What is Just in Time Access?

Just-In-Time (JIT) access, in the context of cybersecurity, refers to a practice that provides temporary access to resources only when needed. Instead of providing users, especially privileged ones, with continuous access, it is granted on-demand for a certain period that is just long enough to complete a task. This method minimizes the risk of unauthorized access or potential security breaches by reducing the attack surface.

Benefits of Just in Time Access to

DocSend

1. Enhanced Least Privilege Access: Just in time access and privilege escalation enables a strict implementation of the least privilege access in DocSend. By offering access only as needed and for a limited period, it minimizes the risk of unauthorized access and data leakage, thus fortifying document security and integrity.

2. Mitigation of Insider Threats and Human Errors: This mechanism reduces the attack surface by limiting the pool of users with elevated privileges at any given time, thereby decreasing the potential for insider threats. Also, by offering precise access, it minimizes the chance for human errors that could lead to undesired information exposure or data breaches in DocSend.

3. Boosting Operational Efficiency: Just in time access coupled with just in time privilege escalation reduces the time and resources spent managing longer-term authorizations. This efficient access control strategy can also prevent document or system overloads, leading to improved operational efficiency in the DocSend environment.

4. Simplified Compliance Auditing: These features simplify the process of auditing for compliance in an organization. By involving precise, time-bound permissions, it becomes easier for audit processes to identify who had access to what and when, helping to meet various industry regulatory requirements, such as GDPR, HIPAA or SOC 2 in relation to the use of DocSend.

Use Cases for Just in Time Access to

DocSend

1. Project Collaboration: If a team is collaborating on a project and needs to share sensitive documents, a team member can be granted just in time admin access to manage and control the shared content effectively.

2. Auditing and Compliance: Admin access will be useful for auditing purposes or compliance checks. With this level of access, auditors can review all document transactions and interactions, ensuring that company policies are being observed and legal regulations are met.

3. Problem-solving and Support: If issues arise, granting a tech support personnel just in time admin access to DocSend allows them to troubleshoot and resolve problems in real time, without needing permanent full access, thus preserving data security.

How to Implement Just in Time Access to

DocSend

Entitle Just In Time Access - diagram- How to Implement Just in Time Access to

1. Planning

  • Assessment
    Identify who needs DocSend access, the resources necessary, and why they're required. Record current access rights to see if they can be minimized or removed. An entitlement discovery tool can offer improved visibility.
  • Policy creation
    Formulate clear policies about awarding and withdrawing access. Document who can request access, the circumstances, and the time duration. Specifically for privileged roles, defining time-limited parameters is crucial.
  • Source of truth
    Synchronize your Just-In-Time (JIT) access system with an Identity Provider such as Okta, Google Workspace, Azure AD or OneLogin. This will serve as your ultimate source of identities. De/escalating individual identities instead of shared accounts will provide improved authorization control and audit precision.

2. Execution

  • Self-serve access requests
    Streamline the process by making individuals request access through the system, not individuals. Boost adoption rates by integrating with IM platforms like Slack or MS Teams. Ensure that requests provide details about the requester, the necessary service/resource/role, duration, and reason.
  • Approval process
    JIT access offers organizations the chance to assign approvals to those with business understanding. Resource owners and business unit heads often have superior context than IT assistance desks. Utilize messaging platforms for prompt responses, providing approvers with all the needed information for an informed decision.
  • Conditional approval workflows
    Incorporate your predefined policies into workflows that manage access permissions. Integrate them into workflows outlining who can access what, and in which conditions. This might be achieved by employing if-then conditions, i.e., IF group “X” requests access to “Y”, get approval from “Z” and inform “M”.
  • Integrations
    Try integrating JIT Access with other IT and security systems to enhance flexibility. Link with IT ticketing systems for automated access approval based on ticket status. Connect with data classification systems to adjust policies according to data sensitivity. Ideally, it should be possible to label resources and group them to streamline the process. Collaborate with on-call scheduling software for automated approvals in emergencies. Use training systems to award access based on training completion.

3. Maintenance

  • Regular audits
    Systematically inspect access logs to check that JIT access is functioning as planned. Identify any strange patterns or behavior either directly or by integrating the logs into your SIEM. Automate user access review to quicken evidence gathering, assign reviewers, and ensure compliance with industry standards.
  • User training
    Educate users, particularly privileged ones, about least privilege, JIT Access, and its working. Make sure users know how to ask for access when necessary.
  • Feedback loop
    Constantly review your JIT access protocols. Seek input from users and IT personnel to pinpoint areas for improvement.

By adopting this systematic approach, you can effectively implement a sturdy Just-in-Time Access system for DocSend.
