Just-in-Time Access To EKS
Apono simplifies access granting by turning a manual process into an automated context-aware process.
Amazon EKS, or Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service, is a managed Kubernetes service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS). It simplifies the process of deploying, managing, and scaling containerized applications using Kubernetes on AWS infrastructure. It provides a scalable, reliable, and secure platform for running production-grade Kubernetes workloads in the cloud.
Just-in-Time (JIT) access involves assigning permissions to users or systems in real-time as needed, rather than maintaining continuous access. This strategy is frequently employed in cybersecurity to reduce the risk of security breaches by restricting unnecessary access. It aligns with the principle of least privilege (POLP), emphasizing that users should only have the minimum access levels required to fulfill their tasks.
Use Cases
Developer JIT Access
- Limit access to the minimum required permissions and implement strict controls on when those permissions are granted. JIT access helps enhance overall security. This proactive approach reduces the risk of unauthorized access and potential security breaches.
- Integrate JIT access with your incident response plan. In the event of a security incident, having the ability to quickly adjust access permissions can be crucial for containing and mitigating the impact.
- Utilize JIT access with your identity management systems. This integration streamlines the process of aligning access permissions with changes in user roles, making it more efficient and less prone to errors.
