Managing Access Across Roles and Users
When you are trying to manage an enterprise event it just starts very simply but with the passage of time, the difficulty level of the event just swiftly increases usually when the workers move from one designation to another team, project or position. So to manage all this, you shall require a lot of time and this gets very puzzling for the manager who is looking forward to the event e.g. security means, IT data management and various other things depending on the company which is organizing the event.
Mostly when the organizations give access to the teams so that they can easily drive business and the technologies forward, the data needs to be balanced between the operations and the risk. When one organization grants permission to the respective teams to access the data the costs may increase, use up the precious time and just put one on the stake, especially when the third parties are involved in the operations. Putting it in a more simplified form, the greater the data is exposed the greater is the risk of outcomes which are undesired just like jammers and hackers, leakage of sensitive data to the unwanted parties. All this may set conflict right in the middle of data policies and hence needs to be taken care of.
