Boost cloud infrastructure security with just in time access to Lattice. Enhance control, reduce risk, and streamline operations.
Skip to the Entitle integrationJust-In-Time (JIT) access is a security feature that provides temporary access to resources only when needed, for the minimum required duration. This method helps in reducing the attack surface by limiting the unnecessary and prolonged access to critical systems. It is commonly used in cloud computing, privilege access management, and other IT systems.
1. Enhanced Least Privilege Access Control: Just in time access in Lattice enforces the principle of least privilege access by dynamically granting permission to users only when it is needed. This not only reduces the attack surface but also ensures that unauthorized access to sensitive data is minimized, enhancing overall system security.
2. Reduced Insider Threats and Human Errors: With just in time privilege escalation in Lattice, users are granted enhanced permissions momentarily for assigned tasks, significantly reducing the risk of both inadvertent mistakes and potential misuse of access rights by insiders. This proactive approach helps in boosting the security posture of an organization.
3. Improved Operational Efficiency: The Just in Time (JIT) model in Lattice automates the rule-based access granting process, eliminating the need for manual intervention and thus enhancing operational efficiency. The access is provided promptly and revoked when no longer needed, reducing dwell time and adding pace to workspace operations.
4. Streamlined Auditing for Compliance: Lattice's just in time access model offers transparency and traceability by maintaining an audit trail of privileged activities. This not only simplifies regulatory compliance for industries but also aids in quick incident response and forensics, ensuring governance, risk and compliance (GRC) objectives in line with the cybersecurity framework.
1. Incident Response - In a scenario where an unexpected security breach or incident happens, just in time admin access can be used to quickly authorize a specific cybersecurity team member to respond and mitigate the threat while limiting long-term insider risk exposure.
2. Audit and Compliance - This feature can be used during auditing processes where auditors need temporary access to certain aspects of Lattice to evaluate compliance levels or investigate an issue, thereby safeguarding the system from potential unauthorized access after the audit.
3. Limited Access Project - If a project requires temporary additional administrative privileges for a certain team, JIT admin access can be granted to enable them to execute the project efficiently - once the work is complete, the privileges can be revoked, keeping the system secure.

By adhering to this structured approach, you will be able to effectively implement a robust Just-in-Time Access system for Lattice.
Entitle provides self-serve access requests, flexible policy workflows, and automated provisioning, to restrict unneeded access across cloud infra and SaaS.
"I like Entitle because it’s one of those tools I can set up and forget about. I never have to go into it and it just works."
