Rolling out access hours at Temporal

Temporal has implemented Just in Time (JIT) access using Common Fate, which limits user access only to the time they need it and for the duration of their request. This approach significantly improves security posture by reducing hours of access from 100% to just 23.8%. By implementing JIT access, Temporal has reduced the number of access hours to under 5% of the previous amount. The use of JIT access also decreases background noise for detection and response tools, making it easier to identify anomalous activity. Additionally, giving users what they want initially can help with a smoother transition to JIT access while still providing significant security benefits.
