The Access Control team sits at the center of Bloomberg’s security infrastructure. Our platforms power entitlement enforcement, access governance, and secure data access across Bloomberg’s internal applications and infrastructure. The systems we build are deeply integrated into critical Bloomberg workflows and are designed to operate at enterprise scale with high availability, resilience, and transparency.

The Access Control team safeguards Bloomberg’s data and functionality through modern, highly available access control infrastructure. We play a critical role in Bloomberg’s data security and risk management initiatives – protecting information across every layer of the company’s technical stack.

Our team builds and maintains enterprise-grade applications and services that power privilege management workflows and policy enforcement across Bloomberg.

• Infrastructure for policy enforcement and auditability

• Automated workflows for secure access management

• Internal applications and tooling integrated into the Bloomberg Terminal
