In reality, while you may not have given access to your company's HR data to a technologist on your team, they may still be able to access the underlying database that stores this data," Mike Rulf, CTO of Americas Region, Syntax, told Help Net Security. "Another misconception is that your ERP system's access security is robust enough that you can allow people to access their ERP from the internet."
