What is Just in Time Access?

Just-In-Time (JIT) Access is a cybersecurity strategy that provides temporary access to resources only when it's needed. It helps to reduce the risk of attacks by limiting the time window an attacker can take advantage of compromised credentials or vulnerabilities. In cloud environments, JIT access is often automated which grants or revokes permissions in real-time based on pre-defined policies and user roles.

Benefits of Just in Time Access to

Amplitude

1. Enhanced Least Privilege Access: Utilizing just in time access in Amplitude ensures that users only obtain the exact permissions necessary for their tasks, reducing the risk of unauthorized access or modification of valuable customer data. This approach adheres to the principle of least privilege (POLP), an integral part of modern cybersecurity best practices, improving overall Amplitude system security.

2. Reduction of Insider Threats & Human Errors: Just in time privilege escalation helps in minimizing the risk of insider threats by only granting elevated permissions when necessary. This minimizes potential damage from accidental misuse or intentional abuse of privileges, as extended privileges are only provided for a specific task and time.

3. Improved Operational Efficiency: This approach boosts operational efficiency by allowing for more granular, real-time control over permissions. Instead of sweeping, persistent accesses that may not be necessary, Amplitude, following the just in time model, enables precise privilege assignments aligning with specific tasks, optimizing resource allocation and system performance.

4. Streamlined Auditing for Regulatory Compliance: Just in time access and privilege escalation enhance the transparency and auditability of the Amplitude system. With this methodology, every access or privilege escalation is documented, making it easier to audit user activities, ensure regulatory compliance, and identify any abnormal activity promptly.

Use Cases for Just in Time Access to

Amplitude

1. Incident Response: If a critical incident or security breach occurs, JIT admin access allows immediate intervention by a network or system administrator, enabling them to swiftly fix the issue and mitigate any damage.

2. System Maintenance: During system updates or maintenance tasks, JIT admin access can provide technicians or engineers with the necessary access permissions to complete their tasks, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the maintenance process.

3. Auditing & Compliance Checks: JIT admin access can be granted to auditors or compliance officers, allowing them the ability to review system logs, access records, and other necessary data without the need for permanent high-level access, thereby reducing security risks.

How to Implement Just in Time Access to

Amplitude

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

1. Planning.

  • Assessment
    Start by figuring out who requires access to Amplitude, the resources they require, and the underlying reason. Record current access rights and evaluate whether they can be restricted or removed. You may want to use an entitlement discovery tool for better visibility.
  • Policy creation
    Develop unambiguous policies for both granting and revoking access. These should include directives about who can ask for access, under what conditions, and for how long. Especially for roles with higher privileges, set time-limited conditions.
  • Source of truth
    Synchronize your JIT access system with an Identity Provider (for instance, Okta, Google Workspace, Azure AD, OneLogin). This will serve as the ultimate source for identities. De/escalating individual identities over shared accounts will provide better command over authorization and accuracy in audits.

2. Execution.

  • Self-serve access requests
    Streamline the process by letting users request access through the system, not individuals. Boost adoption rates by incorporating with IM platforms such as Slack or MS Teams. Make sure requests contain details of who's asking, the necessary service/resource/role, duration, and purpose.
  • Approval process
    JIT access gives organizations the chance to delegate approvals to individuals equipped with business context. Resource owners and business unit managers often are more informed than IT helpdesks. Leverage messaging platforms for swift responses, providing approvers with all required information for a well-informed decision.
  • Conditional approval workflows
    Incorporate your already established policies into workflows that decide access permissions. Incorporate them into workflows that define who can access what, and under what conditions. One successful technique is assigning if-then conditions. IF identity group “X” asks for access to “Y”, seek approval from “Z” and inform “M”.
  • Integrations
    Consider including JITA with other IT and security systems for more flexibility; Integrate with IT ticketing systems for automated accessibility based on ticket status. Couple with data classification systems to amend policies depending on data sensitivity. The ability to tag resources and bundle them together can expedite this process. Interface with on-call schedule software for automated approvals during emergencies. Use training systems to allow access based on training completion.
  • Automated provisioning and dispossession
    You must understand Amplitude thoroughly to effectively allow and revoke access within the service. This is critical for JIT Access because it reduces the need to wait for individuals to free up time permitting automated dispossession of access, which is central to JIT access and the principle of least privilege access (POLP). The ideal scenario would be to manage all permissions in one place, without needing to build or manage an environment for every application in your organization.
  • Access methods
    For Amplitude JIT Access, APIs are often better due to their flexibility and real-time capabilities. Nevertheless, a blend might be necessary. For instance, using SAML for authentication, SCIM for user provisioning, and APIs for detailed access control decisions.

3. Maintenance.

  • Regular audits
    Regularly scrutinize access logs to confirm that JIT access operates as it should. Look for any uncommon patterns or behaviors either directly or by feeding the logs into your SIEM. Automation of user access review can expedite evidence collection, delegate reviewers, and ensure your system complies with relevant industry regulations or standards.
  • User training
    Inform users, particularly those with high privileges, about the importance of least privilege, JIT Access, and how it operates. Ensure users know how to request access when needed.
  • Feedback loop
    Maintain a consistent review of your JIT access processes. Gather feedback from users and IT personnel to understand where enhancements can be made.

By adhering to this structured approach, you'll be able to effectively implement a resilient Just-in-Time Access system for Amplitude.
