You don't need to choose between speed and security. You need better access mechanics.
DevOps has one job: ship faster.
Security has one job: reduce risk.
Too often, those goals seem to clash. The result? Compromised secrets in code, shadow admin accounts, and security tools that devs work around—not with.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
With a modern CPAM strategy built around Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP) and Just-in-Time (JIT) access, security becomes a built-in, automated part of your DevOps flow—not a bottleneck to be bypassed.
🚨 The Friction Is Real
In most cloud pipelines today:
- Devs have standing admin rights in test and staging—sometimes prod.
- CI/CD tools use hardcoded credentials with sweeping privileges.
- Manual approvals delay deploys or force risky shortcuts.
- Nobody really knows who accessed what, or why.
The cost? Slower releases. Increased attack surface. Frustrated teams.
🧩 The IVI Fix: CPAM, Baked Into Your Pipeline
We integrate CPAM with your DevOps ecosystem to make security work at DevOps speed. Here’s how:
- JIT Access for Devs
Developers request and receive time-bound, scoped privileges through Slack, CLI, or ticketing. No standing admin access. No manual ticket chasing.
- JIT for Automation
CI/CD tools get ephemeral credentials injected at runtime—no more static secrets baked into YAML or scripts.
- Secrets That Don’t Linger
CPAM rotates credentials automatically and delivers them just in time, ensuring secrets expire after use.
- Policy as Code
Define access rules in YAML, version them with app code, and deploy via your CI/CD pipeline. Security moves at the speed of Git.
- Session Recording & Logs
Every access is logged, reviewed, and auditable—down to the command, down to the line.
🧪 Use Case: Secure a Hotfix in Production
A dev hits a critical bug at 10pm on a Friday. With CPAM:
- They request prod access via Slack.
- Policy auto-approves access for 1 hour.
- Permissions are granted, audited, and automatically revoked.
- No tickets, no gatekeeping, no unnecessary standing access.
Fix deployed. Risk minimized. Everyone goes home.
✅ The Outcomes
✔️ Faster, more secure deploys
✔️ Fewer credentials in code
✔️ Elimination of over-provisioned roles
✔️ Happier developers, safer infrastructure
When security doesn’t slow teams down, they don’t try to go around it. They go with it.
Bring CPAM Into the Dev Cycle
Whether you’re running Terraform, GitHub Actions, or Jenkins, we can embed privileged access controls that move at code speed.
