This blog is part three in a series about secure access to Amazon RDS. In Part 1, we covered how to use OSS Teleport as an identity-aware access proxy to access Amazon RDS instances running in private subnets. Part 2 explained implementing single sign-on (SSO) for Amazon RDS access using Okta and Teleport. In Part 3, we will guide you through the steps to configure privilege escalation for just-in-time access requests for Amazon RDS access.

Software development and security often have separate challenges and concerns. Developers are worried about pushing software to production in a timely manner. Security teams worry about the security of the code being pushed. Veracode offers a solution that meets the needs of both sides. On Peerspot, where Veracode is ranked number one in application security, users discuss how Veracode enables them to build an advanced application security program.

For consecutive years, applications have remained the top attack vector for black hats, with supply chain attacks not far behind. At the same time, market research indicates that enterprise security managers and software developers continue to complain that their application security tools are cumbersome. When asked, many developers admit that they don’t run security tests as often as they should, and they push code to production even when they know it has security flaws.
