Key stats

NIST recommends minimum necessary access for assigned tasks
NIST identifies MFA as an important additional control

Headline finding

CRM access should follow the actual change set, not the broad job title. A quarterly review is useful only when it compares current permissions to current tasks and removes stale access.

Evidence and method

NIST identity and access guidance supports least privilege, MFA, and review. We translate those principles into a role-to-field matrix and a sampled change audit.

Review routine

List editable objects, fields, exports, integrations, and approval rights. Confirm named-account ownership, MFA, manager approval, exception tickets, and timely removal after role changes.

Key takeaways

Prefer read-only enrichment where possible. Track reversals, duplicate creation, unapproved exports, and unresolved access exceptions.

FAQs

Is an annual review enough? Risk and change frequency may require more frequent review. Does MFA permit broad access? No; it complements least privilege.
