USE CASE

Role & Team Changes

When people change roles, their access should change too. Automatically.

60%of employees retain access from previous roles after transferring

New role. Same old access. Plus new access on top.

When someone moves from engineering to product management, they get access to product tools like Mixpanel, Amplitude, and Productboard. Great. But nobody removes their GitHub admin access, their AWS production access, or their CI/CD pipeline permissions.

This is access creep — and it happens with every internal move. Promotions, lateral transfers, team reorganizations — each one adds new access without removing old access.

Over time, long-tenured employees accumulate permissions that far exceed what their current role requires. This violates the principle of least privilege and creates serious security risk.

What's at stake

Privilege accumulation

Employees who've been at the company for years have access to far more than they need. Each role change added permissions without removing the old ones.

Increased blast radius

If a long-tenured employee's account is compromised, the attacker gets access to systems spanning multiple teams and functions.

Compliance violations

Least-privilege access is a core requirement for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA. Access creep is one of the most common audit findings.

Data boundary violations

Someone who moved from HR to marketing shouldn't still have access to HR systems with employee personal data. But they often do.
