Just-In-Time Access Security as Code

Just-In-Time Access Security as Code makes that possible. It transforms access control from a static, always-on gate into a fast, automated, time-bound function. Instead of granting credentials that linger, you define rules in code that spin up access exactly when it’s needed and tear it down as soon as the job is done.

This approach eliminates standing privileges. Every permission is temporary, provisioned on demand, enforced by your CI/CD pipeline or infrastructure as code tools. You version it, test it, and deploy it like any other application component. That means fewer attack surfaces, tighter compliance, and complete alignment with zero trust principles.

With Just-In-Time Access as Code, authorization policies live alongside your application codebase. You manage them through pull requests. You see every change in Git history. Automated workflows integrate with identity providers, secrets managers, and ephemeral credential issuers. The rules become part of your devops cadence—not an afterthought in an admin console.

Security teams gain instant visibility. Developers get frictionless workflows. Auditors see evidence in seconds. Removing permanent keys or tokens stops lateral movement and insider threats before they start. The operational overhead of manual review vanishes when the system automates request approval, context checks, and revocation.

The result is security that is precise, fast, and ruthless about minimizing exposure. It answers the question: who has access, right now, and for how long? The answer should always be — only who needs it, for only as long as they need it.
