# SaaS Admin Hygiene and Least Privilege
One-sentence definition: Minimizing overprivileged SaaS admins and risky defaults through config baselines and reviews.
## Key Facts
- Enforce SSO/MFA for admins; break-glass accounts with tight controls.
- Role-based admin scopes (reader vs config vs billing).
- Periodic access recertifications; just-in-time elevation.
- Monitor risky shares, external links, and public objects.
- SSPM provides misconfig visibility and fixes.
- **Verify:** check official (ISC)² CBK and current exam outline.
## Exam Relevance
- Pick missing SaaS control that prevents mass data exposure.
**Mnemonic:** “Few admins, fewer rights.”
## Mini Scenario
Q: Thousands of files shared publicly—what to add?
A: SSPM/CASB monitoring with automated unshare and alerts.
## Revision Checklist
- Name 3 admin protections.
- Define break-glass control.
- State one monitoring metric.
