Abstract

Enforcing authorization controls for an approved software change on a target system is provided. A user is validated to perform a set of actions. The set of actions performed by the validated user is monitored to determine whether the set of actions conform to an approved process for the approved software change on the target system. A deviation from the approved process is detected based on determining that the set of actions do not conform to the approved process during the monitoring. In response to detecting the deviation from the approved process, an alert is sent regarding the deviation.
