Implementing the least privilege principle in email marketing involves several steps:
Identify Roles and Responsibilities: Clearly define who needs access to what. For example, a content creator may need access to email templates but not to the entire subscriber list. Use Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Implement RBAC to assign permissions based on job roles. This makes it easier to manage who has access to different parts of your email marketing platform. Regularly Review Access Levels: Periodically review and update access levels to ensure that they are still appropriate. People’s roles change, and so should their access permissions. Implement Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Use MFA to add an extra layer of security. Even if login credentials are compromised, MFA can prevent unauthorized access.
