Old accounts: silent risks in your SMEs

For many SMBs, old accounts simply remain. Why?
Because there is simply no time, oversight or system to clean it up properly. Meanwhile:

Employees out of service? Account remains active
Guest accounts persist for months without login
No visibility into who has access to what
Old accounts pose a risk of data leakage
And manual cleanup … nobody gets around to that

 

Recognizable? You are not the only one

Our poll shows¹:

• 23% do it manually (and sometimes forget)

• 23% have no idea or insight

• 46% have it partially automated

• Only 8% have it fully automated

That means that 9 out of 10 companies here are at unnecessary risk. Not because they want to, but because it falls by the wayside.
