In large organisations, managing user access reviews for hundreds of disconnected applications (applications not integrated with central identity governance and administration IGA solutions) remains a daunting challenge. Traditional role-based access control models ensure authorisation but often fail to maintain least privilege for disconnected systems due to integration complexities.1 This paper proposes a scalable and customisable framework for user access reviews for disconnected applications that bypasses the time-consuming and arduous task of application integration. The framework is split into pre-certification, certification and post-certification stages and leverages Python scripts to streamline reviews. The tool is deployable with or without an IGA solution, reduces risk and meets audit needs, offering identity and access management practitioners an efficient path to govern access across diverse systems.
