Best Practices for Using JIT Access as Part of Developer Observability
JIT Access, sometimes referred to as just-in-time provisioning or just-in-time privileged access management (JIT PAM), is a security strategy that grants users access privileges for limited time periods. Access is granted on an “as-needed” basis. For example, if a developer requires access to a specific platform for a week or as part of an on-call access to production duty, a JIT Access system can provide that access and automatically revoke it after the time period ends.
