For IT & Security Teams

Access requests lost in Slack create security gaps you can't audit.

When access requests bypass structured approval chains, IT teams face unauthorized access risks, compliance gaps, and an overloaded helpdesk. Approvals24 routes every request to the right approver with a complete audit trail.

Primary challenge

Unauthorized access risk when tool and system requests aren't properly routed

Without role-based approval chains, security-sensitive requests bypass the controls that keep systems safe. A Slack DM to the wrong admin becomes a compliance incident waiting to happen — and there's no record to prove what was approved, when, or by whom.

Other challenges IT & Security teams face

“Compliance audits expose undocumented access decisions.”

Access granted via Slack or email leaves no defensible trail for auditors. Reconstructing who approved what — and when — is slow and often inconclusive.

“Helpdesk drowns in low-priority tickets.”

Without pre-approval filtering, IT spends time on requests that should never have reached them — blocking higher-priority security work and frustrating both sides.

“Software procurement is ad-hoc and untracked.”

Tool purchases happen without IT visibility, creating shadow IT sprawl, unmanaged security risk, and budget waste that nobody can quantify until renewal time.

How Approvals24 works for IT & Security

Replace ad-hoc approvals with structured workflows built for your team.

IT Access Approval

Every access request — system, tool, or data — flows through a role-based approval chain. Approvals are logged immutably, ready for any audit request.

70% faster onboarding

IT Service Request

Structured intake with required fields reduces back-and-forth. IT teams get complete requests with proper context — and requesters know exactly where their request stands.

50% faster resolution

Helpdesk Ticket Filtering

Pre-approval workflows filter low-priority requests before they reach the helpdesk queue. IT focuses on work that actually requires their expertise.

35% less ticket noise

Software & Hardware Procurement

Tool and hardware purchases route through IT Security and Finance before any commitment is made — ending shadow IT and keeping procurement within sanctioned channels.

Full visibility, zero shadow IT
