The “verify once, trust forever” model is obsolete. Learn how Universal Privileged Access Authorization (UPAA) closes the authorization gap with real-time, context-aware control over every privileged action across humans, machines, and agents.

StrongDM is a secure access platform for managing and auditing access to databases, servers, and Kubernetes clusters, offering centralized access control and audit logs. Users can learn about access management, security best practices, and compliance requirements to ensure secure and compliant access to their infrastructure and data.

Traditional privileged access management based on credential verification is obsolete in modern machine-driven environments. The authorization gap allows compromised credentials to grant extended undetected access. Universal Privileged Access Authorization (UPAA) introduces a new architectural approach with runtime authorization for every action, eliminating standing privileges through continuous policy evaluation across all identities (human, machine, and agent). This control plane unifies access management across hybrid environments, replaces static secrets with dynamic entitlements, and enforces zero standing privilege without disrupting operations.
