Unmanaged access is the leading cause of breaches and the leading exception on audit reports.
Know exactly who has access to what. Revoke it the day it should be gone.
Securest UAR covers every application you own — including the non-SSO tools your compliance platform never connected to. Terminations, transfers, and privilege drift are caught as they happen, revoked with approval on record, and packaged as evidence your auditor accepts.
See which of your apps were never in a review — no connectors, no migration, no commitment.
Your platform says green. Your auditor says otherwise.
A quarterly review is a photograph of one day. Between those days, people leave, contracts end, engineers transfer, and admin rights get granted and never rolled back. The control reads green the entire time, because the last review was completed on schedule.
GRC platforms run the quarterly exercise against the applications they integrate with. They miss the events in between, and they miss the applications that were never connected. Securest closes that window.
It is common to open a single application during a review and find forty-two users, six of whom left the company months ago. That review does not demonstrate control. It documents the absence of it, in writing, for the auditor.
An account that should have been closed in week one stays open until week twelve. That window is where breaches originate, and it repeats four times a year.
A typical stack: eight applications behind SSO, fourteen that are not. When someone leaves, the fourteen are handled by memory and a spreadsheet.
Names with no permission detail, no last login, and no way to act on what they see. Approval becomes a formality, and auditors test exactly that.
The decision is recorded and the record closes. Whether the account was actually removed is a separate act that usually goes unverified and unmeasured.
Stop guessing whether two accounts are the same person.
A review that lists accounts app by app produces noise, and noise is why reviewers rubber-stamp. We resolve every account to a real human across your HRIS, identity provider, and applications, then keep the provenance of how that account came to exist. When we flag something, your reviewers know it is real.
The same human arriving twice under two identities, two emails, and two start dates — reconciled to one person with one access history.
Personal-domain logins, name changes, plus-addressing, and second admin accounts all attach to the person who holds them.
Classified as non-human identities with a named owner and a justification, instead of silently dismissed by whoever ran the last review.
When the account was created, when it was last modified, who provisioned it, and the change log pulled from the source system where one exists.
Start and termination dates sit beside the account, so an account predating a start date or outliving a termination is obvious rather than inferred.
Find out what your last review missed — before your auditor does.
A completed review tells you what your reviewers looked at. It does not tell you what they never saw, and it does not tell you whether the revocations they ordered ever happened. We produce both, and the first one is free.
Of the 188 unreviewed, 23 hold customer data or production access and 11 have never appeared in any review since you started. We reconcile your full inventory against what was actually certified. No new connectors required.
We re-check every decision against the source system and report the aging, so marked for removal and removed stop being the same field on your report.
Cover the apps that never connect — without paying for SSO.
Most access reviews leave a pile of lingering apps that never integrate with the compliance platform, and those are exactly the ones that get skipped. Where an API or SCIM endpoint exists, we use it. Where it does not, we collect the user list with a purpose-built script, a structured import, or a governed task with proof of completion.
Single sign-on removes roughly 90–95% of the security risk on the apps it covers, because you can lock someone out centrally. It does not remove their permissions inside the app, and it does not reclaim the license. We surface both.
Coverage never depends on upgrading an app to an enterprise plan for SCIM or SAML. We have watched clients with 80+ applications get SSO budget clawed back mid-rollout and live with the gap. Access reviews are also a paid add-on module at most GRC platforms — commonly around $5,000 a year. With Securest, they are part of the engagement.
Every finding surfaced. Every revocation one click away.
Your reviewers stay in the loop — auditors require it. What changes is what reaches them: only the accounts that are genuinely a problem, with the evidence already attached.
Your GRC platform, identity-provider OAuth grants, MDM, and expense data reconciled together, with an in-scope decision recorded against each application.
Every account resolves to a real person and is checked against your personnel record. Terminated, transferred, over-privileged, and dormant accounts surface as named findings.
A named reviewer approves, the revocation executes through the application's own interface, and the confirmation is captured. Automatic deprovisioning is available per application.
Revocations re-verified against the source system, attestation recorded against every exception, and a signed package written back to your GRC platform.
Give your managers twelve decisions, not five hundred and eighty-four.
Reviewers rubber-stamp because you hand them everything. We hand them only the genuine exceptions, with the context a decision actually needs — role, privilege depth, last login, who provisioned it and when, and a recommendation — routed to the app owner who knows the answer.
See not just who has access, but what that access can do.
Standing admin rights, dormant admins, privileged accounts without MFA, and production access still held by someone who transferred months ago.
API tokens and shared logins inventoried with a named owner and a justification — the population most reviews quietly skip and auditors increasingly ask about.
A named human approves every revocation. We execute it, record the confirmation, and never act silently on your production systems.
Shadow IT surfaced from identity-provider OAuth grants and MDM inventory, feeding straight into your coverage gap instead of a separate report you never read.
Every sync, finding, decision, revocation, and verification written immutably from day one. No reconstructing last spring from memory and Slack threads.
Mapped to the access controls in SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and PCI DSS at once, and written back into the GRC platform you already run.
Fix the risk. The audit evidence takes care of itself.
Most teams work backwards: scramble for evidence at fieldwork and hope the underlying access was clean. Manage access as it changes and the record is already complete when the period closes.
The most common reason evidence gets rejected is mundane: a screenshot with no URL and no system clock, so the auditor cannot verify what was reviewed or when. Every artifact we generate carries both, automatically.
Clean it up before the observation window, not during it.
This is the single piece of advice our team gives every client entering an audit. If your access is messy when the window opens, the cleanup itself becomes the evidence. Auditors can see former employees sitting on access lists inside the observation period — and they have every right to write that up as a finding.
One full pass before day one, so anything ugly is remediated outside the period the auditor examines. This is almost always the highest-value week of the entire engagement.
Terminations inside the period get sampled and traced through every system. We catch each one the day it happens and document the revocation while it is still fresh.
The population, the decisions, the revocation confirmations, and the coverage statement are already sitting in your GRC platform, timestamped as they happened.
Every company is held to this control. The tooling was built for the enterprise.
The enterprise identity suites assume a dedicated identity team, a long implementation, and a budget that does not exist below the enterprise. You are held to the same control with none of the apparatus.
Tools that frame access as seat reclamation stop where it is cheap to reach. An unused licence is a line item. Unrevoked access is a breach and an audit exception.
Access reviews inside a compliance platform automate the workflow and the paperwork. They were never built to find the apps you did not connect, or to verify a revocation actually happened.
You own this control. You do not have an identity team.
You signed the certification commitment and you carry the breach risk. Access sits under both. Get it managed without hiring an identity team or pulling engineers off the roadmap.
You are the one who actually revokes. See what is still live, act on it in one place, and stop reconstructing offboarding history from memory the week before fieldwork.
Walk into fieldwork with the population, the decisions, the revocation proof, and the coverage statement already assembled — and no spreadsheet appendix to defend.
Access reviews are the first control we automated. They will not be the last.
We started here because it is the control with the clearest value and the widest gap between what platforms claim and what actually happens. The same approach extends across the compliance stack: take the mundane, repetitive exercises off your team piece by piece, so the hours they spend go to the work that genuinely requires security judgment.
Detection, revocation, and timestamped evidence written straight back to your GRC platform. The quarterly exercise becomes a background activity that runs every day.
Vulnerability scanning, evidence validation, questionnaire response, and structured remediation — each one a control that used to cost your team a week a quarter.
Automation belongs on the repetitive work. Risk decisions, architecture, and anything requiring real security discretion stay where they belong — with humans who understand your business.
Access is the leading cause of breaches and the leading exception on audit reports. Find out where yours stands.
We reconcile your full application inventory against what your last review actually certified, and hand you the list of applications that were never in it — with the accounts that should have been closed already flagged.
