The Access page allows you to review your employees' access to the vendors you have integrated with Vanta.
The Access Page
The purpose of this page is to satisfy controls related to access management. You should avoid having shared accounts or accounts that do not have an owner. While Vanta will try to map owners for specific integrations automatically, you may have to manually map the user from the service to the employee in Vanta. If you have any service accounts, it is recommended that you mark them as a service account.
- From the left-hand navigation panel, select Access
- Each line item gives you information about the Owner of each account, which groups they belong to, and the status of the user:
Assigning & Reassigning an Account
- To reassign a user to an account, select the pencil icon next to the account that needs to be changed.
- From here, you can:
- Add a new person: Add a new person to Vanta by entering their first name, last name, group association, and start date. This will create a new employee on the People Page and was likely not included in your Identity Provider.
-
Assign an External User: Mark this user as a user outside of your organization. These users have access to the system but are not included in the Identity Provider and have limited access to your system (ie. external slack connections).
- Mark as Service Account: Recognize this user as a bot, or a shared alias email
- Assign to User: Filter for an existing user and assign
