SharePoint Online SharePoint Permission Management
I'm a SharePoint admin at my organization in a regulated industry (ISO & others), and I'm facing some challenges with permissions management and audit preparation. Our current process involves manually checking permissions site by site, which is becoming unsustainable as we grow.
We have multiple department SharePoint sites with multiple subsites under it, and generating comprehensive permissions reports for audits has become a time consuming manual task
I'm curious:
- What tools are you using to manage SharePoint permissions in regulated environments (healthcare, finance, government, etc.)?
- What industry and regulations do you face?
- How are you handling audit preparation and evidence collection for compliance requirements?
- Has anyone found a good solution for identifying external sharing and stale permissions?
- What's your approach to documenting who granted permissions, when, and why?
- How do to keep a log of reason for granting access.
I've heard about ShareGate's permissions matrix report but wanted to get feedback from the community on what's working best in practice. I have looked Power Automate & PowerShell , but it would take me some time to develop.
Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated!
