Ep 13: Extending Dynamic Access Management for Clouds, Networks, and Systems

Cloud PAM built for all identities across all cloud & hybrid environments: https://www.britive.com/ In this episode of Access Granted, Nauman Mustafa sits down with Shahzad Ali, Principal Architect at Britive, to break down the evolving world of privileged access management (PAM) and how modern environments demand a new approach. Together, they dive into the shift away from traditional vault-based PAM models to dynamic, just-in-time (JIT) access and Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP). Securing all identities in the cloud, human and non-human, AI-driven workflows across cloud and hybrid environments requires permissioning that can keep up with the needs of the cloud. They talk the why behind how identity has become the new security perimeter, and why securing access must extend beyond users to include systems, workloads, infrastructure devices, and agentic AI. Key topics include: How the definition of privileged access has changed in cloud-native, distributed environments. Why static credentials and vault-only solutions no longer meet today’s security needs. The role of Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP) in enabling true just-in-time access for all identities. Extending dynamic, ephemeral access controls to routers, switches, firewalls, and IoT devices. Why organizations must rethink infrastructure security alongside cloud IAM modernization. Actionable advice for CISOs and security leaders on building a modern, scalable, and secure access management program. 🤖 Learn more about how Britive is securing agent-based AI access: https://www.britive.com/use-cases/agentic-ai-security  🍏 Listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/access-granted/id1770083136   📺 Watch Access Granted on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLotHzn4KKa4K7qanA_Oi2-LZagw_mINyA
