Secure your cloud architecture with just in time access to Beyond Identity, providing efficient management and enhanced cybersecurity measures.
Skip to the Entitle integrationJIT (Just-In-Time) access is a security feature in many systems that limits access to resources until the exact moment it is needed. It's purpose is to reduce the risk of unauthorized or unintended access to sensitive information or systems. It's commonly used within cloud computing and virtualization technologies to improve security and compliance.
1. **Enhanced Least Privilege Access:** Just in time access in Beyond Identity ensures that users are granted the absolute minimum permissions necessary for their tasks. This is aligned with the principle of least privilege which reduces the potential attack surface and accordingly, it reduces the chances of data breaches.
2. **Mitigated Insider Threats:** Just in time privilege escalation minimizes the risk of insider threats. By ensuring users only receive escalated permissions when necessary and revoking them immediately after use, it reduces the opportunity for dubious activities or misuse of access rights.
3. **Increased Operational Efficiency:** Implementing just in time access in Beyond Identity streamlines workflows, as users gain swift, on-demand access to necessary resources. By automating the process of granting and revoking access, it eliminates the need for manual handling, thereby saving time and boosting productivity.
4. **Facilitated Compliance Auditing:** The use of just in time privilege escalation simplifies auditing processes. It records each instance of privilege escalation and access, providing a clear audit trail that helps organizations easily monitor and demonstrate compliance with security regulations.
1. Emergency Server Maintenance: Should a server or system unexpectedly crash or experience issues, temporary just-in-time admin access can be granted to IT staff or third-party vendors to perform urgent maintenance tasks and quickly resolve the problem.
2. Internal Audit or Compliance Checks: During internal audits or compliance checks, auditors may need temporary access to certain sensitive systems or data. Just-in-time admin access allows these tasks to be carried out securely and without compromising long-term access controls.
3. Onboarding New Staff or Contractors: For new employees, or even short-term contractors who may need temporary administrative access for their work, just-in-time access can be granted securely, limiting the potential for misuse of the access credentials and interruptions to the workflow.
