Description
"Least privilege" is the total entitlements required to perform a job over time. But has the time come to redefine least privilege as the minimum "what is needed right now for the task at hand" and not "what might I need right now"? Identity guru Ian Glazer makes the case that this is the direction we need to go.
Questions
- How does zero standing privilege differ from least privilege or zero trust?
- Does zero standing privilege apply to workforce only, or also to consumer / citizen?
- If we are moving to "task granularity" from "person granularity", what are the minimum features that enterprise software vendors would need to implement zero standing privilege?
- Do we need new OAuth standard to implement Zero Standing Privilege, like the Replacement Txn-Token Flow. In step 6, how would you know what token to issue in response to the request?
