for the access review

  • Users with manager permissions for the access review

To set up an access review in Hyperproof you need a company directory and user access lists for the applications that need a review. To enter the information in your access review you can configure a supported Hypersync or a CSV file to import data. If you are importing from a CSV file, you may be able to create the file by exporting data for the people in your company from a directory service, such as Active Directory, or a Human Resources system, such as WorkDay. You may also be able to export user lists in CSV format for the applications that need review.

Note

Human Resources systems and identity providers can be added as both a directory and an application in the setup for an access review. When added as a directory, you import a list of people in the organization and their identifying information, such as email, name, job/department, manager, start date, and employment status. When added as an application, you import a list of the user accounts that can log into the application and their permissions.

When you have created the directory and application entries, use CSV files or Hypersyncs to import the directory and user access lists into Hyperproof on the Setup tab. These imports are the source for the lists of users to review. Information from the directory and the user access lists is combined to provide reviewers with additional details such as the user's title, department, and role.
