Developers should never have direct access to the production environment. From an audit perspective this is a big no-no as this poses fraud risks. Also if one developer makes a mistake he can take down your critical systems which could have a high impact on your business.

Why Developers should not have access to Production?! Can someone explain this crazy IIA rationale. I think I and II is more imporant as to have a transition of app/system from dev to test and then from test to production environment.
