In an organization, an IT administrator is tasked with reviewing user account access controls. What is the primary goal of conducting regular account access reviews?
To confirm that all user accounts are active
To reduce the number of active accounts in the system
To maintain compliance with external regulations
To ensure proper alignment of permissions with user roles
The main objective of account access reviews is to ensure that access rights align with the current roles and responsibilities of users. This process helps identify and remediate any discrepancies that may lead to unauthorized access or privilege escalation. The other options may include valid security practices, but do not capture the specific aim of the review process. For instance, just verifying account statuses does not address the appropriateness of permissions granted.
