Just-In-Time (JIT) access is a security feature where access rights to network resources, services, or applications are granted to users on an as-needed basis, and are removed when the need is over. This helps minimize a breach by reducing the window of opportunity for attackers, as users do not have constant access. This approach is used in the zero trust model in cybersecurity to enhance data protection.
1. Enhanced Least Privilege Access Control: Just-in-time access and privilege escalation in Vanta ensures that users only have the minimum access required to perform their specific tasks. This enhances the security posture by reducing potential attack vectors and risks associated with perpetual administrative privileges.
2. Mitigation of Insider Threats: By providing just-in-time access privileges, Vanta significantly reduces the risk of insider threats. This mechanism inhibits unauthorized access and deters malignant or nefarious actions from insiders by only granting rights when necessary and revoking them immediately after use.
3. Streamlined Operational Efficiency: Just-in-time access promotes operational efficiency by automating the process of granting and revoking privileges in real-time, reducing the overhead of managing user access rights. This dynamic system eliminates unnecessary waiting times, enhancing productivity, and improving operational workflows.
4. Facilitated Compliance Auditing: Vanta's just-in-time access and privilege escalation simplifies the process of auditing for compliance purposes. With automatic logging of all access activities, auditors can easily trace and verify the allocation and use of privileges, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards such as HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001 and more.
1. Incident Response: In a scenario where a security incident has occurred, such as a suspicious activity or breach, a team member can be granted just-in-time admin access to Vanta to aid in investigating and resolving the issue.
2. Audits/Compliance Checks: To facilitate audits or compliance checks, an external auditor or internal reviewer could be given JIT admin access to Vanta to review security configurations, policies, and protocols without granting them permanent access.
3. Temporary Project Work: If a consultant or agency is hired for a specific project that requires access to sensitive security information in Vanta (e.g., system optimization, security enhancement), just-in-time admin access can be used to give them limited-time access just for the duration of the project.
