1 / 3
01Identity & Access
Shared Application
A small organization wants to make unauthorized access to a shared business application harder before someone signs in.
02Monitoring & Detection
Suspicious Sign-In
The team also needs to recognize unusual activity. A control that prevents access does not replace evidence about what happened.
03Recovery & Continuity
Account Recovery
An authorized employee cannot access their account. The team needs to restore access through an established process rather than bypass the controls.
Illustrative scenarios. Photographs show professional settings, not TWIY students or customer endorsements.
