Enhancing Security with Just-In-Time Access Control Just-In-Time (JIT) access control is a powerful security feature that provides temporary access to resources based on specific conditions. This dynamic approach allows organizations to reduce the risk of unauthorized access while ensuring that users have the necessary permissions to perform their tasks. How Does Just-In-Time Access Control Work? Unlike traditional access control methods that rely on static permissions, JIT access control grants temporary access to users based on predefined policies. When a user requests access to a resource, the system evaluates the request against the access policies and dynamically assigns the necessary permissions....
