Over time, many employees collect access they no longer need: old logins, shared folders from past projects, and permissions that were never removed. This ‘stale access’ quietly builds up in the background and rarely shows up on anyone’s to‑do list. 🧹 If one of these over-privileged accounts is ever compromised, an attacker can reach far more data and systems than that person should reasonably touch today. 🔓💻
A simple habit like reviewing access when roles change, when someone leaves, and at least once a year can dramatically reduce this risk and keep permissions aligned with how your team actually works now. ✅
If it has been a while since you checked who has access to what, this is your sign to start an access clean-up. Contact Bernie Orglmeister at support@skyviewtek.com or 610-590-5006 to talk through a practical access review plan. 📞📋
