What is Segregation of Duties?
Segregation of duties (SoD) ensures a user’s access privileges do not come into conflict or potentially violate business policies. In practice, SoD divides business processes between multiple users in order to limit the risk of fraud and error. Successfully managing segregation of duties conflicts is also key to achieving compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX.) As the burden of SoD compliance grows, organizations must look to technology to help them automate tedious manual processes and reinforce internal controls. Appsian provides the most comprehensive solution for streamlining, managing and enforcing SoD.
