THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY CODE
IAM roles and policies are defined by Cloud Cover as infrastructure as code (IAC), and are deployed into our AWS accounts using a CI/CD pipeline. We use AWS roles that can be assumed, rather than users, to prevent the use of long-lived static credentials. Introduce the ability to provide automatic, day one access (birthright) to the AWS accounts, and make it easy for IT support staff to process access requests quicklyĬloud Cover is a tool that provides employees access to our AWS accounts through the use of temporary IAM role credentials.This includes keeping an audit trail to see who requested certain permissions and when these were deployed Have a central place where we can keep track of, and control permissions.

Leverage Okta (our single sign-on solution) as the source of truth for IAM role federation (i.e.Part of this requirement for us is to allow engineers to request additional IAM permissions in a self-service, but safe and governed, way Ensure engineers get their work done securely, but without unnecessarily compromising their efficiency.Integrate well-known security best practices, such as the principle of least privilege, into our IAM model.When we designed Cloud Cover, a few things were important to us: Cloud Cover was born to reduce the chance of IAM misconfigurations in our AWS environments. One of the most common tactics attackers use to escalate privileges in cloud environments is to abuse overly permissive identity and access policies. MotivationĪWS IAM is at the heart of AWS Security, and as our organisation scales, we need to ensure a robust and consistent IAM model across our AWS accounts. To tackle this (not-so-easy) problem, we have developed an automated and scalable solution to consistently and flexibly manage IAM in our AWS accounts. It’s the task of the Security Team at Afterpay to manage this risk, while at the same time making sure that engineers are not slowed down in their everyday tasks. We know that a single Identity and Access Management (IAM) misconfiguration in our AWS environment can lead to compromise of our entire cloud environment. Patriot Mobile is a proud supporter of The Charlie Kirk Show, and you can support their efforts by becoming a customer at /CharlieJust like the cliché says, security is only as strong as the weakest link. Was Kyle a hero? Was he a victim? Next up, Jack welcomes Glenn Story, CEO of Patriot Mobile, and Leigh Wambsganss, VP of Government Affairs of Patriot Mobile, after they were targeted in a lengthy piece from NBC entitled, "How a far-right, Christian cellphone company ‘took over’ four Texas school boards." Jack lets Glenn and Leigh tell the true story of how they worked diligently to win back school boards in Texas, setting a model for parents and business partners all across the country. Drew, an eye witness, and Jack take issue with the Newsweek piece, which conveniently omits key details and facts from that night while attacking TPUSA which hosted him last December in Phoenix at AmFest following his exoneration. Jack Posobiec, in his last guest hosting appearance filling in for Charlie Kirk, welcomes Drew Hernandez, TPUSA Host of "Frontlines" to dismantle an OpEd in "Newsweek" which takes aim at Kyle Rittenhouse on the two year anniversary of the shooting which left two dead, and another injured, and forever altered Kyle's life. McDonald gives tangible as well as psychological advice that each can apply to their own lives and communities to help rid the country of its addiction to fear. A wholly novel mind virus to the traditional American psyche, Dr. Much like the famous AA 12 step process to recovery, McDonald walks through all 12 steps that apply equally to the country as a whole, as well as to each and every individual who has fallen prey to the "dealers" and "pushers" of fear. A clinical psychiatrist, McDonald explains that America, much like an alcoholic or a drug addict, has become a slave to an addiction that holds it in a vice grip, robbing it of its potential to thrive. Charlie welcomes back to the show, Mark McDonald, M.D., author of the new book, "Freedom from Fear: A 12 Step Guide to Personal and National Recovery" for a fascinating look at America's addiction to fear exposed most poignantly during the COVID-19 pandemic.
