Role & Process Optimization

The data owner or supervisor—not the IT administrator—usually has the best knowledge and insight of who should access resources in your network, including their access level. By introducing a role concept for analyzing and granting access rights, you introduce the importance of data awareness and action into the company.

ARM helps you map your company's organizational chart using the data owner concept for all departments. This process allows you to assign employees to the specific data owners. As a result, the data owners can analyze or assign access rights to their staff.

An employee can use the ARM GrantMA to request access rights through a Web portal. The data owner then decides on the access rights in the department using a simple workflow.
