Short answer

What is access matrix software?

Access matrix software documents who or which group has access to software, the assigned role, authentication method, effective permissions, status, and review history. Meridian supports organization-wide and project-specific records for team members, stakeholders, external people, and groups, with scheduled project access reviews and exportable audit records.

Included capabilities

Access governance records with review context.

Keep access assignments readable, reviewable, and connected to the projects they support.

Flexible access subjects

Create entries for team members, registered stakeholders, named external people, or groups.

Software and role context

Choose a software catalog item, assign a role, flag privileged roles, and record an authentication method.

Effective permissions

Use role-profile defaults or override config, billing, report, write, and view permissions per entry.

Organization and project scope

Maintain company-wide entries alongside separate access records for individual projects.

Scheduled access reviews

Record periodic, triggered, or closeout reviews with findings, actions, entry counts, and the next due date.

Status, history, and exports

Track active and revoked status, review entry history, and export CSV or print-ready reports.

How it works

Create an auditable access record in three steps.

Define the access

Select the software, role, subject, authentication method, and any permission overrides.
