Disclosed is a system and method for providing secure access control to an electronic network or device. By limiting the ability of a single administrator to act unilaterally without the agreement and/or notification of further system administrators, the data integrity and security of stored data, such as email accounts, may be enhanced and risk of compromise ameliorated. By permitting multiple administrators acting in a concert of action to access stored data, such as without notification of the email account holder, potential misconduct by email account holders may be audited.
