Segregation of Duties

Ensure Compliance and Reduce Risk with Segregation of Duties

Test Drive →

Effective Segregation of Duties (SoD) is critical to safeguarding your organization against fraud, errors, and compliance breaches. By clearly defining roles and responsibilities, SoD ensures that no single individual has control over critical tasks within an ERP system. With ThirdLine’s SoD solution, your organization can maintain accountability, reduce financial risks, and comply with government regulations.

Overlapping Roles

Without proper role definitions, employees may be assigned conflicting tasks, such as both approving and processing payments, increasing the risk of fraud or errors.

Thousands of Confusing Permissions

With thousands of permissions available in an ERP system, it becomes difficult to understand what each one does and how they interact

Insufficient Monitoring

If organizations don’t continuously monitor user activities, conflicting roles or access privileges can go unnoticed, allowing for unchecked actions within the ERP system.

No Formal SoD Policies

Organizations without formalized SoD policies often lack clear guidelines on who should perform specific tasks, leading to a breakdown in internal controls and increased risk of compliance breaches.

What happens if it is unsolved

Why Segregation of Duties Matters

Increased Risk of Fraud

Without proper segregation of duties, individuals may have too much control over critical processes, making it easier for them to commit fraud.

Compliance Violations

A lack of role separation can lead to non-compliance with regulatory standards, resulting in findings in audits.

Cyber Threats

When roles and access are not properly segregated, your system is more vulnerable to cyber threats, as unauthorized users may gain access to sensitive data or functions.

Lack of Accountability

When roles aren’t clearly defined, it becomes difficult to track who is responsible for specific actions, leading to inefficiencies and errors.
