A company is introducing a suite of AI-enabled assistants that compile user input into departmental records. Management is concerned about unauthorized modifications to important financial data. Which choice is best for preventing these unwanted changes?
Ask employees to let the new platform use their existing credentials for faster document edits
Grant the new platform an account with minimal privileges and capture any modifications in a log
Provide unrestricted administrative rights to each of the new platform’s services
Turn off versioning so the new platform can maintain a single authoritative copy
Granting the new platform an account with minimal privileges and capturing changes in an audit trail prevents overreach. It supports a least-privileged model that logs unexpected activity. Trusting personal user accounts or giving unlimited privileges weakens accountability and leads to greater risk. Turning off version control makes changes harder to review, which increases the chance of unnoticed alterations.
