Just-in-Time Access To Kubernetes
With Apono you’ll be able to create dynamic Access Flows that grant granular on-demand permissions including a full audit.
Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration platform originally developed by Google that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It provides a framework for automating the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications across clusters of hosts.
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 implementing 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.
Secure Break-glass Access
- Manage break-glass access, balancing the need for emergency access with the imperative of maintaining robust security measures.
- Implement robust logging and monitoring systems to track and record break-glass access events.
- Dynamically grant only the permissions needed for the task at hand to prevent costly mistakes in production and downtime.
Automated Access
- Escape the frustration of ticket fatigue and the time-consuming nature of manual provisioning through the implementation of automated access flows.
- Embrace innovation to revolutionize your workflow, saving time and resources, enhancing efficiency, and ensuring a secure access management system.
- Automate your access control and witness a transformative shift in permission allocation within your organization.
Apono automates access management to Kubernetes
Apono empowers you to craft dynamic Access Flows, providing on-demand permissions with meticulous granularity and comprehensive audit capabilities.
Kubernetes Dynamic Access Management
Integrate dynamic roles seamlessly into your existing role-based access control (RBAC) infrastructure, enhancing its flexibility and adaptability. Elevate your access management capabilities by introducing automated approval workflows tailored to your specific needs. This comprehensive approach not only streamlines the assignment of roles but also ensures a responsive and efficient approval process, contributing to a more robust and secure access control mechanism within your system.
Automate Kubernetes Permissions
Mitigate the challenges associated with ticket fatigue and enhance operational efficiency by seamlessly integrating automated access flows. Say goodbye to the manual provisioning grind as this innovative solution simplifies and accelerates the process, allowing for a more streamlined and user-friendly experience.
Restricted Third-Party Access
Facilitate time-based access for third parties, be they customers or vendors, by granting specific permissions to designated buckets, databases, or instances. This enhanced security measure incorporates Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) verification, ensuring that third parties authenticate their identity through multiple factors before gaining access.
Discover Existing Cluster Access
Achieve enhanced control and heightened visibility across your Kubernetes clusters, empowering you with comprehensive access management. This robust solution ensures that you have the tools and insights needed to effectively govern and monitor your Kubernetes environments.
