Race to Zero: From Standing Privilege to
Just-in-Time Access in 75 Minutes

Tuesday, September 22, 2026  |   10:30am BST
Standing privilege has had a good run. Most teams know that persistent privileged access is a risk — but many assume that moving to just-in-time (JIT) access entails a long, painful transformation.

It doesn't. Welcome to Race to Zero — a hands-on virtual lab where security and DevOps teams will work together to build a real zero standing privilege (ZSP) model from scratch in a live, browser-based environment. Hosted by Delinea and StrongDM, this interactive experience will put you on the clock as you race through three guided steps that demonstrate what modern, secure access looks like in practice. 

 

What you'll experience:
In just 75 minutes, you'll go from concept to implementation as you:

  • Build a just-in-time access workflow: Create a practical JIT access model designed to reduce standing privilege and improve operational efficiency.

  • Stand up database access through StrongDM: See how fast secure infrastructure and database access can be deployed in a real-world environment.

  • Layer in MFA + policy enforcement: Apply MFA and implement a Cedar-based policy to govern and enforce access controls.

Who should attend this webinar?

  • CISOs and security leaders responsible for privileged access strategy

  • IAM and PAM program leads looking to reduce standing privilege

  • Security architects evaluating just-in-time access models

  • DevOps and DevSecOps engineers managing access in live environments

  • IT security managers who want to see just-in-time access built in real time

Get answers to these important questions:

  • How quickly can JIT access be deployed without disrupting existing operations?

  • How do Delinea and StrongDM work together to enforce privileged access controls?

  • What does a Cedar-based policy look like in practice?

  • How do I make the case for zero standing privilege (ZSP) within my organization?

  • What does a zero standing privilege (ZSP) model look like once fully implemented?

What's included:

  • 75-minute interactive lab
  • Certificate of Attendance for CPE submission

  • Live Q&A

  • Competition & Prizes — Win a £100 Amazon Gift Voucher
