Using Just-in-time Access to Reduce Cloud Security Risk
Ermetic co-founder explains how implementing JIT helps security teams move closer to achieving a least-privilege model and implementing zero trust security.
Excessive privileges continue to be headache for security professionals worldwide. As more and more organizations migrate to the cloud, users with excessive permissions can (often) unknowingly expand the blast radius of an attack, leaving their organization open to malicious activity.
In his recent article for Help Net Security, Ermetic co-founder and CBO Arick Goomanovsky explains how implementing JIT helps security teams move closer to achieving a least-privilege model and implementing zero trust security. He also explains how leveraging automation speeds up the process of granting and revoking permissions, without creating more work for security teams.
