Cloud Guide to Achieving the Principle of Least Privilege
Why overprivileged identities are a common access point for breaches – and how prevent them
Maintaining the principle of least privilege on the public cloud is an entirely new challenge. The scale of the modern cloud provides a vast number of potential points of access and elements that can be affected by such access. In this guide we review:
- What makes the management of privileged identities so difficult?
- What kinds of people (as distinct from roles) are likely to be assigned or accumulate inflated levels of privilege?
- What are the risks of overprivileged identities?
- How can you take back control of identities and data in your public cloud?
