What is privileged access management?
The practice of controlling and monitoring the use of privileged access.
Privileged access management (PAM) is the practice of controlling and monitoring the use of privileged access (i.e., administrative or superuser access) within an organisation.
This typically involves the use of security measures and controls to ensure that only authorized users are granted access to privileged accounts and functions, and that the use of such privileges is monitored and audited.
Privileged access management is important because it helps to protect against unauthorised access to sensitive systems and data, and to ensure that only authorised users are able to perform certain actions that could have a significant impact on the organization.
Some common components of Privileged access management include privileged account password management, least privilege principles, access control, and auditing and reporting.
