Maintain the principle of least privilege for all accounts across every on-premise or SaaS infrastructure, application or system. Monitor and notify the right person of changes to authorization rights in near real-time with alerts or ticket creation.
Least Privilege
Enforcement
Problem
Unauthorized changes to an account’s permissions are not being continuously monitored, resulting in a long dwell time for these over-permissioned identities
Risk
Infrequent or incomplete discovery jobs leave you with unmanaged privileged credentials that are not centrally stored in a vault
Solution
To fully implement least privilege for all accounts, a solution must provide full visibility and scales seamlessly to discover every account’s access rights and monitor changes so that you can reliably monitor groups membership to maintain zero standing privileges
Least Privilege Enforcement Challenges
The principle of least privilege requires mapping granular access rights across distributed, cloud-based, and hybrid systems with rapidly changing user roles, complex application dependencies, and interconnected service accounts. This complexity is compounded by the need to balance stringent security controls with operational efficiency, often requiring continuous, real-time analysis of user behavior, permissions, and potential access vectors while simultaneously maintaining system performance and user productivity. Successful least privileged implementations must overcome:
- Permission Complexity: Modern enterprise environments feature thousands of intricate, overlapping permissions across multiple systems, making access mapping an exponentially difficult administrative challenge.
- Organizational Dynamics: Frequent personnel changes, role transitions, and cross-functional project work create constant permission management overhead, with legacy access rights often persisting long after their initial business justification has expired.
- Technical Heterogeneity: Diverse technology stacks, multi-cloud architectures, and legacy systems with disparate access control mechanisms make uniform privilege management extremely difficult and resource-intensive.
- Operational Friction: Implementing strict least privilege controls can introduce significant workflow disruptions, potentially reducing employee productivity and requiring extensive change management and user education.
- Detection and Remediation: Continuously identifying and automatically removing unnecessary privileges across complex environments requires sophisticated tooling and advanced analytics
Verify, implement, and enforce least privilege for every account, everywhere
