What is Micro-Authorized Access?

Micro-authorized access makes permission a unit of work: one resource, for a bounded task. An application can issue a fresh grant when a person or agent needs access and revoke that grant without changing the resource identity. The useful questions are what resource it permits, who or what can use it, and when that permission ends.

A short-lived link and an authenticated user session are different controls. A bearer link can be forwarded while valid; its expiry is not automatically the lifetime of an already-open session.

How LayerV Implements This

LayerV issues access links for individual resources. Link expiry, use limits, supported policies, and session duration define the access window. Use application authentication when you need the recipient’s verified identity.

Pilot LayerV

Tell us what to protect, and we’ll scope a pilot.

Enterprise starts with a scoped, paid pilot on one application, typically 60 to 90 days, credited in full toward year one if you convert within 60 days. Then an annual package sized to what you protect. Not per seat.
