2.High Risk Sites > SP_OpenAccess Job

The 2.High Risk Sites Job Group provides insight into any high risk repositories and high risk data that may exist within the targeted SharePoint environment. High risk data is effectively open to the entire organization through modification of SharePoint permissions to apply well known security principals such as NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users. The data must be monitored closely because of its exposure.

2.High Risk Sites > SP_OpenAccess Job in the Jobs Tree

The job group is comprised of the SP_OpenAccess Job. Minimizing your attack surface is the goal. Open site collections can potentially provide access to privileged data, greatly increasing your vulnerability. The SP_OpenAccess Job will identify places in the environment where data is able to be accessed by a very large amount of employees.

It is dependent on data collected by the SharePoint Access Auditing or SharePoint Sensitive Data Discovery Auditing (SEEK) components of the 0.Collection Job Group.
