Approva Corporation - Continuous Controls Monitoring Software

Approva’s Approach

Approva makes the periodic review of employees’ access to applications, shared drives, mobile devices and sensitive information a straightforward exercise for IT and managers by automating the end-to-end process for reviewing user access rights across all sensitive applications.

Approva Certification Manager gathers the data for each review from enterprise applications, databases, directories and other file sources, routes the information to the appropriate reviewers, tracks actions taken, facilitates sign-off by senior management and maintains a complete historical record for auditors. Automated escalations and status tracking ensure participation and enforce deadlines saving precious time and minimizes organizational risk by ensuring appropriate access throughout the enterprise.
