Users are given no more authorizations than necessary, so legitimate users get access only to the resources they need to perform their duties, but nothing else. The principle of least privilege is a foundational tenet of cybersecurity designed to limit user access to the minimum levels of access needed to perform a function. ![]() What do you need to do to get from the current state of dysfunction to a place where you can ensure least privilege access? Everyone from small and medium-sized businesses to global enterprises and local to national public sector agencies is contending with challenges related to complexity and visibility.Īt a time when leading cybersecurity organizations and governments are saying it is time to adopt the zero-trust security model, the question is how. Recent high-profile disruptions and breaches illustrate the challenges of trying to operate multiple products and vendors as an integrated solution. This traditional approach has been difficult from the outset, but now they are hopelessly ill-suited to today’s highly distributed networks. Yet many security teams continue to try and weave an array of products from multiple vendors into tightly integrated platforms that span remote sites, corporate facilities, and multi-cloud deployments.
