The Challenge

## The Real Risk Starts After Login

### Too Many Scams, Too Much Access

Once inside, attackers exploit static entitlements and excessive access to steal data, hijack identities, and automate scams. Only dynamic, context-aware policy can stop them in real time.

### The Rise of Agentic AI

Autonomous systems are challenging the trust between customers, providers, and third-parties. To secure them, you need to grant precise, time-bound access with human-in-the-loop controls.

### Authorization Sprawl

Hard-coded logic is scattered across apps and APIs, which creates blind spots and operational complexity. To mitigate the risk, you need unified access decisions with external policies.

The Solution

## Control Every Access Decision

Stop fraud before it starts. Keep agentic AI risk low. Simplify your authorization with dynamic, fine-grained policy decisions made in real time.

With Ping, you can externalize and centralize authorization, so that every human or AI agent requesting access gets an instant decision based on context and risk. And you can deploy anywhere across SaaS, hybrid, or on-prem environments. One platform. One policy engine. Total control.

### Flexible Policy Models

Support RBAC, ABAC, PBAC, and relationship‑based patterns for complex sharing.

### Enforce Anywhere

Apply allow/deny/filter/redact responses at gateways, services, and data layers.

### Real-Time Signals

Make decisions using identity, entitlements, risk, consent, and transaction data.

### Low Latency, High Scale

Cache and localize decisions, so applications perform at peak speed.

### SDKs & Integrations

Connect to your IdPs, developer tools, and API gateways (AWS, Kong, Apigee).

### DevOps Friendly

Promote to your dev, test, and prod environments, and use version history for rollbacks.

## Works with   
 What You Have

You don’t need a wholesale rebuild to get dynamic authorization. Just plug into your existing IdPs, gateways, and data services. Start with one app or API, and expand at your own pace.

"Ping’s solutions give us the flexible authorization capability we need to minimize friction and deliver a customer-centric experience.”

## Frequently Asked Questions

Choosing a PAM solution is a big decision. We’re here to help. We’ve got answers to common questions about our just-in-time privileged access.

### How do organizations authorize AI agents and non-human identities?

AI agents require delegated, time-bound permissions that define what actions they may perform and on whose behalf. Policy-based authorization governs these actions dynamically with full visibility and control.

### What are delegated entitlements?

Delegated entitlements allow users, partners, or AI agents to act on behalf of others within clearly defined limits. They enable trusted relationships while keeping access precise, revocable, and auditable.

### What is policy-based access control (PBAC)?

Policy-based access control determines what an authenticated identity is allowed to do using centralized, real-time policies. It evaluates access based on context, risk, and relationships rather than static roles.

### Why is authorization an extension of authentication?

Authentication establishes who an identity is, and authorization extends that trust by governing what actions the identity can take. This ensures access remains appropriate, contextual, and enforceable after login.

### How does dynamic authorization help prevent fraud and scams?

Dynamic authorization evaluates context such as behavior, device trust, and risk at the moment of access. This allows suspicious actions to be blocked or stepped up before fraud occurs.

### Can dynamic authorization integrate with my existing identity provider or gateway?

Yes. Our dynamic authorization is a universal service that plugs into any identity provider (IdP), API gateway, or data layer, including AWS, Apigee, Kong, and Microsoft. It externalizes access logic without requiring a full-stack replacement, delivering rapid time-to-value in hybrid and SaaS environments.

### How does dynamic authorization improve compliance and auditability?

Centralized policy management gives full visibility into who accessed what, when, and why. Every authorization decision is logged, traceable, and auditable, so enterprises can meet evolving regulatory requirements and reduce operational complexity.

### What does it mean to externalize authorization?

Externalized authorization moves access decisions out of application code into a centralized policy service. This improves agility, consistency, and auditability across applications, APIs, and digital channels.
