Zero Standing Privileges: Securing the Cloud to Drive Developer Success

Zero Standing Privileges: Securing the Cloud to Drive Developer Success

Pages 10 Pages

Cloud adoption has made developers highly privileged identities with access to sensitive resources, creating major risks if standing access is left unchecked. Traditional PAM and even just-in-time access fall short in dynamic cloud environments, where entitlements can persist and be exploited. CyberArk advocates Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP), which removes all default entitlements and grants only time-bound, approved access to specific resources when needed. By managing time, entitlements, and approvals (T.E.A.), ZSP secures cloud workloads without slowing developer velocity, reducing shadow IT and privilege sprawl. This enables faster, safer software delivery while maximizing risk reduction.
