Abstract
This standard defines the requirements which, when applied, will define identity and access management standards to national policing IT systems. Areas considered include account management, access control mechanisms, privileged access, account provisioning, account review, access suspension and termination, guest accounts, third-party access and audit requirements. This standard adheres to the National Policing Community Security Policy Framework and is a suitable reference for community members, notably those who build and implement IT systems on behalf of national policing. This standard also relates to other standards such as passwords, system access, privileged access management, and vetting, which the audience should also consider.
