Abstract
The disclosed embodiments include systems and methods for dynamically managing privileged access for non-privileged accounts. Operations may include receiving a request from a computer device associated with a network account to access a privileged resource, wherein the network account lacks any privileged account membership enabling the network account to access the privileged resource. Operations may include authenticating the network account, and assigning, based on the authentication, privileged on-demand membership for the network account, wherein the privileged on-demand membership enables the network account to access the privileged resource. Operations may also include identifying that the network account should no longer have access to the privileged resource, and removing, based on the identification, the privileged on-demand membership for the network account.
