Just-in-Time Access To Jumpcloud Identities

With Apono you’ll be able to create dynamic Access Flows that grant on-demand permissions with high granularity and full audit, giving JumpCloud identity admins with the ability to create dynamic roles, create tag-based access flows, and restrict access by time and resources.

Just-inTime
(JIT)

Jenkins is an open-source automation server that facilitates the continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) of software projects. It is widely used by development teams to automate the building, testing, and deployment of software applications, helping to streamline the software development process and improve overall efficiency and reliability.

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.
