Permissions and rights for security professionals inside organizations

A policy and or procedure question: I am curious to know what levels of access security professionals are granted inside organizations. Should the security team maintain administrative and root type access for all systems? Should there be a process by which they can obtain this level of access at any time if they don't maintain it constantly? Should security professionals be limited to only read access but to all data? Or, should security professionals only have access upon request for any system, data, or resource? Are there any policies or best practices that address this issue? Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide, acrypto --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ethical Hacking at the InfoSec Institute.
