Abstract
A method for automatic management of user permissions in an organization including automatically grouping users into a plurality of user clusters based on at least one similarity between users in each user cluster, for each user cluster, automatically generating a set of cluster user permissions, the set of cluster user permissions including user permissions belonging to users in the cluster and actively used by at least one user in the cluster and for each user cluster, automatically modifying user permissions of each user in each cluster in accordance with the set of cluster user permissions.
Claims20
A method for automatic management of user permissions in an organization comprising:
- automatically grouping users into a plurality of user clusters based on at least one similarity between users in each said user cluster;
- for each user cluster, automatically generating a set of cluster user permissions, said set of cluster user permissions comprising user permissions belonging to users in said cluster and actively used by at least one user in said cluster;
- and
- for each user cluster, automatically modifying user permissions of each user in said each cluster in accordance with said set of cluster user permissions.
A method for management of user permissions comprising:
- automatically grouping users into a plurality of user clusters based on a similarity between users in each said user cluster;
- for each user cluster, automatically generating a set of cluster user permissions, said set of cluster user permissions comprising user permissions belonging to users in said cluster and actively used by at least one user in said cluster;
- and
- for each user cluster, automatically providing a user-sensible output comprising a recommendation to modify user permissions of each user in accordance with said set of cluster user permissions.
A system for automatic management of user permissions in an organization comprising:
- a cluster generation module operative to automatically group users into a plurality of user clusters based on at least one similarity between users in each said user cluster;
- a cluster permission generation module operative, for each user cluster, to automatically generate a set of cluster user permissions, said set of cluster user permissions comprising user permissions belonging to users in said user cluster and actively used by at least one user in said cluster;
- and
- a user permission modification module operative, for each user cluster, to automatically modify user permissions of each user in said each cluster in accordance with said set of cluster user permissions.
