Privileged Access management (PAM)

Privileged access management (PAM) is an identity security solution that helps protect organizations against cyberthreats by monitoring, detecting, and preventing unauthorized privileged access to critical resources.

PAM consists of cybersecurity strategies & technologies for exerting control over privileged access and permissions for users, accounts, and systems.

PAM provides administrators with the functionality, automation and reporting they need to manage privileged accounts. In addition, it supports the principle of least privilege as it allows for the necessary management and oversight to mitigate the risk of accounts that have capabilities beyond the standard user.
