Scaling Privileged Access for Modern Infrastructure Real World Insights
Implementing and scaling privileged access in modern computing environments generates new challenges for security and engineering productivity. Modern computing architectures are ephemeral, elastic, on-demand, and complex. This webinar delves into the challenges faced by platform engineering and infrastructure teams when enabling secure access in these environments.
In this session, John Capps, Vice President of Infrastructure at VIDA, a leading digital identity company operating in Indonesia, shares his team's transformative journey in securing privileged access. John outlines the initial use cases that focused on fortifying and streamlining his engineering team's access, along with subsequent expansions to cater to broader business functions and customer requirements.
Joining John is Ev Kontsevoy, the co-founder and CEO of Teleport, who provides valuable insights into key strategies for enhancing security. Ev talks through the process of eliminating secrets, consolidating identities, implementing zero trust principles, and unifying policy frameworks. These measures serve to bolster security measures and effectively mitigate the attack surfaces that are frequently targeted by threat actors today.
