Overview/Description
You probably wouldn't leave the keys to your car, house, or office lying around for anyone to grab and use as they please. The same attention you give to protecting your physical valuables should be considered when protecting the confidentiality, availability, and integrity of your organization's IT data and intellectual property. Proper Access Management is critical for providing access to users who require it, and keeping those who don't out. This course covers the purpose, scope, and value of Access Management to the organization. This course also details the steps in the process for managing access, including requesting access, verification, providing rights, monitoring, logging and tracking, and removing and restricting rights where necessary. Finally, the course covers the key performance indicators used to check the efficiency and effectiveness of an organization's Access Management process, and critical success factors to ensure success. This course will assist the learner in preparing for the ITIL® Operational Support and Analysis certificate and is aligned with the ITIL® Intermediate syllabus. ---------------------------------------------------- ITIL® is a registered trade mark of AXELOS Limited.
