Know who has access. Verify what they need. Reduce unnecessary permissions.
The User Access Review Checklist provides small businesses with a structured, customizable way to perform periodic user access reviews and document access across systems, applications, accounts, and business information.
As employees change roles, leave the organization, gain new responsibilities, or receive access to additional systems, permissions can accumulate over time. Regular access reviews help businesses identify unnecessary, outdated, excessive, or potentially risky access before it becomes a security concern.
Use this customizable checklist to review and document:
Active and inactive user accounts
Employee and contractor access
Role and responsibility changes
Least-privilege access
Privileged and administrative accounts
Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
Shared and generic accounts
Remote access and VPN permissions
Cloud applications and business systems
Third-party and vendor access
Former employee access
Access requiring modification or removal
Corrective actions and follow-up
Final review and approval
Designed for small and growing businesses, this resource provides a practical framework for performing periodic access reviews and maintaining clearer documentation of who has access to important business systems and information.
Best For: Small businesses, business owners, IT teams, managers, security teams, and organizations looking to strengthen identity and access management practices.
