Access Control Chaos: What Buyers Find in Your Admin Panels
Internal tools are built for trusted colleagues and rarely revisited. Diligence looks at them anyway.
Admin interfaces are written quickly, for a small team that trusts each other, and then grow capabilities for a decade. They routinely hold the broadest permissions and the weakest controls in the entire system.
Typical findings
- Support staff able to read or export full customer records
- Shared administrative accounts with no attribution
- Impersonation features without logging or consent
- Former employees whose access was never revoked
An access review and an audit log on the impersonation path resolves most of this in a single sprint.
