Just-in-Time and Zero Standing Privilege Solutions

AI agents, developers, and service accounts now operate across trust boundaries that make standing access a liability—and zero standing privilege (ZSP) the right response. Too much privilege exposes the organization; too little disrupts the work.

Delinea enforces least privilege at every layer, from credential vaulting and identity governance to the infrastructure where access decisions execute. Delinea Iris AI, the platform's intelligence engine, supports both ephemeral and credential-based access across every human, machine, and AI identity.

Our policy engine spans infrastructure, databases, Kubernetes, and AI-driven workflows, extending least-privilege enforcement beyond the initial access request. Access is granted just-in-time (JIT) and revoked when tasks complete. If actions fall outside policy, access is blocked in real time.

Deliver seamless access to users—only when needed

Secure privilege in hybrid environments  

Secure human and machine identities in complex IT environments by enforcing least privilege principles. Gain visibility into entitlements, identify misconfigurations, and automate remediation of critical issues in real time, reducing risks across multi-cloud and on-premises environments, while ensuring compliance and operational efficiency.

Streamline and centralize secure server access 

Enhance security by enforcing least privilege principles across Windows, Linux, and Unix systems. Centralize access management for critical server infrastructure, prevent lateral movement, and ensure compliance through detailed auditing and session recording, reducing the risk of breaches and improving productivity for IT admins.

Secure local admin rights on workstations

Enhance endpoint security by enforcing least privilege and application control on local machines. Remove local admin rights, automate password rotation, and manage application access to reduce vulnerabilities and ensure compliance without disrupting user productivity.

Secure servers with cloud controls 

Consolidate identities across multiple identity directory services such as Active Directory (AD), OpenLDAP, Ping Identity, and Azure AD using cloud-based controls. Apply zero trust principles, enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA), and secure remote access to servers, reducing security risks and simplifying compliance in hybrid cloud environments.

Enforce just-in-time access for servers 

Centrally manage access rights and identity profiles for servers to reduce the risk of unauthorized access while ensuring security policies are uniformly applied across server infrastructure. Enable fine-grained control of server access for IT admins so they gain access to what they need, when they need it, while maintaining the principle of least privilege.

Enforce zero standing privilege across infrastructure, databases, Kubernetes, and AI agents

Enforce zero standing privilege across servers (SSH/RDP), databases, Kubernetes clusters, cloud consoles (AWS, GCP, Azure), web applications, and AI-driven workflows. NHIs—CI/CD pipelines, GitOps controllers, and automation workflows—request just-in-time access through the same approval processes as human users. Sensitive operations stay under policy controls.
