IT Separation of Duties question

[Jamie Schademan <Jamie.Schademan () CWU EDU>]

Hello,

Because of a turnover in our System Administrator position for PeopleSoft (patching, upgrade, moves to production), we 
(security) are being asked to allow a number of our PeopleSoft developers to have access to do the admin job function.  
I have provided information to leadership about the violation of Segregation of Duties, the ISACA SoD in IT Matrix, and 
other arguments for not doing this.

For reference we have an application group of approximately 23 people.  My recommendation has been to provide someone 
with the opportunity to upgrade into the PeopleSoft System Admin role, but that has not been well received.  They would 
just like to just have developers also do system admin work.

Can I get your input and experiences on this?

Thank you,
Jamie
