Implement Strong Access Control Measures Sample Clauses
The "Implement Strong Access Control Measures" clause requires organizations to establish robust systems that restrict access to sensitive data and resources only to authorized individuals. In practice, this involves using methods such as unique user IDs, secure authentication processes, and regular reviews of user permissions to ensure that only those with a legitimate need can access certain information or systems. The core function of this clause is to minimize the risk of unauthorized access, thereby protecting confidential data and reducing the likelihood of security breaches.
