Segregation of Duties
Define access conflicts and prevent toxic role combinations before they happen. AccessHive automatically blocks requests that would create SoD violations — no manual review needed, no audit findings for conflicts that should never have existed.
Request blocked: SoD violation
J. Smith cannot hold Campaign Manager + Billing Admin
The problem
Without segregation of duties...
No SoD enforcement
Without automated conflict detection, toxic role combinations are granted freely. The person who creates campaigns can also approve their own spend.
Toxic role combinations
Team members accumulate conflicting access over time. A media buyer who also has billing admin access can approve their own expenses.
Audit findings for conflicts
External auditors consistently flag SoD violations as control weaknesses. Each finding requires costly remediation and damages your compliance posture.

Real-time request blocking
When a provisioning request would create a SoD conflict, AccessHive blocks it before it reaches the platform. Requesters see exactly why and which rule was triggered.

Conflict reporting and analytics
Track blocked requests, identify users with the most conflict attempts, and report SoD enforcement effectiveness to auditors with pre-built dashboards.
How it works
Step by step
Define conflict rules
Specify which role and access combinations are prohibited. Set rules at the platform level, client level, or across your entire agency.
Automatic enforcement
Every access request is checked against your SoD rules in real time. Violating requests are blocked before they reach any platform, with clear explanations.
Monitor and report
Track enforcement metrics over time. Generate SoD compliance reports showing rules, blocked requests, and zero-violation evidence for auditors.
