Introduction to the Britive Cloud Native Privileged Access Management (PAM) Platform
Understanding Britive
Britive is a leading cloud-native privileged access management (PAM) platform purpose-built to secure and manage access for both human and non-human identities across multi-cloud and hybrid on-prem environments. Everything we do at Britive is designed to address the unique challenges of managing identities in modern, complex infrastructures.
With our agentless, cross-functionally aligned PAM solution, Britive empowers development teams, platform engineers, and security professionals to securely and seamlessly manage dynamic access without compromising security, innovation, or operational efficiency.
Key Features and Capabilities
Proactively Mitigate Identity & Access Risks with Zero Trust: Britive ensures your security framework operates on a true Zero Trust foundation. By granting temporary, just-in-time (JIT) permissions and validating access at every layer, Britive reduces risks while maintaining smooth integration with your existing cloud security and tech stack.
Patented Just-in-Time (JIT) Access: Britive eliminates standing privileges by providing ephemeral, time-limited access that is automatically revoked after use. This approach minimizes the identity attack surface by separating permissions from credentials, ensuring enhanced security across cloud platforms, applications, servers, databases, and Kubernetes environments.
Unified Access Management: Centralize identity security for both human and non-human identities, ensuring consistent policies, granular permissions, and complete visibility across multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
Simplified Compliance & Audit Readiness: Britive simplifies adherence to regulatory requirements like NYDFS, SOC2, and PCI by automating compliance reporting and providing auditable logs. Centralized identity and permissions management, combined with Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP), streamlines access reviews and audit processes.
Self-Service Access with Access Builder: Empower end-users to create and obtain permissions instantly using Access Builder. This feature eliminates delays and reduces back-and-forth between teams while maintaining strict security standards and upholding Zero Standing Privileges.
DevOps & Automation Workflow Support with PyBritive: Britive’s open-source CLI tool, PyBritive, integrates seamlessly with developer workflows and CI/CD systems. It enables frictionless and secure time-bound JIT permissions, secures non-human identities (NHIs) and automations, eliminates static secrets like API tokens, and enforces least privilege principles.
Secrets Management & Credential Vaulting: Protect sensitive data with Britive’s enterprise-grade Secrets Manager. Temporary, policy-driven, auto-expiring access ensures secure handling of sensitive information that cannot be managed ephemerally.
Rapid Scalability: Deploy Britive quickly and adapt to enterprise growth by managing access for an increasing number of identities across evolving infrastructures, tools, and workflows—across any cloud and hybrid environments, for both human and non-human identities.
