What is Just-in-Time Privileged Access Management?


JIT privileged access management provides users with temporary, elevated access to resources and systems for a limited period. Once the task is over, these elevated access rights are automatically revoked. Here’s what JIT has in store for you:

  • Unlike continuous "always-on" access, Just-in-Time privileged access management offers granular privileges only for a while.
  • The miniOrange Just-in-Time access management solution reduces the exposure time and risk associated with permanent access rights and aligns with the principles of zero trust standing privileges.
  • Identity Access Management (IAM) and Privileged Access Management (PAM) strategies ensure that privileged access is strictly controlled and limited to authorized individuals only when necessary.
  • The miniOrange JIT solution monitors user sessions, audits logs, and keeps the access window short.
