Service Account Users with Admin Privileges

Overview

The "Service Account Users with Admin Privileges" widget helps identify service accounts that have been granted administrative privileges. Service accounts should be tightly controlled, and this widget provides visibility into those with excessive permissions to ensure compliance with security policies.

Why It Matters

For IT Engineers:

1. Service Account Management:

   • Helps track and manage service accounts that may have admin privileges, ensuring they are used for specific purposes only.

2. Permissions Control:

   • Ensures that service accounts are granted only the minimum necessary permissions, reducing operational risk.

For Security Engineers:

1. Risk Reduction:

   • Minimizes the risk of malicious activity by ensuring service accounts are not misused with excessive privileges.

2. Security Oversight:

   • Provides visibility into service account permissions, allowing for proactive management of access rights and reducing security vulnerabilities.
