Difficulty: EasyIdentity and Access Management Operations

A security administrator notices during a routine audit that an employee who transferred to a new department retains active access permissions from their previous job role. Which identity and access management procedure should be executed to address this issue?

  1. Perform user permission recertification and role adjustmentAnswer
  2. B
    Re-issue the user's multi-factor authentication credentials
  3. C
    Assign the user's device to a trusted internal network perimeter group
  4. D
    Implement a deterrent control policy for file share access

Answer

Perform user permission recertification and role adjustment
Performing user permission recertification and role adjustment systematically reviews an account's granted entitlements, revoking stale access rights to enforce the principle of least privilege following role transfers.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the core access issue resulting from the internal department transfer.
The user retains privilege creep (unneeded legacy access rights).
Changes in job roles require aligning permissions with current duties.
2
Evaluate the appropriate IAM operational control.
Permission recertification and privilege adjustment resolves inappropriate access.
Recertification audits existing rights and removes unneeded authorizations.
