The Fastpath Assure® Suite includes a module for Segregation of Duties (SoD). The SoD module analyzes access in your business software, by user or role, down to the lowest security level, and reports conflicts or risks associated with the access.
Segregation of duties is the practice of separating the access needed to perform a business process between multiple users in order to limit the risk of fraud, error, and misstatement. For example, take the process of paying vendors. You don’t want to give one person the capability of both creating and paying a vendor because you run the risk of the user creating and paying themselves as a vendor.
Developed in conjunction with internal and external auditors, Fastpath Assure is delivered with built-in audit intelligence to enable users to efficiently and effectively analyze their Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle, SAP, Intacct, NetSuite and other applications for potential segregation of duties conflicts. With Fastpath Assure, users can propose, approve, and implement resolutions and mitigations within the system throughout the audit process.
Businesses may understand the need for segregation of duties (SoD), but recognizing SoD conflicts in their system can be another story. This may result from an incomplete list of conflicts, an inability to easily pull access data, or an excessively complicated access model with dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of users and access points to review. Any of these issues can make SoD reviews inefficient, if not impossible.
The SoD module in Fastpath Assure comes with a conflict rule set designed by internal and external auditors and mapped to the specific business software used. The module can use the rule set to automatically review the user access and roles in your system for conflicts and report them in an easy-to-read and comprehensive report.
You’ve gone through your entire system, cleaned up your critical conflicts and
With Fastpath Assure, the SoD module allows real-time review of roles and users to identify when an issue occurs. The module includes the ability to create reports and schedule them to be run regularly, so conflicts can be recognized and mitigated early and often.
