Adding More Access Control Layers with Contextual Access
Context is key in access management. By analyzing the context of each access attempt, such as location, device, and behavior patterns, you can limit access for high-risk users. This ensures that only those with valid contextual information can access the appropriate resources.
What is Contextual Access?
Contextual Access Management is a security approach that regulates user access to resources based on various contextual factors. These factors include the user's location, device, network, time of access, and behavior patterns. By evaluating these elements, organizations can make dynamic access decisions, allowing or denying access based on the perceived risk associated with the context. This method enhances security by ensuring that access is granted only when certain conditions are met, reducing the likelihood of unauthorized access while maintaining operational flexibility and efficiency.
Contextual-Based Access Features
IP Based Access
IP based access control is a security measure used to restrict or grant access to resources based on the IP address of the requesting client
Geo-location Based Access
Geolocation-based access control restricts or grants access to resources based on the geographical location of the requesting client
Time Based Access
Time-based access control restricts or grants access to resources based on specific time criteria.
Device Based Access
Device-based access control restricts or grants access to resources based on the characteristics and attributes of the device used by the user to access those resources.
Role Based Access
Role-based access control grants access to users based on the role and company-defined policies for that role to access resources.
Benefits of Using Contextual-Based Access
Prevent Multiple Device Login
Implementing session controls and limit the number of concurrent sessions a user can be restricted with multiple login and allowing only single device login
Detect Abnormality and Restrict Access
Cybercriminals tend to compromise user credentials or their devices, and try to access by changing their location frequently. Such anomalies behavior can be detected and restricted from accessing resources
Limit Access for Third Party Contractors
Using time based access, third party contractors can be assigned limited time window to access applications and perform their tasks.
Secure Access for Remote Employees
With device-based access, remote employees access can be granted only if they are accessing from company-owned and compliant devices.
