Melania leads her organization's identity management team and wants to ensure that roles are properly updated when staff members change to new positions. What issue should she focus on for those staff members to avoid future issues with role definition?

Answer Options

A

Registration

B

Privilege creep

C

Deprovisioning

D

Accountability

Correct Answer: B

Explanation

Privilege creep is a constant concern when staff change roles over time. Privileges from previous roles may be easy to forget or to retain during transition because staff may continue to help cover the tasks or processes the individual previously performed. Over time, these forgotten rights and privileges can stack, leaving the staff member with rights that their current role should not have. Registration is a concern for new staff, while de-provisioning is a concern for departing staff. Accountability is typically provided by IAM systems by authenticating and logging access and privilege usage.
