It's no secret that in business, time is money. For many organizations, however, valuable time is being lost as business users wait for hours, days, or even longer to receive their requests back from IT. As data becomes more and more critical to decision-making processes, business users need greater access to information than ever before.
To meet the data needs of the business, many organizations are adopting self-service models. By providing data access to users across the organization, businesses can become more agile and more efficient. With great reward, however, comes great risk. While increasing access can enable users to retrieve the information they need, it can also create vulnerability for the security of information stored within the business' databases.
