Change Management & Approvals

Every "can I get access?" becomes a request with a reason, a time window, named targets and an approver on record.

Overview

Access requests that leave a record

Informal privilege grants are where access sprawl and unexplained changes start. Tanflow change management sends every privileged access request through an approval workflow, with a stated reason, a time window and specific targets, and then records what happened during that window.

Structured requests

The requester gives a business reason, the time window they need and the exact target connections.

Approve, reject or withdraw

Approvers see the full context for each request. Requesters can withdraw their own request before it is approved.

Time-boxed windows

Every request has a start and an end, so approved access never runs on indefinitely.

Named targets and members

Each request lists exactly which connections and which people the access covers.

Activity tracked to the request

Sessions and actions during the window are recorded against the request so they can be reviewed afterwards.

Why it matters

What you can show an auditor

  • Every privileged change is tied to a reason and an approver
  • A reviewable record of what happened during each change
  • Evidence for change-control and access-governance audits

FAQ

Common questions

How is this different from Just-in-Time access?

JIT is about on-demand elevation that expires on its own. Change management adds a formal approval workflow with reasons, targets and a review of activity afterwards. The two work together.

Is activity during an approved window recorded?

Yes. Sessions on the request's targets are tracked against that request, so approvers can see exactly what was done.
