Britive joins AWS Security Hub Extended Plan to eliminate standing privileges across 

Cloud security firm Britive announced that its unified privileged access management (PAM) platform is now integrated with the Extended Plan in AWS Security Hub – Amazon Web Services’ consolidated enterprise security offering. 

The move gives AWS customers a streamlined path to enforcing Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP), a model that eliminates persistent access rights and replaces them with ephemeral, just-in-time credentials minted at runtime. 

The integration covers human users, machine identities including service accounts and APIs, and the rapidly-growing agentic AI – autonomous software systems that act independently within enterprise environments. 

As organizations accelerate AI adoption, managing access for these non-human actors has become a critical and often underserved security challenge: 

“The AWS Security Hub Extended Plan delivers the end-to-end framework enterprises need most: total visibility, unified control, and runtime enforcement,” said Art Poghosyan, Britive co-founder and CEO. 

“Customers can now identify risk through a unified identity registry, govern it via a common policy engine, and execute runtime enforcement to mint dynamic, ephemeral privileges at the moment of request.” 

Through the integration, Britive’s platform reduces the attack surface across multi-cloud, hybrid, SaaS, on-prem, and AI workload environments by ensuring standing privileges are eliminated before they can be exploited. 

The AWS Security Hub Extended Plan itself bundles AWS-native detection services with vetted partner solutions spanning endpoint, identity, and security operations – all accessible through simplified AWS procurement and consolidated support. 

Chetan Jha, Head of Identity & Vulnerability Management at financial technology firm Marqeta, offered a customer perspective on the announcement: 

“As we expand our use of automation on AI and AWS, managing privileged access across human, service, and agentic identities has become a priority,” he noted. “Britive gives us consistent controls across environments.”

Britive is currently available in the AWS Security Hub Extended Plan across all commercial AWS regions.
