PCI DSS 4.0 A3.4.1: A3.4.1 Six-monthly review of user accounts and access privileges

User accounts and access privileges on in-scope system components must be reviewed at least every six months so the reviewer can confirm they are still appropriate for each person's job function and that every access right has been approved. Related PCI DSS requirement 7. Guidance: the review is also a chance to catch accounts of terminated users and third parties whose access is no longer needed. Applies only to designated entities. Objective under the customized approach: not eligible for the customized approach; only the defined approach can be used.
