Managing privileged access across a sprawling IT environment remains one of cybersecurity’s toughest balancing acts. Admin privileges are often granted too broadly and retained for too long, opening dangerous pathways for lateral movement and ransomware.
In this episode, Rob Allen, chief product officer at ThreatLocker, introduces their Elevation Control tool — a solution designed to help security teams remove unnecessary privileges, apply just-in-time elevation for specific apps, and restrict lateral movement, even within elevated sessions. Joining him are Mike Woods, vp of cybersecurity at GE Vernova, and Steve Zalewski, co-host of Defense in Depth.
