Ensure robust security with just in time access to Forma. Experience enhanced operational efficiency in cloud computing while mitigating risks.
Skip to the Entitle integrationJust-In-Time (JIT) access refers to an information technology strategy that restricts access to network resources until they are needed. Under this strategy, users are required to request access each time they need to use a resource, which is only granted for a specific period of time and for a specific purpose. This approach improves security by reducing the risk of unauthorized access and the potential misuse of resources or data.
1. Enhanced Security through Least Privilege Access: Just in time access ensures that users in Forma are granted the absolute minimum privileges necessary to complete their tasks. This significantly reduces the attack surface area and mitigates risks associated with excessive privileges, like unauthorized data manipulation or breaches.
2. Mitigation of Insider Threats: The just in time privilege escalation feature in Forma makes it more difficult for insiders with malicious intent to access sensitive resources, as it limits their permissions until such times when they are necessary. By strictly defining who can perform specific actions and under what circumstances, organizations can prevent unauthorized access, leaks, or data misuse from within.
3. Improved Operational Efficiency: Just in time access streamlines the process of revoking or granting permissions, as they are allocated when necessary, aiding in operational efficiency. By automating and minimizing manual intervention in assigning privileges, Forma enables quicker response times, reduced administrative overload, and better resource allocation.
4. Simplified Compliance Auditing: The just in time privilege escalation provides an effective way for organizations to document who has access to critical resources and when they were accessed. This makes regulatory compliance easier as organizations can account for every access or privilege escalation, facilitating audit trails, and transparency for internal reviews or regulatory checks.
1. System Upgrades: When updating or introducing new features to the Forma system, just-in-time admin access can be granted to the IT team to install, test, and troubleshoot the necessary upgrades without providing permanent administrative access.
2. Emergency Situations: In the case of system failure or cyber security threat, just-in-time admin permissions can be given to quickly resolve the issue and safeguard the system, providing controlled and monitored access to sensitive data.
3. User Support: For specific user issues which require high level access to address, just-in-time admin access can be used to swiftly resolve the problem while maintaining system security and tracking all performed actions.
