What is Just in Time Access?

Just-In-Time (JIT) access is a security strategy that minimizes the chances of unauthorized access or cyber attacks by only providing necessary permissions when they're needed. This approach eliminates the need for standing access rights, reducing the risk of potential breaches. The permissions are temporary and are revoked immediately after the task is completed, ensuring less exposure and vulnerability.

Benefits of Just in Time Access to

4me

1. Enhanced Operational Efficiency with JIT in 4me: Just In Time Access and Privilege Escalation in 4me allows IT services to provision access right when it's needed, reducing the management overhead of constantly monitoring and updating privileges. This approach improves operational efficiency while also ensuring that resources are utilised optimally.

2. Least Privilege Access for Comprehensive Security in 4me: By leveraging Just In Time Access, 4me ensures that users have minimal access rights, only as and when they need them, conforming to the principle of 'Least Privilege'. This greatly minimises the risk vectors, thereby enhancing overall system security.

3. Reduced Insider Threats with JIT Privilege Escalation: The chance of insider threats significantly reduce in 4me with the use of Just In Time Privilege Escalation, as it restricts users' access until the precise moment their duties demand higher privileges. The decreased access surface reduces the potential of unauthorized or malicious activities.

4. Streamlined Auditing and Compliance in 4me: The usage of Just In Time Access in 4me comfortably facilitates the monitoring and tracking of user access, thus simplifying the auditing process. This not only ensures transparency in operations but also assists in maintaining standards for compliance with various regulations.

Use Cases for Just in Time Access to

4me

1. An IT support specialist needs just-in-time (JIT) access to troubleshoot and fix a critical incident or application issue in the 4me environment that none of the current users can solve.  

2. If an internal audit is being conducted, the auditor might require JIT access to 4me to review service management processes, data and compliance status without giving them continuous unregulated access.  

3. For a software upgrade or integration of new applications, a project manager or developer may require JIT access to 4me to ensure smooth transition, reduce potential security risks and restrict access after completion.

How to Implement Just in Time Access to

4me

Entitle Just In Time Access - diagram- How to Implement Just in Time Access to

1. Preparatory Phase.

  • Evaluation
    Begin by noting who requires 4me access, the resources they are in need of, and why. Record existing access rights and examine if these can be restricted or abolished. Think about employing an authorization discovery tool for enhanced visibility.
  • Procedure Drafting
    Formulate clear procedures for both allocating and rescinding access. Ensure to include directives on who can request access, in what conditions, and for how long. Particularly for high-level roles, establish time-restricted guidelines.
  • Confirmed Source
    Synchronize your JIT access system with an Identity Provider (e.g., Okta, Google Workspace, Azure AD, OneLogin). This will serve as the absolute source for identities. De/escalating individual identities over shared accounts will result in improved authorization management and audit precision.

2. Implementation Phase.

  • Direct Access Requests
    Make the process smoother by allowing users to request access directly through the system instead of through people. Boost uptake rates by connecting with IM platforms like Slack or MS Teams. Ensure requests specify who's asking, the necessary service/resource/role, duration, and reason.
  • Approval process
    JIT access offers a chance for organizations to authorize approvals to individuals who have business context. Resource owners and business unit leads often have better insights than IT support staff. Utilize messaging platforms to prompt decision making by providing approvers with all relevant information.
  • Conditional Approval Workflows
    Incorporate your set policies into workflows dictating the access permissions. Include them in processes dictating who can allow access to what, and under which conditions. One way to handle this is by establishing if-then conditions. IF identity group “X” requires access to “Y”, obtain approval from “Z” and alert “M”.
  • Integrations
    Consider integrating JITA with other IT and security systems to broaden flexibility. Merge it with IT ticketing systems to automate access based on tickets' status. Connect it with data classification systems to tailor policies on data sensitivity. Ideally, tagging resources and grouping them together will excel this process. Incorporate it with on-call schedule software for automatic approvals during emergencies. Collaborate with training systems to allocate access based on training completion.

3. Ongoing Maintenance.

  • Routine Inspections
    Repeatedly inspect access logs to ensure JIT access operates as expected. Look for unusual activities or behaviors either directly or by feeding logs into your SIEM. Automate the user access review procedure to speed up information gathering, delegate reviewers, and ensure your system abides by relevant industry regulations or standards.
  • User Training
    Train users, especially those holding privileged access, on the importance of least privilege, JIT Access, and how it operates. Ensure users know how to request access when necessary.
  • Feedback Process
    Establish a regular check of your JIT access processes. Gather feedback from users and IT department to understand areas of potential improvement.

By adopting this structured approach, you can effectively implement a robust Just-in-Time Access system for 4me.
