Zero-Trust Approach to Privilege management: Lab Series
RCCE students will learn endpoint privilege management including least-privilege enforcement, local administrator account removal, application elevation controls, and just-in-time access provisioning. RCCE students will learn to implement privilege management solutions that remove standing administrator access from endpoints, configure application-level elevation policies, manage service account privileges, implement just-in-time and just-enough-access models, audit privilege usage across the environment, detect and respond to privilege escalation attempts, and measure the reduction in attack surface achieved through privilege management programs. This zero-trust course applies modern security principles including least privilege, continuous verification, and explicit trust evaluation. Starting from foundational concepts, RCCE students will learn to implement zero-trust architectures that assume breach and verify every access request regardless of network location. Students build practical zero-trust implementations that align with organizational security modernization goals.
