The thesis studies the structure of permission management system used in a client organization and the ways to make it better and more simplified. The aim is to study what type of structure would best serve the client company and then create a new permission management structure based on the findings of the research.

To find out the best way to introduce the new structure and how it will improve the permission management in the client organization. Firstly the current structure will be examined. Secondly the existing structure will be remodeled to meet the needs of the client organization and to support role based permission structures. Thirdly the new permission management structure will be implemented as a part of the permission management system.
The study results in new permission management structure that can be implemented as a company wide solution for permission management but with little effort can also be used as a basis for enterprise wide solution to permission management. The value of this study comes from the saved time between the permission request and the time of permission delivery, the saved man hours in the permission request process and from increased information security as well as cutting the permissions that are not required for completing user’s daily assignments.
