Document background
This User Access Review Policy is designed for organizations operating in Malaysia that need to establish and maintain systematic controls over user access rights to their systems and data. The policy becomes necessary when organizations need to demonstrate compliance with Malaysian data protection laws, particularly the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 and related cybersecurity regulations. It includes detailed procedures for regular access reviews, role-based access control validation, and documentation requirements. The document is particularly crucial for organizations handling sensitive data, operating in regulated industries, or those seeking to maintain robust information security governance frameworks. Its implementation helps organizations prevent unauthorized access, maintain compliance, and ensure proper segregation of duties.
