Access Review

An access review is a scheduled check confirming that every person with access to a system or record still needs it.

Example

Each quarter, a workspace admin runs through the member list and removes access for anyone who has changed roles or left, rather than waiting for an incident to prompt it.

Why it matters

A scheduled review is the concrete mechanism that actually prevents permission sprawl, rather than just being a good idea in principle.

Limits and cautions

A review that only checks whether access exists, not whether the level of access still fits the person's current role, misses a common failure mode.

Relevance to Stelaah

Stelaah's workspace member and role settings give an admin a single place to run this kind of review across the whole team.
