Elevation Window

Without just-in-time elevation...
Standing admin access everywhere
Team members keep permanent admin privileges just in case they need them. Most of the time those elevated permissions sit unused — but fully exploitable.
Over-privileged accounts
When everyone has admin access by default, a single compromised account can cause damage across every client platform in your portfolio.
No time limits on elevation
Once someone gets admin access, there is no mechanism to automatically downgrade them. Elevated permissions persist indefinitely until someone manually revokes them.
Key Benefits
What makes it powerful
Elevation Windows
Temporary elevation by design
Elevated permissions are granted for a specific window — 1 hour, 4 hours, 1 day. When the window closes, permissions automatically return to baseline.
Window Policies
Config change
Campaign edit
Account restructure
Configurable time windows
Set elevation durations that match your workflows. Quick config changes take an hour, campaign restructures might need a day. You define the right window for each scenario.
Audit Log
Full audit trail for every elevation
Every elevation request, approval, and expiry is logged. Know exactly who had elevated access, when, why, and what they did during their window.
How it works
Step by step
Google Ads → Admin
Reason: Campaign restructure needed
Request elevation
A team member requests elevated access for a specific platform and selects the time window they need. They provide a reason for the elevation request.
Manager approves
The designated manager receives the request and can approve, deny, or adjust the time window before granting elevation. Full context is provided for informed decisions.
Auto-expires on schedule
Once the time window closes, elevated permissions are automatically revoked and the user returns to their baseline access level. No manual follow-up needed.
