Cosmos DB is a globally distributed database service provided by Microsoft Azure. It is designed to handle large volumes of structured and semi-structured data across multiple geographic regions. Cosmos DB offers high availability and low latency through its multi-model approach, which supports various data models such as key-value, graph, column-family, and document-based databases. This flexibility allows developers to choose the most suitable data model for their specific application requirements. Cosmos DB also provides automatic indexing, horizontal scalability, and built-in support for multi-master replication, making it an ideal choice for modern cloud-based applications that require fast and reliable access to data.
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.
