Identify Critical Assets and Resources
Which assets are most critical to protect? Identifying these resources is vital for a robust RBAC implementation. This task ensures that priorities are clear and aligned with business goals. The desired result is a categorized list that guides the access control measures. Keep potential asset classification challenges in mind and bring in subject matter experts to tackle them efficiently.
Don’t overlook the importance of understanding which assets hold more weight. Deploying resources wisely tends to yield better protection and operational resilience.

Map Roles to Responsibilities
Does your current role architecture reflect employee responsibilities effectively? This task maps roles to respective responsibilities, ensuring everyone has the access they need—no more, no less. Successful mapping influences the efficiency and security of your organization. Bridging gaps between designated roles and actual responsibilities can be tricky but rewarding once navigated.
Think of this step as setting the foundation for judicious role assignments, which further strengthens your security posture.
