Who Can Benefit from SoD?

If your organisation manages financial transactions, sensitive data, or operates an ERP system, this solution is essential to reduce risk and stay compliant.

Organisations operating under SOX, GDPR, HIPAA or POPIA

Enterprises with multi-role, cross-functional access structures

Security, Compliance, and Operational Risk teams

ERP Administrators and IT Governance leads

Case Study 1: Strengthening Access Control in a Leading Financial Institution

Industry: 

Financial Services

 

Challenge: 

A major financial services provider struggled to manage user access and enforce compliance standards. 

Manual tracking of SoD conflicts was time-consuming, error-prone, and lacked transparency.

 

Solution: 

EnterpriseWorx implemented a fully automated SoD monitoring platform integrated with SYSPRO. 

The platform provided real-time visibility into access conflicts and enabled proactive risk mitigation.

 

Results:

✔ 95% reduction in manual effort for access audits
✔ 100% compliance with internal and external regulations
✔ Enhanced security posture through real-time alerts and monitoring

🚀 Transforming access control and compliance—one business at a time!

Case Study 2: Global Manufacturing – Eliminating Access Conflicts

Industry: 

Manufacturing 

 

The Challenge: 

A global manufacturing enterprise lacked controls over access roles in their SYSPRO ERP system, particularly between procurement and payment functions—creating risk of financial mismanagement and fraud.

 

The Solution:

EnterpriseWorx deployed a real-time SoD monitoring system. 

Access violations were mapped across departments, and automated approval workflows were established to manage mitigation and access reviews.

The Results:

✔  70% reduction in fraudulent transactions in major regions

✔  80% faster compliance reviews via automated reports

✔ Zero major audit findings following implementation

Case Study 3: Financial Services Firm – Strengthening Regulatory Compliance

Industry: 

Finance

 

The Challenge:

A leading financial institution needed to enforce strict compliance with SOX and GDPR but relied heavily on manual audits. 

Unauthorised access to financial data posed serious reputational and regulatory risks.

 

The Solution:

EnterpriseWorx implemented an automated SoD risk assessment framework tailored to the organisation’s risk profile. 

Custom rules were applied to limit high-risk activity while preserving operational flexibility.

 

The Results:

✔ 100% compliance with SOX and GDPR requirements.
✔ 80% faster audit preparation, reducing dependency on manual efforts.
✔ Automated role-based access control, significantly reduced exposure to fraud.

Case Study 4: Retail Chain – Preventing Insider Fraud
 

Industry: 

Retail 

 

The Challenge:

A national retail chain discovered that store managers had overlapping access to approve POs and process payments—creating a high-risk scenario for insider fraud. 

Manual reviews failed to catch these early enough.

 

The Solution:

EnterpriseWorx implemented a real-time SoD monitoring system to flag and restrict high-risk access combinations. 

A centralized role-based access framework was introduced. 

Where segregation wasn’t feasible, documented mitigations and controls were applied.

 

The Results:

✔ Eliminated high-risk fraud opportunities within 90 days.
✔  Improved financial controls, reducing fraudulent transactions by 60%.
✔  Gained Full visibility into access conflicts, allowing for proactive risk resolutions.

Case Study 5: Healthcare Provider – Ensuring Patient Data Security

Industry: 

Healthcare 

 

The Challenge:

A large healthcare provider faced HIPAA compliance concerns due to staff with access to both patient records and billing. 

This created potential data breaches and privacy violations.

 

The Solution:

EnterpriseWorx deployed a role-based SoD platform that enforced strict access separation. 

Only authorised staff could access medical records or billing systems, not both. 

Regular audits and real-time alerts ensured continuous compliance.

 

The Results:

✔ 100% compliance with HIPAA and internal data protection policies.

✔ Fully Eliminated unauthorised access to patient records.

✔ Reduced incident resolution time by 40%, improving operational responsiveness

Case Study 6: Energy Corporation – Securing Critical Infrastructure

Industry: 

Energy

 

The Challenge:

An energy company discovered that engineers had permissions to both configure systems and approve changes. 

This posed significant risks to the integrity of operational technology (OT) systems.

 

The Solution:

EnterpriseWorx implemented an SoD policy framework that separated configuration access from approval privileges. 

Real-time alerting and full audit trails were established to track system changes and ensure accountability.

 

The Results:

✔ Zero unauthorized system modifications since implementation

✔ 65% reduction in operational risk exposure

✔ Improved response time to potential threats with centralized visibility

Transform Your Security & Compliance with SoD

At EnterpriseWorx, we help businesses eliminate security risks, ensure compliance, and optimise operational efficiency with our Segregation of Duties (SoD) solutions.

Are you ready to strengthen your security posture? Let’s talk!

Enterprise Access Risk Intelligence 
Strengthen Security. Drive Compliance.

Prevent Fraud, Ensure Compliance, and Protect Your Business

In today’s evolving digital landscape, organisations must ensure that no single individual holds unchecked access to critical business functions. This principle - Segregation of Duties (SoD) - plays a vital role in preventing fraud, operational errors, and compliance violations by distributing access rights across users, groups or roles in your business systems.

At EnterpriseWorx, our intelligent, automated SoD platform helps businesses identify, monitor, and mitigate SoD risks or conflicts, ensuring ongoing compliance, security, and operational integrity.

🚀 Gain Control. Reduce Exposure. Achieve Compliance.

Why Segregation of Duties Matters?

Implementing an effective SoD framework ensures that responsibilities are appropriately separated, reducing risks and reinforcing security across your ERP environment. Without effective SoD controls, organisations face increased risks:

Green Marble Texture

Fraud & Insider Threats

Excessive access can lead to data breaches and financial misconduct.

Costly Operational Errors

Lack of oversight leads to duplicate payments, process failures, and misreporting.

 Regulatory Violations 
 

Non-compliance with SOX, GDPR, HIPAA, POPIA can result in severe penalties.

Poor Governance Visibility 

Unclear ownership of access roles weakens internal controls.
